G.Skill RipjawsX F3-17000 CL9D 2133MHz Memory Kit Review

G.Skill have been around for quite a few years and have always focussed on providing the best memory in terms of stability and style. Whilst they have remained quiet for a little while, they are back and are throwing all of their energy into the high end memory market.

As we all know Sandybridge is the new hot thing (at least until Bulldozer arrives from AMD) and everyone is keen to jump on board and purchase the latest components in the hope of reaching the almighty 5GHz overclock. To rival that kind of performance, a performance based memory kit is needed to give that extra boost where needed the most. G.Skill believe they have done just that by releasing the RipjawsX F3-17000 CL9D 2133MHz 4GB kit marketed specifically for Sandybridge systems with lightning fast speeds and timings of 9-11-9-28-2T @ 1.6V.
