Benchmarks I

We're using our standard Core i7-8700K platform for testing, overclocked to an all-core 4.8GHz to better reflect an enthusiast's system. As a comparison, and to see any differences from running faster memory, we've also benchmarked a 16GB kit (2x8GB) of G.Skill's Flare X DDR4-3,200 memory running at excellent 14-14-14-34-2T timings. Secondly, seeing if there is benefit of going faster than the default, we have also included a 16GB (2x8GB) of Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4-2,667 memory equipped with standard 16-16-16-38-2T timings.

As you would expect, bandwidth and latency are pretty good. Even though the speed is higher than the comparison G.Skill, latency is worse because the timings are so much looser.
