IGP gaming, where's there's real difference
Here's where faster memory pays dividends on the latest APU from AMD, however. G.Skill's memory produces a default score that's eight per cent higher than lower-latency DDR3-1,600 memory.
If memory-related gains is what you're after Batman: Arkham City is the place to look. There's a 20 per cent uplift over DDR3-1,600 memory via the DX9 path and a 14 per cent gain when run through DX11. The increases in performance really do make a difference in real-world gameplay.
And there's an 11 per cent improvement in DiRT: Showdown. G.Skill's Ripjaws memory, then, performs in line with expectations set by previously-tested modules.
