Kingston FURY Renegade DDR4-3600 2x8GB CL16 vs Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB in detail

True latency

Kingston FURY Renegade DDR4-3600 2x8GB CL16 is the lower-latency kit at 8.89 ns, against 13.75 ns for Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB — a difference of 4.86 ns. That figure is what reconciles the two spec sheets: CAS latency counts clock cycles, so it only means something next to the clock it counts. Kingston FURY Renegade DDR4-3600 2x8GB CL16 runs 3600 MT/s at CL16; Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB runs 3200 MT/s at CL22.

Transfer rate

Kingston FURY Renegade DDR4-3600 2x8GB CL16 is rated 3600 MT/s against 3200 MT/s for Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB — 28800 MB/s per module, against 25600 MB/s. That is peak transfer rate, not access time: reaching a higher clock costs more cycles on each access, which is why the CAS numbers differ too, and why the true latency above is the figure that compares directly.

Price and tracked history

Kingston FURY Renegade DDR4-3600 2x8GB CL16 is tracked at 203,00 € — 12,69 € per gigabyte — and Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB at 105,99 €, or 6,62 €. Both are 16GB kits, so the totals compare directly: Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB is 97,01 € less than Kingston FURY Renegade DDR4-3600 2x8GB CL16. At 203,00 €, Kingston FURY Renegade DDR4-3600 2x8GB CL16 is running 67% below its own 90-day median. At 105,99 €, Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB is running 6% below its own 90-day median.

Kit layout

Kingston FURY Renegade DDR4-3600 2x8GB CL16 ships as 2 × 8GB and Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB ships as 2 × 8GB — the same number of sticks either way, so both populate a board's slots identically.

Voltage

Kingston FURY Renegade DDR4-3600 2x8GB CL16 is specified at 1.35 V and Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB at 1.2 V. That is the supply each kit's published profile asks the board for.

Lighting, timings and ECC

On the lighting question: Kingston FURY Renegade DDR4-3600 2x8GB CL16 does not have RGB lighting, and Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB does not have RGB lighting. On the full timing tuple, the numbers that follow CAS: Kingston FURY Renegade DDR4-3600 2x8GB CL16 runs 16-20-20, and Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB does not publish one. On error correction: Kingston FURY Renegade DDR4-3600 2x8GB CL16 is published with no ECC, and Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB is published with no ECC. Whether ECC is worth having depends on the platform as much as the modules — the board and the CPU have to support it too.

Which to buy

The two split the axes this page measures, so no one kit is the answer. The lower tracked price belongs to Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB; the lower true latency to Kingston FURY Renegade DDR4-3600 2x8GB CL16, 8.89 ns against 13.75 ns. Weighing money against latency is a decision about the machine, and it stays with the reader.
