Package and its Contents
FURY Renegade arrived in a retail package, which is a small, flat box. The box is about the same as we could see in previously reviewed Kingston memory kits.
The package contains two memory modules, a Kingston Fury logo sticker, and a user guide. This is enough to install our brand-new RAM. The installation is straightforward, and even less advanced users can handle it without problems.
The tested modules don’t have RGB illumination, but if we wish, then the RGB kits are available in stores. For sure new are heat sinks. I won’t hide that I liked more the DDR4 design, but the new one isn’t bad either. It just doesn’t feel as aggressive as before.
Heat sinks are good enough to keep modules stable during work and also after some overclock. We must remember that the PMIC and modules together generate more heat than the previous DDR series, so they also require good airflow while overclocking. Modules at higher voltages than standard shouldn’t be installed in very small and tight computers. As I already mentioned, the Renegade memory ran at surprisingly low temperatures in our tests, so we don’t have to worry about overheating at the fastest XMP profile.
Below you can see some photos of the test platform. Everything was closed in a typical large ATX case with above-average airflow. Our test results are on the next page of the article.
