Description

Description

The G.Skill Aegis, named after the ancient Greek mythology, "Aegis" the shield of Zeus, is aimed at users who demand high performance and stability from their computer.


DDR4

DDR4 is the fourth generation of RAM technology for computers. It replaces DDR3 and offers increased speeds and capacity.

It offers operating speeds from 2133MT/s to 4800MT/s, latency (CAS Latency) from CL 9 to CL 22, while its capacity has increased up to 32GB per memory unit.

For speed (MT/s) and capacity (GB), the larger size we choose, the better performance we will have in our system, while for latency (CL), we want the smallest size for the speed (MT/s) we have chosen.

The above characteristics should be compatible with the specifications of our motherboard.

The Aegis provides speed at 3000MT/s, with CL16 and 8GB per memory unit.

Compatibility

DDR4 technology is compatible with specific motherboards and processors. Indicatively, DDR4 is compatible with Intel Skylake, Kaby Lake, Coffee Lake series processors and the latest Intel processors, as well as AMD Ryzen and Threadripper series processors.

However, for compatibility with your motherboard, you need to ensure that your motherboard supports DDR4 technology from the manufacturer. Compatibility depends on the processor platform and the type of motherboard you are using.

XMP & EXPO

XMP & EXPO is a technology that allows us to increase the frequency and performance of our computer's memory without the need for manual adjustments. (XMP/EXPO) is easily activated from the BIOS, is available on certain RAM memories, and is supported by certain motherboards.

The G.Skill Aegis 16GB DDR4 RAM has (XMP 2.0) profile with performances:

  • Speed (XMP 2.0): 3000 MT/s
  • CAS Latency (XMP 2.0): 16-18-18-38
  • Voltage (XMP 2.0): 1.35V


Cooling & Design

The aluminum material along with the high-quality construction helps to keep the memory and the entire computer at a fairly low temperature and stability even in the most demanding operations.

I have been using it for about 2 months now.
I bought them (2) for my little brother's PC.
In my personal opinion, for its price, its features, and its durability, it is very good if you want it for a low-budget system (not to say that it's not suitable for higher-grade PCs or mid-range systems). The only downside for me is that it doesn't cool well. However, in the end, they turned out to be very good, performing at the speeds they claim and everything is smooth. They are the cheapest I found with these specs. The only thing I want to "warn" you about is that if you get them, don't be alarmed if you see them running at 2133 at first, it's not a problem, you just need to adjust them from the BIOS. I have them at 3066.
Lastly, I wish you all happy shopping ;)

Update: When I bought them, they were 75 euros EACH!!
So I spent around 150-160 euros (+ shipping & handling).
Now that they cost 46 and 47 euros, I believe there's no need to question or search further to find something better than this, because simply there is nothing better at this price. In fact, I have given my brother the RAM that I had in my own computer, I bought new ones (2 of the same as mentioned before), and I believe that with 4 DIMMs of 8GB each and speeds of 3000+ (I managed to reach 3200), I will significantly improve as a workstation.

Pc Specs:
CPU - i7-8700K @ 5.1Ghz
Liquid Cooling - Cooler Master Master Liquid ML240L RGB
Mobo - Z370 Aorus Gaming 7
RAM - We already talked about it
GPU - RTX 2070 (GV-N2070GAMING-8GC) (Until 2 months ago, I had the MSI RX 580)
PSU - Argus InterTech 750 Watt 80 plus Gold
Dominator - Corsair Platinum Airflow RGB
M.2 - Adata XPG SX8200 Pro 256GB (Windows 10 + some frequent management & demanding programs)
SSD - Intenso High 960GB (Games)
HDD - (x2) Seagate Barracuda 2TB (Files like: Images and videos from camera & phone, songs, rarely used programs, movies, and many more)
I won't mention anything about peripherals.
I can confidently say that I am thrilled, as the computer is now worth as much as my car.
I started this build a little before the summer of 2018, and now I can finally say that it is complete.

A few more words about the numbers:

Project Cars 2:
(Full HD) Ultra everything Avg FPS ~ 150-155
(4K) Ultra everything Avg FPS ~ 48 to 60, average 54

Forza Horizon 4:
(Full HD) Ultra ~ 88-105
(4K) Ultra ~ 47-56

Shadow Of The Tomb Raider:
(Full HD) ultra ~ 99-124
(4K) ultra ~ 35 to 43

Of course, PUBG:
FHD ultra ~ I've seen 118, I've seen 155, it varies quite a bit
4K Ultra ~ 49-58

Far Cry 5:
FHD ultra ~ 110-134
4K ultra ~ Average 54

Battlefield 1:
FHD ultra ~ 143-167
4K ultra ~ 58-69 (I've seen 45, I've seen 72)

Finally, of course, my favorite game (It was the devil that got me into the RTX series)

Battlefield 5!
FULL HD Ultra (DXR OFF) ~ 121-147
FULL HD ultra (DXR ON_LOW) ~ 80-95
FHD ultra (DXR ON_Ultra) ~ 50-65 in some areas, 70 to 80 in others, it varies a lot

4K with Dxr on low and everything else on high, you can play.
4K with DXR on ULTRA, and everything else on Ultra, I won't even think about it.

User Benchmark:
Gaming: 137%
Desktop: 151%
Workstation: 126%

I hope the two additional RAM sticks will give me an extra 10%.

Since the RAM was installed, I've only experienced problems, primarily BSODs due to stopcode: memory_management or stopcode: memory_corrupt, or other reasons that were found to be related to the RAM after investigation. Of course, there were also issues like constant crashes of programs such as Discord, and even League of Legends crashed, throwing me to the reconnect page with the message: missing file. Repairing game... eta: 5 mins at least every 2 days, or even losing files from the cache. The RAM was not tampered with at all; it was installed with the timings specified in the manual without any overclocking, within less than 2 months of purchase. I even tried changing the SSD because I had it for a while and read that they don't have a long lifespan, and I had a problem with a crashed disk in the past, but nothing changed. Also, after changing the disk, I continue to have problems, such as the PC not updating.

GeForce Experience: I updated the nVidia drivers from GeForce Experience, they downloaded normally, but during installation, it showed some files probably missing or corrupted and a retry button.

Windows Updates: On the Windows Update page, it showed your device missing important security or quality fixes (in red), and there was 1 update which, like the nVidia one, downloaded normally, but during installation, it said Windows can't find important update files (files missing or corrupted) please retry later and a retry button.

Performance: As for the 16GB RAM I bought, you can feel the difference from 8GB (I mainly got them for an upgrade). The PC had much better performance and more stable FPS in games, but if you opened programs over 8GB, BSOD occurred obviously. Even though it couldn't run over 8GB, it had better performance because probably the system had more room to work. For me, all this wasn't worth it for a little more stability.

(This and all the above was written an hour after changing the old RAM and reinstalling the old 8GB back.)

Update 10/11/2024 22:56 (Today a few hours later): I applied for a return at the store for inspection and replacement or refund in case they are indeed faulty, so I removed the 16GB sticks and put back the old 8GB to keep the computer functioning. Four hours later, I have no problems with games or bluescreens like before, but I have a little less stability in games and lower limits obviously (the PC works like it used to).

Update 12/11/2024 01:34: The PC currently has an uptime of 30 hours and 54 minutes (to test if the RAM was the issue), and so far, not a single problem in games or program crashes, or even the PC itself (BSOD or sudden restart out of nowhere).

*And so many hours later, the Windows update showed me normally 3 updates, one of which was graphics, which were applied immediately, as well as the drivers update from GeForce Experience. After the restart, the PC is fine, and the "your device missing important security or quality fixes" message is gone from the Windows Update page, so it seems the RAM was indeed the issue. They are currently in transit to the store because I still want an upgrade in RAM for now... STAY AWAY FROM AEGIS.

Update 17/11/2024 01:34: I sent a return request to Skrootz for a defective product and they sent me a code to send it back for inspection and replacement. The store never contacted me, but fortunately, Skrootz is great at cutting out the middlemen and simply sent me another one. So I’m staying AWAY FROM AEGIS and I’m keeping AWAY FROM PRIVESHOP. The memories are actually good, even though they needed a bit of work, and the final rating since Skrootz has saved me before is:
PriveShop: ★ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
G.Skill Aegis: ★ ★ ★ ★ ☆

    The worst RAM I have ever bought. 2 years of use and nothing but permanent problems. Random blue screens. Programs and games crashing. Going from bad to worse. They couldn't handle more than 8GB of usage without freezing everything. Even running at base clock speeds of 2133 instead of the rated "3000" MHz, the same problems persisted. Tested on 2 different motherboards and CPUs. No change. Switched to Crucial Ballistix 3200 and since then, no problems. STAY AWAY. Get anything else except Aegis

    I had 2 at the beginning of 2021 and then I bought another 2 after 7 months. Now I have all 4 on B550 with XMP profile and overclock at 3200 MHz and they have NEVER given me any problems. I imagine they will generate higher temperatures than other RAMs since they don't have a heatsink, just a sticker for aesthetics. They are very good, especially now that you can buy them for 30 euros.

    The Aegis have great value for money, the "leftover" cooler is unnecessary for most users.
    Combined with a 2x4gb Ballistix Sport kit and played immediately without errors.

    I have had these specific memories for 3 years now, I have played quite a bit with this kit, it is on a Ryzen 3600 (bronze sample) and ab350m gaming 3 motherboard. My kit is at least SpecTek (a division of Micron) resulting in it being Micron B-die according to Thaiphoon Burner.
    I tried to overclock and successfully reached the memory at 3733 (18-22-14-30) CR1 (more detailed in the photo from ZenTimings) I couldn't lower the timings any further than this and I also had maxed out the IF of the Ryzen 3600. With TestMem5, no errors are displayed (at least in my kit). In the future, I may try to add another 2x8 kit to run them in dual rank and see what results I will have.

    We used them in a Budget Gaming PC that you can see here: https://youtu.be/x0tNsZpWHdY
    They don't perform well with either Ryzen 1st generation or older Intel (at least on budget chipsets) that we tested, and they are not on the QVL of almost any motherboard model!!! G.Skill itself recommends them only for motherboards with expensive chipsets, while they are one of the most budget and ugliest RAMs out there... as if anyone would get a good motherboard to put these stickered RAMs on!!! Finally, we managed to make them work on an MSI H510 with an I3 10105F, but of course they run at 2666 due to the motherboard.

    I have them for about 8-9 months...
    For 3-4 months everything was fine... normally timed, no overclocking or anything...
    From there on, the fairytale started to fall apart...
    I started experiencing crashes on my computer...
    My windows already gave me error messages on the memory,
    I already had a motherboard failure (asrock x570 pro4)...
    Right now I'm using my old memory (kingston 2666MHz) and I can say that I don't see any difference...
    As another commenter described them... they are rotten!!
    Never again this brand!

    This review is about modules: 1, total capacity: 8 GB

    UPD: With a BIOS flash to the latest version F61C, they work perfectly and take XMP at 3000 MHz (but the sticker remains detached). So, four stars, all good.

    On Gigabyte b450 S2H, they ran flawlessly with Ryzen 3200g/3400g (tested on three identical machines). Upgrading the processor on one of the machines to Ryzen 3600 caused the BIOS to stop posting unless I completely removed XMP. Note: this specific memory is not listed in the QLV compatibility with any of the two families of processors mentioned above, regardless of whether it worked without problems at the beginning.

    In the end, the review is more of a rant than a substantive problem with the memory. However, I noticed that the sticker on them came off after ~6 months of use, so the warranty is lost.

    This review is about modules: 1, total capacity: 8 GB

    It's a very good memory, but it necessarily needs another identical one for the pair.
    It claims to work exceptionally well with Intel, but I didn't see any difference between AMD CPU and Intel CPU.
    It's fairly easy to install and the XMP profile is activated through the BIOS, and the system doesn't activate it automatically (at least for me).
    The communication between this RAM and the M2 I have is done at a relatively high speed compared to another memory, and I can't understand why, even though both are synchronized at 2133MHz (for synchronization safety reasons).
    Would I recommend it?
    Definitely yes, but I would recommend getting a pair, as having two separate ones can cause problems, as it did for me, where after 3 months I started experiencing endless bluescreens, until I had to remove the other RAM.

    A very good RAM memory card. I haven't encountered any problems so far. Also, if you already have a different RAM memory card and want to put this one in your computer as an upgrade, I would recommend carefully comparing the characteristics of the two cards to see if they match, otherwise you will be wasting your money.

Description & Specifications

The G.Skill Aegis, named after the ancient Greek mythology, "Aegis" the shield of Zeus, is aimed at users who demand high performance and stability from their computer.


DDR4

DDR4 is the fourth generation of RAM technology for computers. It replaces DDR3 and offers increased speeds and capacity.

It offers operating speeds from 2133MT/s to 4800MT/s, latency (CAS Latency) from CL 9 to CL 22, while its capacity has increased up to 32GB per memory unit.

For speed (MT/s) and capacity (GB), the larger size we choose, the better performance we will have in our system, while for latency (CL), we want the smallest size for the speed (MT/s) we have chosen.

The above characteristics should be compatible with the specifications of our motherboard.

The Aegis provides speed at 3000MT/s, with CL16 and 8GB per memory unit.

Compatibility

DDR4 technology is compatible with specific motherboards and processors. Indicatively, DDR4 is compatible with Intel Skylake, Kaby Lake, Coffee Lake series processors and the latest Intel processors, as well as AMD Ryzen and Threadripper series processors.

However, for compatibility with your motherboard, you need to ensure that your motherboard supports DDR4 technology from the manufacturer. Compatibility depends on the processor platform and the type of motherboard you are using.

XMP & EXPO

XMP & EXPO is a technology that allows us to increase the frequency and performance of our computer's memory without the need for manual adjustments. (XMP/EXPO) is easily activated from the BIOS, is available on certain RAM memories, and is supported by certain motherboards.

The G.Skill Aegis 16GB DDR4 RAM has (XMP 2.0) profile with performances:

  • Speed (XMP 2.0): 3000 MT/s
  • CAS Latency (XMP 2.0): 16-18-18-38
  • Voltage (XMP 2.0): 1.35V


Cooling & Design

The aluminum material along with the high-quality construction helps to keep the memory and the entire computer at a fairly low temperature and stability even in the most demanding operations.

I have been using it for about 2 months now.
I bought them (2) for my little brother's PC.
In my personal opinion, for its price, its features, and its durability, it is very good if you want it for a low-budget system (not to say that it's not suitable for higher-grade PCs or mid-range systems). The only downside for me is that it doesn't cool well. However, in the end, they turned out to be very good, performing at the speeds they claim and everything is smooth. They are the cheapest I found with these specs. The only thing I want to "warn" you about is that if you get them, don't be alarmed if you see them running at 2133 at first, it's not a problem, you just need to adjust them from the BIOS. I have them at 3066.
Lastly, I wish you all happy shopping ;)

Update: When I bought them, they were 75 euros EACH!!
So I spent around 150-160 euros (+ shipping & handling).
Now that they cost 46 and 47 euros, I believe there's no need to question or search further to find something better than this, because simply there is nothing better at this price. In fact, I have given my brother the RAM that I had in my own computer, I bought new ones (2 of the same as mentioned before), and I believe that with 4 DIMMs of 8GB each and speeds of 3000+ (I managed to reach 3200), I will significantly improve as a workstation.

Pc Specs:
CPU - i7-8700K @ 5.1Ghz
Liquid Cooling - Cooler Master Master Liquid ML240L RGB
Mobo - Z370 Aorus Gaming 7
RAM - We already talked about it
GPU - RTX 2070 (GV-N2070GAMING-8GC) (Until 2 months ago, I had the MSI RX 580)
PSU - Argus InterTech 750 Watt 80 plus Gold
Dominator - Corsair Platinum Airflow RGB
M.2 - Adata XPG SX8200 Pro 256GB (Windows 10 + some frequent management & demanding programs)
SSD - Intenso High 960GB (Games)
HDD - (x2) Seagate Barracuda 2TB (Files like: Images and videos from camera & phone, songs, rarely used programs, movies, and many more)
I won't mention anything about peripherals.
I can confidently say that I am thrilled, as the computer is now worth as much as my car.
I started this build a little before the summer of 2018, and now I can finally say that it is complete.

A few more words about the numbers:

Project Cars 2:
(Full HD) Ultra everything Avg FPS ~ 150-155
(4K) Ultra everything Avg FPS ~ 48 to 60, average 54

Forza Horizon 4:
(Full HD) Ultra ~ 88-105
(4K) Ultra ~ 47-56

Shadow Of The Tomb Raider:
(Full HD) ultra ~ 99-124
(4K) ultra ~ 35 to 43

Of course, PUBG:
FHD ultra ~ I've seen 118, I've seen 155, it varies quite a bit
4K Ultra ~ 49-58

Far Cry 5:
FHD ultra ~ 110-134
4K ultra ~ Average 54

Battlefield 1:
FHD ultra ~ 143-167
4K ultra ~ 58-69 (I've seen 45, I've seen 72)

Finally, of course, my favorite game (It was the devil that got me into the RTX series)

Battlefield 5!
FULL HD Ultra (DXR OFF) ~ 121-147
FULL HD ultra (DXR ON_LOW) ~ 80-95
FHD ultra (DXR ON_Ultra) ~ 50-65 in some areas, 70 to 80 in others, it varies a lot

4K with Dxr on low and everything else on high, you can play.
4K with DXR on ULTRA, and everything else on Ultra, I won't even think about it.

User Benchmark:
Gaming: 137%
Desktop: 151%
Workstation: 126%

I hope the two additional RAM sticks will give me an extra 10%.

Since the RAM was installed, I've only experienced problems, primarily BSODs due to stopcode: memory_management or stopcode: memory_corrupt, or other reasons that were found to be related to the RAM after investigation. Of course, there were also issues like constant crashes of programs such as Discord, and even League of Legends crashed, throwing me to the reconnect page with the message: missing file. Repairing game... eta: 5 mins at least every 2 days, or even losing files from the cache. The RAM was not tampered with at all; it was installed with the timings specified in the manual without any overclocking, within less than 2 months of purchase. I even tried changing the SSD because I had it for a while and read that they don't have a long lifespan, and I had a problem with a crashed disk in the past, but nothing changed. Also, after changing the disk, I continue to have problems, such as the PC not updating.

GeForce Experience: I updated the nVidia drivers from GeForce Experience, they downloaded normally, but during installation, it showed some files probably missing or corrupted and a retry button.

Windows Updates: On the Windows Update page, it showed your device missing important security or quality fixes (in red), and there was 1 update which, like the nVidia one, downloaded normally, but during installation, it said Windows can't find important update files (files missing or corrupted) please retry later and a retry button.

Performance: As for the 16GB RAM I bought, you can feel the difference from 8GB (I mainly got them for an upgrade). The PC had much better performance and more stable FPS in games, but if you opened programs over 8GB, BSOD occurred obviously. Even though it couldn't run over 8GB, it had better performance because probably the system had more room to work. For me, all this wasn't worth it for a little more stability.

(This and all the above was written an hour after changing the old RAM and reinstalling the old 8GB back.)

Update 10/11/2024 22:56 (Today a few hours later): I applied for a return at the store for inspection and replacement or refund in case they are indeed faulty, so I removed the 16GB sticks and put back the old 8GB to keep the computer functioning. Four hours later, I have no problems with games or bluescreens like before, but I have a little less stability in games and lower limits obviously (the PC works like it used to).

Update 12/11/2024 01:34: The PC currently has an uptime of 30 hours and 54 minutes (to test if the RAM was the issue), and so far, not a single problem in games or program crashes, or even the PC itself (BSOD or sudden restart out of nowhere).

*And so many hours later, the Windows update showed me normally 3 updates, one of which was graphics, which were applied immediately, as well as the drivers update from GeForce Experience. After the restart, the PC is fine, and the "your device missing important security or quality fixes" message is gone from the Windows Update page, so it seems the RAM was indeed the issue. They are currently in transit to the store because I still want an upgrade in RAM for now... STAY AWAY FROM AEGIS.

Update 17/11/2024 01:34: I sent a return request to Skrootz for a defective product and they sent me a code to send it back for inspection and replacement. The store never contacted me, but fortunately, Skrootz is great at cutting out the middlemen and simply sent me another one. So I’m staying AWAY FROM AEGIS and I’m keeping AWAY FROM PRIVESHOP. The memories are actually good, even though they needed a bit of work, and the final rating since Skrootz has saved me before is:
PriveShop: ★ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
G.Skill Aegis: ★ ★ ★ ★ ☆
Skrootz: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

    The worst RAM I have ever bought. 2 years of use and nothing but permanent problems. Random blue screens. Programs and games crashing. Going from bad to worse. They couldn't handle more than 8GB of usage without freezing everything. Even running at base clock speeds of 2133 instead of the rated "3000" MHz, the same problems persisted. Tested on 2 different motherboards and CPUs. No change. Switched to Crucial Ballistix 3200 and since then, no problems. STAY AWAY. Get anything else except Aegis

    I had 2 at the beginning of 2021 and then I bought another 2 after 7 months. Now I have all 4 on B550 with XMP profile and overclock at 3200 MHz and they have NEVER given me any problems. I imagine they will generate higher temperatures than other RAMs since they don't have a heatsink, just a sticker for aesthetics. They are very good, especially now that you can buy them for 30 euros.

    Nothing less than what I expected.
    The Aegis have great value for money, the "leftover" cooler is unnecessary for most users.
    Combined with a 2x4gb Ballistix Sport kit and played immediately without errors.

    I have had these specific memories for 3 years now, I have played quite a bit with this kit, it is on a Ryzen 3600 (bronze sample) and ab350m gaming 3 motherboard. My kit is at least SpecTek (a division of Micron) resulting in it being Micron B-die according to Thaiphoon Burner.
    I tried to overclock and successfully reached the memory at 3733 (18-22-14-30) CR1 (more detailed in the photo from ZenTimings) I couldn't lower the timings any further than this and I also had maxed out the IF of the Ryzen 3600. With TestMem5, no errors are displayed (at least in my kit). In the future, I may try to add another 2x8 kit to run them in dual rank and see what results I will have.

    We used them in a Budget Gaming PC that you can see here: https://youtu.be/x0tNsZpWHdY
    They don't perform well with either Ryzen 1st generation or older Intel (at least on budget chipsets) that we tested, and they are not on the QVL of almost any motherboard model!!! G.Skill itself recommends them only for motherboards with expensive chipsets, while they are one of the most budget and ugliest RAMs out there... as if anyone would get a good motherboard to put these stickered RAMs on!!! Finally, we managed to make them work on an MSI H510 with an I3 10105F, but of course they run at 2666 due to the motherboard.

    I have them for about 8-9 months...
    For 3-4 months everything was fine... normally timed, no overclocking or anything...
    From there on, the fairytale started to fall apart...
    I started experiencing crashes on my computer...
    My windows already gave me error messages on the memory,
    I already had a motherboard failure (asrock x570 pro4)...
    Right now I'm using my old memory (kingston 2666MHz) and I can say that I don't see any difference...
    As another commenter described them... they are rotten!!
    Never again this brand!

    This review is about modules: 1, total capacity: 8 GB

    UPD: With a BIOS flash to the latest version F61C, they work perfectly and take XMP at 3000 MHz (but the sticker remains detached). So, four stars, all good.

    On Gigabyte b450 S2H, they ran flawlessly with Ryzen 3200g/3400g (tested on three identical machines). Upgrading the processor on one of the machines to Ryzen 3600 caused the BIOS to stop posting unless I completely removed XMP. Note: this specific memory is not listed in the QLV compatibility with any of the two families of processors mentioned above, regardless of whether it worked without problems at the beginning.

    In the end, the review is more of a rant than a substantive problem with the memory. However, I noticed that the sticker on them came off after ~6 months of use, so the warranty is lost.

    This review is about modules: 1, total capacity: 8 GB

    It's a very good memory, but it necessarily needs another identical one for the pair.
    It claims to work exceptionally well with Intel, but I didn't see any difference between AMD CPU and Intel CPU.
    It's fairly easy to install and the XMP profile is activated through the BIOS, and the system doesn't activate it automatically (at least for me).
    The communication between this RAM and the M2 I have is done at a relatively high speed compared to another memory, and I can't understand why, even though both are synchronized at 2133MHz (for synchronization safety reasons).
    Would I recommend it?
    Definitely yes, but I would recommend getting a pair, as having two separate ones can cause problems, as it did for me, where after 3 months I started experiencing endless bluescreens, until I had to remove the other RAM.

    A very good RAM memory card. I haven't encountered any problems so far. Also, if you already have a different RAM memory card and want to put this one in your computer as an upgrade, I would recommend carefully comparing the characteristics of the two cards to see if they match, otherwise you will be wasting your money.
