HyperX Beast or HyperX FURY??

[morphius]

Hi, I was searching around online for some RAM and stumbled across the HyperX FURYs which looked promising.
On the page was a mini-table that compared other RAM that HyperX was selling to one another, and (according to the table) the HyperX Beast was the 'best' ones they sell so I checked them out.
They offered the same amount of RAM (with more potential to go faster in terms of MHz), for the same price as the HyperX FURYs, now I'm confused.
They also sold the HyperX Savages as well, which supposidly were the middle child between the HyperX FURYs and the Beasts; strangely enough they were more expensive than the FURYs and the Beasts!!
Could someone please explain to me the difference between these three RAMs please!

it Just depends if your overclocking or not , because if your not overclocking the Beasts is kind of useless .

Price wise a lot may depend on where you are looking, prices can fluctuate alot based on stock on hand and availability The Fury line run off PnP - just plug in and go and have somewhat loose timings, the Savage and the Beast lines are a step up, then they have the Predator line which is the top end.

Should I go for the Beasts then? They're the same price as the FURYs, and better apparently...

Note that the beasts have taller heat spreaders. So if you have a big CPU cooler, they might get in the way. Other than that, the beast is generally superior.

The bBeast can have tighter timings (better performance), the thing to watch with the Fury is being PnP they don't work w/ all chipsets, want 1155 or newer

It's funny you say that; I had bought a new motherboard, CPU, and CPU cooler.
(Changing from socket 1155 to 1150, hence the new CPU and CPU cooler.)
The CPU cooler unfortunately covers up two whole RAM slots because it's stupid massive, HENCE why I'm buying new RAM to compensate for the fact that I'll be limited to the remaining two RAM slots. There are four RAM slots.
It's a mess.

What cooler? Many that overhang the slots have adjustable fans, i.e. the Hyper 212 EVO that you can even put GSkill Trident under with no ill affects

The NH-14s. So yeah haha.
I tried positioning the CPU cooler to aim upwards towards the roof to see if there'd be any spare room, no luck either way.
It's the heatsink that prevents me from using the RAM slots, not the fans on the cooler.

*EDIT*

So I've ended up buying the HyperX Savages instead, the RAM much shorter than the Beasts and the FURYs, and they could fit right underneath the CPU cooler without space issues, win.
