It's the end of the year again, and many of my friends around me have also begun to build their own sea-view houses. However, for installations, there will always be a problem, that is, how to choose memory and how to squeeze the ultimate performance of memory? Today, we will take the Asgard Valkyrie at hand as an example to share with you the choice of memory and how to overclock!
799rmb 32gb！The existence of this kind of god **, if you don't start, you really can't do it! The quality is stable, the particles are reliable, and the most important thing is to withstand the toss! Asgard has long been a brand with a very good reputation in the player circle, and I have bought it many times. This Valkyrie uses Hynix's highest-spec A-Die chips that are more stable and have better overclocking performance. Even novices can get a memory preset frequency of 7000MHz by turning on XMP (tutorial attached). Let's take a look at the running score first! 
The platform used the Intel 14th Gen Core i7-14700K CPU, the GIGABYTE Z790 AORUS Elite X WiFi7 motherboard, and the main character of the test, the Asgard Valkyrie 16GBX2 RAM. 
In order to operate at 7000MHz, we need to turn on the corresponding settings in the BIOS, which is actually quite simple. First of all, we press del on the logo interface to enter the BIOS. 
In the area in the bottom left corner, find the Extreme Memory Profile (x.).m.p), click on the menu and turn on XMP1. After that, you can save and exit. At this point, the memory is already running at 7000MHz. 
Let's use Master Lu to run a score to see. It has a memory score of 442660 points for an overall score of 2367359. 
In the PerformanceTest test, it scored 4023 overall, making it into the top 2% of the sequence. It's still pretty good. 
In the Aida64 test, it read 10152GB s, 94724MB s for write, 95588MB s for copy, and 689ns。It can be seen that its performance is still very strong. 
Again, enter the BIOS interface.
We can try it according to the customized particle brand, or we can use the parameters officially provided by the memory. For the sake of convenience, here we call the prefabricated 7200 directly for testing. Since the Asgard Valkyrie uses Hynix A-die, we can relax and try. Once you press f10 to save and eject the settings, the whole overclocking process is over. From a process point of view, this is basically no difficulty. 
After overclocking, the frequency of the memory directly comes to 7200MHz, which easily lights up the host. It was tested using Entertainment Master, and as you can see, its memory score is 421296, which is quite impressive. With its bonus, the overall running score has also come to 2419234.
In addition, we also used the performancetest for testing, and its score was 4380, which is nearly double the average of 2649 in terms of overall evaluation mechanism, and it is quite OK to enter the top 1% of the series.
In addition, we also used AIDA64 to do a separate test on the memory, and it also achieved a read of 10970GB s, 97,905 Mb s write, 100,339 Mb s copy, and 64 latency1ns。It seems that DDR5 is still very fierce after XMP one-click overclocking!
The use of high-frequency memory also brings a faster response to the whole machine. This can be felt more clearly from Photoshop, Premiere, After Effects and other software that requires high memory requirements.
At the same time, in the game, in the case of the CPU and graphics card, Asgard Valkyrie also brought about a 10% increase in the frame rate, and the overall effect is quite good.
This is the outer box of the Asgard Valkyrie 16x2 sleeve, the OC means that it supports overclocking, and the following 7000 means that the official can guarantee that it can run stably at 7000MHz.
From the small window at the back, you can see the basic information of the memory.
The overall design is quite capable, and the three-dimensional spraying frosting process also brings us a great feel.
At the same time, because the Asgard Valkyrie has added a PMIC power management framework to the circuit board, it is also suitable for more motherboards, and basically the mainstream motherboards on the market can be compatible, which is quite good.
The special 2mm aluminum heat dissipation vest also ensures stable operation, even in the state of overclocking, there is no worry of overheating.
It has an RGB light bar with uniform brightness on the back, which can be customized with 16.8 million colors, and 12 sets of preset lighting effects.
8 sets of independent LED zones can also make its color more uniform and more brilliant.
It complements the overall lighting effect of the case and is very beautiful. After almost two weeks of use, the Asgard Valkyrie RGB 16x2 left us with a pretty good impression. With the blessing of the well-known Hynix A-die, the Asgard Valkyrie supports one-click XMP, and even a novice can easily go up to 7000MHz. If you have a good configuration and are a skilled person, you can also challenge for a higher frequency!Generally speaking, as a set of prices for MHZ, whether it is performance or appearance, it is the best solution for your current installation, and it is worth a try!
