CONCLUSION
As with any limited edition product (at least the ones really meant as that) the FURY Renegade 48GB 8000MHz CL36 dual-channel kit by Kingston is the sole such model announced by Kingston and even though I do hope they expand on that line I really have no complaints even if that doesn’t end up happening. Performance is great and clearly puts this kit at the top of my charts, 48GB should be more than plenty for most people with dual-slot motherboards (even two such kits for motherboards with 4 slots – 96GB total – should work flawlessly together) and as for looks, well, I really like these heatspreaders (they are however slightly taller compared to their “regular” ones). As for overclocking even though at 1.45V this kit is already pushed it was very easy to hit 8400MHz by upping voltage to 1.49V so no problems there either (even at 1.53V I was unable to climb to 8600MHz however). My sole concern is of course current motherboard compatibility since 8GHz is not a number supported by all, especially AMD ones (it’s also not EXPO certified). So, prior to making the move be sure to check your motherboard manufacture QVL (qualified vendor lists), just to be on the safe side.
The FURY Renegade RGB Limited Edition 48GB DDR5 8000MHz CL36 Dual-Channel Kit by Kingston was announced just 9 days ago and well, it’s still not available meaning I can’t comment on price (will update this once it is). Price aside however there’s no doubt that this is a very unique and fast kit so if you’re looking to improve your system performance (either due to size or speed) and it is compatible with this kit I strongly suggest getting one, especially since it gets the Platinum Award.
