Ballistix Sport LT Red 32GB 2666MHz DDR4 Memory Kit Review

Memory by stefan @ 2017-03-28

The Sport LT 2666 32GB DDR4 kit from Ballistix can be easily overclocked in order to squeeze even more performance out of the system. With this particular model, while working a bit with the timings and voltage, we were able to reach even 3200MHz, which is a big step from their stock frequency. Surprisingly, even with the voltage at 1.35V (they are intended to run at 1.2V at the recommended speed of 2666Mhz) and a half an hour of Memtest, the modules barely became warm so the heatspreaders are doing a really great job cooling the ICs.

Packaging, A Closer Look

In this article we will concentrate our attention upon another recently-launched RAM kit from Ballistix and to be more exact the Sport LT. The Sport LT kits are meant to be used in regular desktops and gaming rigs, come with rated speeds of 2400+ MHz, the modules are found in both 4 and 8GB densities and feature different color heatspreaders. Our review sample sported the BLS2K16G4D240FSE code name and was comprised of two 16GB sticks; the packaging style is familiar to us since the previous kits from the same company had the same styling:

The sticker placed nearby does show the kit memory quantity, the rated speed, operating voltage but also its code name and serial numbers:

The back side of the packaging does reveal some more details regarding the different Ballistix memory series:

The middle plastic layer does also show some installation instructions:

After removing the top packaging layer, we will get to see that the modules are held secure inside a custom transparent plastic mold:

Thanks to the different color versions, we can go for the variant that fits our setup best:

The modules do feature a black PCB, while the heatspreaders have a low height, so maximum compatibility is ensured with larger CPU coolers:
