CONCLUSION

    Even though the Hera RGB line also includes an 8400MHz (MT/s) kit (9466MHz for the Hera Special Edition kit unveiled recently) I was sent the 8000Mhz kit and well, I wasn’t disappointed. Stock performance is great and well overclocked (1.5V) the kit easily hit 8400MHz without issue. As a matter of fact, this is the fastest kit in the charts when taking into account its overclocking performance (2^nd fastest without) so you really can’t go wrong with it. Build quality is also excellent and even though this is a rather tall kit (50.1mm) the large heatspreaders are sure to help with temperatures (and at those speeds, cooling efficiency matters). Finally, the RGB lighting may not stand out on its own but thanks to the design of the heatspreaders the Hera kit is certainly one of the best looking ones to ever arrive in the office.

    At the time of this review availability for the Hera RGB line of DDR5 kits by Acer Predator is far from ideal and so I only managed to find the 32GB 8000MHz (MT/s) kit in the UK for £169.99 (Amazon.co.uk), a price tag which is extremely balanced, at least for that region. Availability aside the Hera RGB 32GB DDR5 8000MHz CL36 Dual-Channel Kit is very good at what it does and since it’s also among the 2 fastest kits in the charts the Platinum award is obviously in order.
