gskill ripjaws vs corsair vengeance

[Danish ali]

I want to know which ram is faster a gskill 2133mhz with 9 11 11 32timing or a corsair vengeance with 1600mhz with 9 9 9 27 timming.

The 2133 sticks, if you wanted to drop them and compare to the Vengeance, you should be able to run the GSkill sticks at 1600/7 vs the slower 1600/9 and on the flip side if the Vengeance could OC to 2133, you would prob be looking at 2133/11 - 1600/9 is basically entry level DRAM. With the Haswell K Models, I normally start with 2133/9 sets - the Trident X line from Gskill is my favorite

Actually if you leave the 2133 to mobo defaults it will run at about 1600/11, I was just clarifying. Also it will depend on the sets, there are high freq sets 2133/2400 that get outperformed by lower freq sets

Actually, the DRAM makers and mobo makers basically gave up on 'standards' years ago because people want more performance and have worked hand in hand to improve things, The JEDEC Standards for DDR3 went up to 1600 sticks, the manufacturers took DRAM up to 1866, then 2133, then 2400 and had sticks at 2666 before JEDEC ever even issued 'standards' for 1866 and 2133, then they just sort of gave up. The DDR4 standards by JEDEC are simply a continuation from where DDR3 left off, and again the manufactures of DRAM and mobos to a degree have bypassed JEDEC, these early sticks 2133 and up follow the published 'standards' but they have ignored the entry of 1866, and we will be seeing the sticks w/ tighter timings once another line of mobos and CPUs come out that utilize DDR4
