HyperX recently updated their Fury lineup to include both 3600MHz and 3733MHz frequencies. HyperX gaming accessories have consistently impressed us with their innovative designs and unrivaled price-to-quality ratio, so when it came time to build our gaming PC, HyperX Fury DDR4 memory was the obvious choice. Fury memory is a low profile, cost-effective ram that is practically guaranteed to work right away in almost any system. Simplicity, performance, and value are 3 qualities you hardly ever find together in PC hardware, but HyperX Fury memory checks every box.
Just Plug And Start Playing
PC build anxiety, for me, is less about hooking everything up correctly and more about configuring everything correctly. I can run cables around my mobo like nobody's business, but as soon as I have to open up the bios I freeze up.
Luckily, Fury memory requires no set up whatsoever. Fury supports both Intel XMP and AMD Ryzen, so no matter which system you use, Fury memory will work. I was able to slot my Fury memory alongside a kit from a different brand (same speed, same voltage) and my computer recognized the Fury memory immediately without the need to configure anything.
For this review, we're using a 16gb kit (2x8gb) at 3200MHz and 1.35v. The RAM comes in a basic clamshell packaging with the specs clearly labeled on the box and on each stick. The heat spreader is super low-profile and should be able to fit in any setup no matter how compact. There's nothing particularly flashy about the style of the non-RGB Fury RAM, but for most setups, I should think people will want a memory stick that just blends in, so I have no complaints at all about the design. However, Fury memory only comes in black. Amazon lists the Fury in white but it's currently unavailable and HyperX's website only lists black. If you have an all-white build like me, the black sticks will stand out a little more (but not much).
Options For Everyone
Whether you're building from scratch or just need a quick upgrade to keep up with more demanding games, HyperX Fury memory is a great option. HyperX offers a variety of speeds starting at 2400MHz all the way up to 3733MHz for higher-end builds. Every kit combination you could need is available as well, from a single stick of 4gb all the way up to a 128gb kit (4x32gb). Easy compatibility and tons of options at an affordable price, Fury is sort of the RAM for everyone.
For a not-insignificant jump in price, HyperX also offers an RGB option for Fury. You can only get up to 64gb (4x16gb) in RGB, which is plenty for practically everyone, even the most demanding games only recommend 16gb. My build is begging for as much RGB as I can fit into it, so the Fury RGB memory will be an easy upgrade for me.
Fury memory is reliable, consistent, and backed by a lifetime warranty. For a gaming PC that may do some light productivity like photo or video editing, HyperX Fury memory covers all the bases.
