Team Group DDR4 T-Force XTREEM RAM Review 4x4GB @ 3466mhz Website http://www.teamgroupinc.com/en/product/T-Force Gaming/Gaming Memory Modules/DDR4 MEMORY MODULES/XTREEM DDR4 Video Visuals RAM comes nicely packed inside a vibrant well advertised and designed box. open the box and you'll find your modules in either Silver or Gold. I got the gold kits. One of the first things you'll notice is the striking brushed effect on the gold. The modules feel very premium, the weight alone makes you feel like you're holding something very expensive. It's extremely well designed and although the heat spreaders are aluminium, it feels like rough hematite. (Always cold stone) When i hold both the Xtreem and another brand in my hand, the Xtreem is heavier and feels like i could through it at a wall and not break it (not that i'll be testing that) Specifications and Features For this i've just pulled the details directly from the website, to save your time reading through an unorganised list ● The finest crafted heat spreader with unique trench design ● High-efficiency aluminum heat spreader ● 10 layers of circuit board ● Selected high quality SAMSUNG original IC chips ● 1.2V~1.4V ultra low working voltage ● Support Intel XMP 2.0 smart overclocking technology ● QVL approved by motherboard manufactures in the market Pictures Benchmarks System used Processor - Intel Core i7 6700k Motherboard - ASUS ROG Maximus IX Code Video card - ASUS Strix GTX 1070 OC edition OS - Windows 10 pro 64bit I'm not going to create random graphs, instead i'm going to post direct screenshots from games and software used to bench the RAM. I'll be showing you the difference between another brand RAM @ 2133mhz vs Team Group @ 3466 This should show you that speed does in fact matter. AIDA64 Memory benchmarks FireStrike Once again, i'll just post screenshots. first up T-Force Xtreem Other brand Comparison between the two Games I ran these benchmarks at 5760x1080 GTA V was first on the list, and i kept getting the same results, i done a little digging around and GTA V does seem to benfit from faster RAM. Which is weird considering no other games have any real gains. But never the less, i'll post this here anyway Rise of the tomb raider Farcry Primal I've yet to do any overclocking, but rest assured i will be adding an update to this, once i get around to overclocking the modules. Conclusion You've seen the numbers, synthetic benchmarks show that faster ram makes a huge difference. In real world performance such as games, it has a little effect. With the exception of GTA V, which seems to benifit from higher speed ram. The Team Group T-Force XTREEM comes in at $84.99 for 2x4GB and $149 for 2x8GB in the US. Over in the UK, it's £109.99 for 2x4GB and £188.99 for 2x8GB on OCUK these prices are for the 3600mhz models The price is fantastic for what you're getting. Not only are you getting high speed RAM, but that premium look and feel. Final notes If anyone would like to see more benchmarks, comment below with what you'd like to see and i'll do my best to get them up.

So i'm willing to buy a pair of 16 gig RAM and as i was searching for prices on Newegg i came across this brand called Team Group, that btw i've never heard of, here's their website = http://www.teamgroup.com.tw/en.html And this is what they claim on their website "With over 20 years of computer peripherals production and sales experience, Team Group has established strong sales and customer service centers in Taiwan, and has over 300 global sales and customer service agents. Team Group global sales made success from differentiating sales strategies through the real-time market information, focusing on market characteristics, and using global vision and localized channel management to build a tight distribution network. Team Group has always been customer driven, thus series of memory products come with a lifetime warranty. We guarantee to send highest quality RMA product into the hands of every global customer with minimum delivery time." 20 years is alot of baggage so i decided to search more about this company, see what's up, and maybe buy their products if they prove to be trustworthy, cuz damn they are cheap... look at this for example = http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820313407 A good start would be finding information about the chips used on their products, who manufactures them etc, all i could find is that they use "Strictly selected chips from original factories", 0 professional reviews showed up on Google which is very weird for a 20 year old company, the model i'm mainly interested in is this one: TLD316G2133HC11ADC01 Would be good to have a decent explanation about their nomenclature system and their main differences aswelll, i have spotted five potentially good series, they are the Team Zeus, Team Xtreem, Team Dark, Team Vulcan and Team Elite, there are more tho, full list here = http://www.teamgroup.com.tw/filterable_product/filterable_catalog/data/en/9/0/439322.html Help will be very much appreciated, depoiments of who already had or is having an experience with the brand products and RMA are very important too, if products are good, bad, working properly, etc..... Besides everyone could benefit from this "discovery" since black friday is right on the corner, if their product prove to be good, reliable and cheap i can't see a reason for not buying it. So, what you guys think of this brand? Thanks in advance
