A couple of weeks ago we had the premiere of the Intel X99 platform, which uses the new generation of DDR4 memory. Crucial was so kind to provide us a review sample of their 32GB DDR4 memory kit which was actually the first available desktop DDR4 memory on the market. We could see it listed in a couple of online stores before we could even find any motherboard supporting this new memory. What is more, we still cannot find any other DDR4 memory at a lower price.

Crucial is well known for their high quality memory and wide compatibility. Our test kit can be found on the compatibility list of the MSI X99S SLI Plus which is the motherboard that we will use for today's review.
