GEIL Super Luce 16GB 3000MHz DDR4 Memory Review

Performance

Cinebench

Stock performance is very good, a little behind some of the other kits, but no more than 3 points behind the much faster Muskin Ridgeback.

Overclocking to 3200 MHz was easy, however it didn’t have a benefit to our Cinebench score; although few kits do!

AIDA64

AIDA Bandwidth is excellent, showing our second fastest Read and Write performance, with a competitive score for Copy too.

During overclocking tests, we saw a nice increase in Write and Copy performance. However, this came at a cost of some of the Read performance.

A fantastic score in our latency test, with just 47.6 Nano Seconds, making it one of the fastest we’ve tested. Actually, both GeIL kits we’ve tested have low latency!

Interestingly, the latency got worse with overclocking. I think 3000 MHz is really the best this memory kit can do, as performance isn’t great at 3200 MHz.

SiSoft Sandra

Competitive scores for Aggregate, Integer, and Float performance. Nothing too crazy, but about where we would expect it to be.

Overclocking helped a little, increasing the Float performance by 1GB/s.

WPrime

At stock, the Super Luce clocked our fastest time yet for WPRime, a very good score indeed!

The kit was 0.04 slower at 3200 MHz, clearly it’s not happy at these speeds.

3DMark Fire Strike

One of our best times yet again, only slightly behind the much faster Ridgeback.

No surprises here, performance actually went down again while overclocking.
