CONCLUSION

   Even though the infrared sync technology HyperX used with their Predator DDR4 RGB line was obviously not meant for X299 mainboards (due to the longer than 20mm range between the left and right RAM slots) thus all 4 modules can’t sync the desired RGB effect it’s clear both from our charts and our pictures that the 32GB 3200MHZ CL16 we tested today is not only very fast and can overclock extremely well (all the way up to 3800MHZ CL18) but it also looks extremely nice. On top of all the above HyperX made their Predator RGB DDR4 kits compatible with all the leading mainboard RGB sync technologies like ASUS AURA Sync, GIGABYTE RGB Fusion, MSI Mystic Light Sync and ASRock RGB Sync so that too may come in handy to some people. Sure, we would had liked to see more kits like the original non-RGB Predator line of DDR4 kits but the available ones (2933MHz-3000MHZ CL15, 3200MHZ CL16, 3600MHZ CL17, 4000MHZ CL19) should easily cover the majority out there.

   Currently the Predator DDR4 RGB 32GB 3200MHZ CL16 Quad-Channel Kit by HyperX (HX432C16PB3AK4/32) retails for USD238.99 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and for 235Euros inside the EU (Amazon.co.uk) a price tag which puts it in around the same ball park as many other similar kits. At the end of the day the Predator DDR4 RGB 32GB 3200MHZ CL16 Quad Channel kit by HyperX may not be the fastest one out there both in frequency and CAS latency but it does very well in our charts, looks great while doing it and is covered by a lifetime warranty so these are more than just enough for to give it our Golden Award.
