A Closer Look

The design of the FURY Renegade is pretty dramatic and a clear step up in quality and design from the BEAST I reviewed recently. There’s just a lot more going on in general, and it’s a more complex design that’s no doubt more difficult to produce too.

It’s all cut from layers of aluminium, giving it this fantastic 3D look. The FURY logo is actually cut from the same piece of aluminium as the black section below it; it’s just not been coated afterwards. They’ve even CNC’d some cool lines into it, which look pretty slick.

It appears to be a two-part construction too, with the top section having a smoother finish but still a matte painted look, while the material between those aggressive fins looks to have a more textured or sandblasted finish.

As you can see, it’s the DDR4 kit, which seems a bit strange to point out, as we know it is. However, Kingston is still doing DDR3 versions of these kits, and DDR5 is just around the corner, so I can see how things could get mixed up a little more than they usually would.

There’s a good amount of material on these modules, with thick aluminium on each side over that black PCB. While the material will help keep things cool, it’s the massive surface area this design provides which should bring the most benefit.

On the reverse side, there’s the usual sticker with all the technical numbers on it, nothing out of the ordinary though.

One thing I do love, however, is that the modules use a pair of screws to secure each side. Most memory just use some sticky glue to sandwich the RAM between the metal, but these are properly secured, and that also locks in that RGB lightbar in the top section.

The light bar is recessed into the metal, rather than sticking out, so while it should provide some nice lighting effects, it won’t be as in your face as some RAM modules RGB can be.

Overall, it’s by far some of the best-looking memory out there right now. It’s both aggressive and stylish, which isn’t easy to achieve. There’s a none RGB version too, and honestly, I think that may tempt me for a more stealthy look, but that’s obviously subjective.

Finally, we have the RGB. The colours are fantastic, and while they’re plenty vivid, they’re not overly bright and blinding like some of the kits on today’s market.

There’s an infrared light that allows the modules to sync up with each other, so the colour fade effects are always perfectly lined up. Fun fact, if you slot a business card between them, you can watch them go out of sync… if you want to, not much point though.

It’s broadly compatible with most motherboards too, and my MSI software had no issues dialling in some custom colours.
