INTRODUCTION

 

 

 

 

    Although for the past year many people believed that memory prices would increase this has not been the case and so today people can actually purchase a 12GB DDR3 Triple-Channel kit without spending most of their monthly payment. Of course 12GB is not something a casual user would ever choose to purchase but serious gamers and professionals can certainly use the extra memory. GSkill needs no introductions since they have been on the forefront of this particular segment of the market for almost two decades and today we have their latest and fastest SNIPER CL7 12GB memory kit.

    The SNIPER memory modules were specifically designed for gamers and modders who require good looking components with great performance and low height to avoid any clearance issues with the rest of the hardware inside the system. Of course these are not the fastest memory modules GSkill manufactures but as you will also see later on you can overclock them with extreme ease up to a certain point by just loosening their latency. However since i always like to show numbers and not speculate let's move ahead with the rest of the review and see what GSkill brought to the table with their latest SNIPER memory modules.
