GeIL EVO X Dual Channel 16GB 3000 MHz DDR4 Memory Kit Review

Performance

Cinebench

Running at 3000 MHz the GeIL Evo X is certainly competitive, hitting a score of 999 in Cinebench.

Overclocking saw a small improvement, bringing out overall score up to 1000. Not a huge increase, but with a tidy overclock of 3667, any gain is still basically free performance.

AIDA64

The AIDA64 memory bandwidth is right where I expected it to be, scoring very well in read, write and copy performance. It’s not the fastest, but it’s certainly not the slowest we’ve tested.

Overclocking did see some exceptional gains through, making it our second highest rated kit to date, with just the RoG Certified model edging a small lead.

The latency is pretty tight too, hitting just 48.9ns at stock speeds, so it’s going to be nice and responsive in any task.

Overclocking took that time down an even better 47.1, making it one of our fastest performing memory kits to date.

WPrime

Interestingly, the scores here aren’t as sharp as I would have expected. Clocking in at 5.561, and I think it should be a little under 5.5s, but it’s certainly not far from that.

Overclocking did help performance a little, hitting 5.542, but it’s still not quite where it should be.

3DMark Fire Strike

A competitive score for 3DMark too, hitting 14464 points in the Physics test. This isn’t the fastest score yet, but it’s certainly competitive, much like the WPrime score.

While we saw a score of 14464 at stock clocks, overclocking pushed that to a more competitive 14539 in the Physics test. Overall, not the quickest memory kit in the world, but not the slowest either, and pretty competitive for a 3000 MHz hit, or even a 3667 MHz kit if your motherboard can get the overclocks to post.
