Hi everyone!
I received all of the parts for my build and after assembly I wanted to test the RAM before overclocking the Devils Canyon CPU I got.
Every single stick of my G.Skill Trident X RAM 2133 9-11-11-31 fails the Hammer Test. I've read up on the test itself, and I have also been told by G.Skill "The Hammer test is only for DDR4 RAM, if it passes the other tests the RAM is fine". From what I've read this is not necessarily true; but also to my knowledge now I expect that any replacement Trident X RAM will have the same problem.
I know "how big of a problem" it is, but what I'm wondering is, has anyone else encountered this with G.Skill? Does Corsair Vengeance Pro or Dominator have the same issues? I'm trying to make an educated decision here on whether or not to switch brands. Ideally, I would have no memory issues.
Thanks!
