Kingston FURY Beast 32GB DDR5-5200 Memory Kit Review

Overclocking

Disclaimer: Overclocking is never guaranteed, so that the results may vary depending on certain conditions and various hardware configurations. I am not recommending overclocking if you do not know what you are doing. High voltages may damage hardware, and the warranty will not cover it.

The Fury Beast DDR5-5200 uses Micron IC, so as long as it delivers high performance and stability, then it’s not overclocking as high as other brands IC. We can still overclock it to DDR5-5600, and in most cases, this will be the maximum clock. Memory timings may vary depending on the motherboard and used BIOS. On our Aorus Z690 Master motherboard are still problems with training, so that we couldn’t set tight timings and the best setting seems DDR5-5200 at CL38-38-38 and 1.25V.

The maximum frequency that was also used in the performance comparison is DDR5-5600 at CL44. This was the stable setting while CL40 was still possible but randomly had problems with stability. Considering typical Micron IC behavior, I assume it’s a matter of early, not tuned BIOS.

The Fury Beast DDR5-5200 is fast enough at XMP profiles, and I doubt that anyone will need to overclock it. Of course, we can play with additional settings and probably achieve some performance gain, but all the time spent on adjusting timings and stability testing may not be worth it.
