Patriot Memory Viper Steel DDR4 2x8GB PVS416G373C7K
 | Outdated Product High-performance dual-channel DDR4 memory module capable of stable operation at an effective clock speed of 3733 MHz. The kit includes two single-sided modules with a volume of 8 GB each (16 GB in total). It is positioned as an upper mid-range product aimed at demanding gamers and overclocking enthusiasts who are able to achieve increased performance by overclocking system components. The set of RAM modules Patriot Memory Viper Steel DDR4 2x8Gb PVS416G373C7K is designed for use in top gaming PCs, as well as systems for testing the overclocking potential of CPUs and video cards. With a claimed high clock speed of 3733MHz, it exhibits high throughput up to 29.8Gbps, making it a good choice for benchmarking platforms. During the initial installation, the modules start in the "default" mode (D...DR4-2133 with CL15-15-15-35 timings at 1.2 V). To automatically set the claimed speed mode (DDR4-3733 with CL17-21-21-41 at 1.35V), you need a motherboard that supports XMP 2.0 technology. The kit has been thoroughly tested, has a high degree of compatibility and is able to work in configurations based on Intel Core CPUs (from 6th to 12th generation), as well as AMD Ryzen CPUs (Zen/Zen2/Zen3). |

Model overview based on user reviews
The Patriot Memory Viper Steel DDR4 2x8Gb RAM offers a low price point for its advertised high frequencies, making it an attractive option for budget-conscious users. However, many users report that the XMP profiles often do not work as advertised, requiring manual adjustments in the BIOS to achieve stable performance. The memory modules are available with different chip types, such as Hynix and Samsung b-die, which can affect performance and stability. While some users successfully achieve the advertised speeds with manual tweaking, others experience stability issues and crashes, particularly when attempting to reach higher frequencies. The RAM's design is appreciated for its stylish look without flashy lights, but the heatsinks are noted to be more decorative than functional. Overall, this RAM is suitable for those who are comfortable with hardware adjustments and are willing to experiment to achieve optimal performance.

The declared operation is at 3733 MHz (17-21-21-41, 1.35 V). The kit did not pick up this XMP profile. I set all the parameters in the BIOS manually, raised the voltages up to 1.45 V (Hynix chips, didn't want to risk further) - it didn't help. It only worked stably at 3333 MHz (17-21-21-41), which roughly corresponded to the characteristics of other memory kits for the same money (November 2019). It's unclear: either the manufacturer is intentionally misleading by providing inaccurate information on the box, or I got a defective unit (apparently, the memory wasn't tested at the factory). I returned the item to the store and got my money back. Instead, I bought the G.Skill Trident Z 3600 MHz (16-16-16-36, Samsung b-die chips) - more expensive, but it all worked without any hassle. Processor i9 9900k, motherboard Aorus Z390 Master (compatibility with this board is claimed by the manufacturer). - Low price for the frequency shown on the box. - The set did not run at the frequency and timings stated by the manufacturer (see comment); - The heatsinks serve only a decorative function.  Aleksandr: use Patriot Memory PVS416G373C7K less than month |
I have a plate that wound up at 3000 at 3400 (16-19-19-36) in a single channel, but a plate with the same heatsink but xmp at 3200 wound up at 3800 (18-20-20-40), and this despite the fact that the difference in cost is 100 rubles, now let people go away who shouted to me in their reviewers that the XMP profile does not solve and you can simply overclock it to the level of a more expensive model. By the way, I'm one of those who are ready to dig, so I don't know how you will be with the frequencies. Aesthetic radiator, I managed to get good frequencies The fact that I saved 100 rubles and did not buy 2 dice for 3200 |
Motherboard b450 pro4, processor ryzen 5 3400g. In slots 1 and 3, the xmp profile did not work, but in slots 2 and 4 everything worked (xmp 3000 cl16). I didn't try overclocking because it was assembled for multimedia and browsing needs, but with the possibility of upgrading for gaming. Pay attention to which slots you insert the memory, it's very important, not the first time I've encountered this. Low price. not found. Daniil: use Patriot Memory PVS416G300C6K few months |
