I have no contact in Corsair and I won't buy their RAM just because there are better kits in similar price with guaranteed tighter timings. I will try to get something for tests as I have only 1 kit on the list but I don't know if it will be 2x8GB 3200 ... and I don't know when.
I just don't like the fact that all their 3200+ kits are 15-17-17 or 16-18-18 ( or CL17/18 ) while G.Skill is offering 15-15-15/16-16-16 at about the same price. At the end you don't know if max will be 3400 or 4000+ as you can find everything under the heatsinks of 16-18-18 kits. I mean Hynix, Samsung, Micron/Spectek or even Nanya.
However thanks for asking. I will try to get something from Corsair for tests.
Re HyperX, Fury is on the same IC as Savage or Predator. You can check my other tests/reviews:

On X99 and Z170 they're overclocking about the same.
There is a chance that new kits can be on Microns but most of the HyperX kits are on Hynix and there you have limited choice as most are MFR and some are AFR with about the same SPD/XMP profiles.
