A quote from the article:
Now that the Intel X99 chipset has been released along with the Intel Haswell-E processor series we have entered the era of DDR4 memory. There are many DDR4 memory kits on the market and right now you can find 16GB to 64GB kits of DDR4 memory ranging in speeds of 2133MHz to 3333MHz. The sheer number of kits on the market for the platform launch is rather impressive and luckily there are a good number of Intel X99 based motherboards that are ready to support DDR4 memory frequencies well beyond the JEDEC standard clock frequency of 2133MHz. Motherboard maker ASUS has claimed that all of their boards are able to support up to 3200MHz and beyond, even with all eight DIMM slots being populated with modules. At the end of the day all this means that if you want to build an X99 platform you can go a little crazy one the memory and get some overclocking memory straight out of the gate. DDR4 memory is very expensive though, so which kit should you get and at what clock speed and timings? We have DDR4 memory kits from Corsair, Crucial, G.Skill and Kingston with more coming from companies like ADATA and Mushkin. The problem is all the kits are various capacities and clock speeds, so it's hard to do a roundup when prices range from $250 to $600 on the kits. We figured we'd take quick a quick look at the HyperX Predator 16GB 3000MHz DDR4 Memory kit from Kingston Technology Corporation to kick things off.
