CONCLUSION

   Thanks to the lower voltage requirements of the XPOWER Turbine DDR4 3200MHZ CL16 modules we managed to “squeeze” slightly tighter timings compared to some other kits but unfortunately probably because Silicon Power doesn’t sell these kits in pairs we were unable to surpass 3600MHZ even at 1.4V (could be possible if we went even higher but we’ve placed 1.4V as the max for our tests). That being said even 400MHZ over the advertised frequency is not bad result especially at these timings (also take into account that you should be able to achieve even better timings in a dual-channel system). The lack of RGB lighting although not as important as everything else may indeed drive potential buyers away and towards other solutions but keep in mind that Silicon Power just released their Turbine RGB DDR4 line which we also got so stay tuned for that review.

   At the time of this review the XPOWER Turbine DDR4 3200MHZ CL16 dual-channel (2x8GB) kit by Silicon Power retails for USD72.99 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and for 124.99Euros inside the EU (Amazon.de) which means that the quad-kit we tested today will set you back a total of USD145.98/249.98Euros a price tag which is very balanced, at least on the other side of the Atlantic. With that out of the way even though the XPOWER Turbine DDR4 32GB 3200MHZ CL16 Quad-Channel kit is far from being the fastest in the market today and it also lacks RGB lighting thanks to its overall performance, low voltage requirements and blue anodized aluminum heatspreaders (which also happen to be the shortest ones we’ve seen on a high-performance DDR4 kit to date) it certainly deserves your attention.
