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.
Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine RGB uses Hynix IC, which usually runs at DDR4-3600 or DDR4-3800 CL16 when we set a bit higher voltages. In this case, we were able to reach DDR4-3800 CL16-19-19, which is an above-average result for this type of IC. Considering that Hynix IC already performs well at automatic settings, overclocked results should satisfy even more demanding users, especially when this memory will be used on the AMD Ryzen platform.
As far as on AMD, it’s best to keep a lower memory clock, Intel users can be interested in DDR4-4200 or higher settings. In this case, the XPOWER Turbine RGB runs well at CL18-22-22 timings, so quite tight considering it’s a 16GBx2 kit.
In both cases, so DDR4-3800 CL16-19-19 and DDR4-4200 CL18-22-22, I had to use 1.45V, so still not high voltage.
Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine RGB doesn’t require overclocking to achieve good results, but we are always happy to see some overclocking headroom.
