Today I have Kingston HyperX Lovo so something at more standard settings of 1600 9-9-9 but low voltage - 1.35V ... and it's green :)
LoVo series has the same well known Genesis heatsinks but painted green what actually looks pretty nice and probably no one will complain that green PCB doesn't fit to the heatsink ;)

Memory comes in standard plastic box and inside we can find two 8GB memory sticks, short warranty/installation info and HyperX logo sticker.

I have little issues with light but I hope that photos are good enough ;)

Also thanks Kingston for this memory kit.

XMP#1 Results

XMP #1 results so how it's performing on "stock" settings.

HyperX LoVo 1600 has only one XMP profile but it's enough for memory at this clock. Timings at XMP settings can be seen on the screenshots.

Maximum clock achieved on this memory clock was 1000MHz ( DDR3-2000 ). I couldn't make it run higher and it simply didn't want to boot at DDR3-2133 regardless of used voltage or timings.
Memory is based on Micron IC and is overclocking similar to other Microns however most other kits that I was testing could reach 2133.
It's still not that bad as performance of this memory is good and results at 2000 are about as high as some kits can make at 2133.
