Kingston FURY Beast DDR5

Kingston has timed a near perfect release of their super fast DDR5 memory aptly name Kingston FURY Beast DDR5. This is a new technology supported in Intel’s 12th Gen (Alder Lake) CPUs that can more than double the speed of data transfer compared to DDR4.

It’s not all cushions and wildflowers however. Running at such high speeds releases intense amounts of heat, so you need to be mindful of installing an effective cooling solution – unless you want your expensive new chips to fry.

Honestly though, most people doing their everyday computing won’t notice, won’t care. But for tasks involving complex computations, like CAD, 3D rendering, video & photo editing – these are the people who will appreciate every bit of speed they can get.
