Crucial Ballistix Sport DDR4 2400MHz 32GB Memory Kit Review

Post by Apoptosis »

Crucial recently announced that they have come out with enthusiast-class Ballistic Sport DDR4 modules that offer increased bandwidth over your traditional 'value series' DDR4 memory kits. The kits also look better thanks to the use of a integrated heat spreader and a black PCB instead of traditional green PCB that has been around for decades. Crucial sent over the Ballistix Sport 32GB DDR4 2400MHz desktop memory kit that is sold under part number BLS4K8G4D240FSA. This memory kit runs at 2400MHz with 16-16-16-39 2T timings at 1.20V. Read on to see how this kit performs. We don't want to spoil too much, but let's just say it overclocked beyond 2400MHz and we got CL12 timings with a 1T command rate with the overclock. Could this be the DDR4 memory kit to get this fall?

After nine months it appears this kit failed on the test bench... This was my favorite 32GB DDR4 memory kit too :(

One module appears to be having issues... Sometimes it isn't detected and when it is detected it gives errors on the RST Premium memory tester.

Here is the screen shot without it being detected...

Here are the testing results showing errors when it is detected.
