G.Skill RipjawsX 4GB DDR3-2133mhz Review @ £50 inc vat

V2011 is the first release of 3DStudio Max to fully support the Windows 7 operating system. This is a professional level tool that many people use for work purposes and our test will show any possible differences between board design today.

Autodesk 3ds Max Design 2011 software offers compelling new techniques to help bring designs to life by aggregating data, iterating ideas, and presenting the results.

Streamlined, more intelligent data exchange workflows and innovative new modeling and visualization tools help significantly increase designers’ creativity and productivity, enabling them to better explore, validate, and communicate the stories behind their designs.

Major new features:

  • Slate: A node based material editor.
  • Quicksilver: Hardware renderer with multithreaded rendering engine that utilizes both CPU and GPU.
  • Extended Graphite Modeling Toolset
  • 3ds Max Composite: A HDRI-capable compositor based on Autodesk Toxik.
  • Viewport Canvas toolset for 3D and 2D texture painting directly in the viewport
  • Object Painting: use 3D geometry as ‘brushes’ on other geometry
  • Character Animation Toolkit (CAT): now integrated as part of the base package
  • Autodesk Material Library: Over 1200 new photometrically accurate shaders
  • Additional file format support: includes native support for Sketchup, Inventor
  • FBX file linking
  • Save to Previous Release (2010)

We render a KitGuru custom created scene at 1920×1080 and record the time taken, lower is better.

When we increase the memory bandwidth and efficiency, the time taken to complete the overall render is reduced by several seconds. This seems like a minor amount on such a relatively small rendering process, but over the course of a week, many hours would be potentially saved.

  1. £50? thats a mad price for 2133mhz memory

  2. The red heatspreader is wicked looking. Dont need memory right now, but this is a great deal. is their 8GB kit under £100 then going on this?

  3. Just ordered some, thats a mega deal.

  4. Wow, they must be losing money at that. the USA price is under $80.

  5. Yeah, cant get a much better deal than this. not sure why its so cheap not like they didnt include a decent headspreader.

    4GB is being perseved as the ‘minimum’ now. wonder if all the focus is going on higher density chips.

  6. Excellent. not the usual £50 1333mhz sub standard knock off.

    Dont need memory myself, but ill send this out to my friends in works

  7. Too good to miss, ordered some for a new system. always wanted to try memory faster than 1600mhz. ill probably not notice the difference, but at this price its a bonus.

  8. Well i wasn’t expecting to see £50 of 4GB memory at this speed in 2011. Very very nice indeed. wouldn’t normally consider gskill but at this price, worth a shot.
