G.Skill Aegis DDR4-3200 2x8GB vs Kingston FURY Beast DDR4-3200 1x16GB in detail
True latency
Both kits land on 10.00 ns. Neither spec sheet differs from the other on the two figures that decide it — 3200 MT/s at CL16 on each side — so the reconciled result is identical rather than merely close.
Transfer rate
Both kits are rated 3200 MT/s, which is 25600 MB/s per module, and both are published at CL16. Those are the two figures the true latency above is computed from, so it comes out the same for each.
Kit layout
G.Skill Aegis DDR4-3200 2x8GB ships as 2 × 8GB and Kingston FURY Beast DDR4-3200 1x16GB ships as 2 × 8GB — the same number of sticks on both sides, so they populate a board's slots the same way.
