Mushkin RAM DDR4

AncientSoul · Feb 16, 2015

Hello, I just saw that now there is a DDR4 Memory and I found this very cheap RAM made by Mushkin which is a " Mushkin Redline 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR4-3000 Memory " at 119$, which seems very cheap especially when the same type of ram cost between 300-400$ ? The voltage of the RAM is at 1.35V Idk if it's good or bad.

It doesn't seem very legit
Is this a good or bad ram ?
And Is it worth having DDR4 or anything higher than 1600Mhz ?
(I know that there are other factors to look at for the quality of a ram but idk what they are... ? )

Thank you for helping me

If it's at that price at newegg do i assume it's legit.More important right now is the question whether it's worth having ddr4,the thing is that your motherboard/socket needs to support it so which one do you have?

I don't have any motherboard yet or anything else because I am building my PC, but I will probably get a X99 motherboard which supports DDR4 to 3000Mhz. What should I do

If you want to build with that is the mushkin a good choice.I use it myself.Looked carefully and this set is 2x4gb which is for what you want not very effcient looking at a quad channel motherboard.The reason why it is so cheap and there are even cheaper ones
With socket 2011-V3 do you really want at least 4x4gb,like this,

Why do you want an X99 motherboard/cpu?

I don't really know, I will probably go for a motherboard that does DDR4 ! It doesnt have to be a X99, Im just a noob at building. So is a 8gb stick better ?

I use Mushkin Redline DDR3 myself, works great.

I was looking at the 4 x 4 GB version of this stuff...seems to be super fast for the price. However, it's not on Asus's QVL for RAM for my X99-A...can anyone comment on the risk?

AncientSoul :

What is it for?
For a X99 motherboard would i go for at least 4x4gb,already explained why.

For ddr4 on a different socket do you need to wait for "Skylake"/socket 1151.From what i read will that come in about the second quarter of the year.

Shouldn't be a risk,they just can't test every set of ram with a motherboard.
