INTRODUCTION

    AMD may be currently leading the market with their latest 3D CPUs but thanks to the introduction of the CUDIMM standard a while back it's Intel that's leading the market when it comes to memory kit speeds. As of now there are CUDIMM DDR5 kits with speeds going all the way to 9600MT/s (MHz) which are only compatible with high-end Intel Z890 motherboards paired with one of their latest Core Ultra 200S CPUs. Unfortunately, such high frequency CUDIMM DDR5 modules are not quite as compatible as we'd like them to be so at least for me the sweet spot for any Intel Z890 configuration sits between 8000-8400Mt/s. At least that was the case until I got the latest FURY Renegade RGB 48GB 8800MT/s CL42 CUDIMM Dual-Channel Kit by Kingston.

    The FURY Renegade RGB line currently has single (24GB) and dual (2x24GB) channel CUDIMM kits in two available speeds, 8400MT/s with a CAS latency of 40 at 1.45V and 8800MT/s with a CAS latency of 42 at 1.4V.  These CUDIMM kits use 45mm tall heatspreaders (either in black and silver or white and silver - several exterior lines differentiate the shorter 44mm ones used with UDIMM kits) behind which Kingston has placed SK Hynix single die modules (24Gbit density) and a total of 12 ARGB LEDs on top (12 available effects via the FURY CTRL app and also compatible with all the leading RGB motherboard sync technologies like ASUS Aura Sync, GB RGB Fusion 2.0, MSI Mystic Light Sync and ASRock Polychrome). Typically, as with most other FURY RAM lines by Kingston the Renegade RGB CUDIMM kits are covered by a limited lifetime warranty.
