    Sadly, that deal is now "out of stock"; confirmed on the website.

      It is on back order for other regions such as USA. Online chat couldn't say if any more stock would arrive for Australia.

      edit - just checked the link and it says 'This item is currently out of stock and it may or may not be restocked.'

      if you have to have that aegis, buy single ram*2 for $6 extra, still cheaper than most of Australian retailer offers

    3200 is well and good but you are still stuck with those loose timings.

      @3000 16 16 16 36
      @3200 16 18 18 38

      you wont notice the difference.

      Unless you have Samsung B-die c14

      14/3200 *1000=8.75
      16/3000 *1000=10.66666
      16/3200 *1000=10

      0.6666 nanoseconds

        Tom's hardware doesn't exactly have the greatest reputation, and the guy saying he wouldn't pay any extra for tighter timings either doesn't own a Ryzen or is simply a dill. I won't argue that this mediocre kit vs the Aegis you linked would be much of a muchness, but I wouldn't take the opinions on that thread you linked as gospel either.

  what the hell, I've never seen the flareX 3200 at anything but CL14 - what is this sorcery?

    There is often variations, even within the same branding and product. Always do your research.

      Oh I'm sure there are, just a little surprised as I've never come across it for this particular model and have been looking for a good price on these for a while

    Most likely Hynix CJR, which is kind of like a budget B-die. It can do pretty much the same CAS latency as B-die, but all the other timings are slightly worse.
    I've heard it works well with Ryzen like B-die does, hence why it has the Flare X branding.

    More info with overclocks here

      There is about $100 difference in pricing

      The issue is that ppl will just see the bigger number 3200mhz and buy them, thinking they get c14 for less

  Thanks. It's back in stock.

  After watching YouTube, it seems RAM can also bottle neck your FPS. Get higher clock speeds!

  Jopgun on 15/02/2019 - 11:27

  What's the difference between FlareX and Ripjaws V? Both have 3200mhz variants, even the timings seem to be identical.

  Only thing I can tell is different heat spreader design.

  For a minute I was very salty about how much I paid for my F4-3200C14D-16GFX 6 months ago until I realised these are just cheap knock offs.
