It’s been a year since DDR5 launched and we’re now seeing higher-speed kits with tighter timings at a competitive cost making these DDR5 kits more feasible for users looking to upgrade to either Intel 13th Gen Core CPUs or AMD Ryzen 7000 series. Kingston has updated their Fury Beast line with faster and tighter kits with a touch of RGB. The Kingston Fury Beast RGB 32GB(2x16GB) 6000 MHz CL40 kit will be tested in our labs in time before we review the Intel Core i9 13900K.

Readings such as temperatures and power draws are recorded using HWMonitor, HWInfo64, and other relevant software for cross-checking.

Kingston FURY Beast RGB DDR5 Benchmarks

SuperPI 32M

Kingston Fury Beast RGB 32GB DDR5 6000 Review Superpi Benchmark

SuperPI is a single-threaded benchmark application that lets the CPU calculate Pi(Ï€) to the nth digit. In this benchmark, we selected the Pi calculation to 32M, the highest available for the app.

wPrime 1024M

Kingston Fury Beast RGB 32GB DDR5 6000 Review wprime Benchmark

wPrime is a benchmark tool similar to SuperPI, but the former takes on finding prime numbers using Newton’s Method. The benchmark is set to calculate 1024 million prime numbers, and the performance is measured according to calculation time.

AIDA64 Memory Benchmark

AIDA64 is a very popular and powerful monitoring tool, as well as a benchmarking application. AIDA64 is commonly used to stress test CPUs, especially testing if an overclock is stable. We used AIDA64’s Memory Benchmark to measure the data transfer bandwidth of the system memory.

GeekBench 5

Kingston Fury Beast RGB 32GB DDR5 6000 Review Geekbench 5 Benchmark

Geekbench is a multi-platform benchmark used to gauge CPU performance and compare them across Windows, Mac, and Mobile. Geekbench 5 is the latest version and doesn’t rely on memory than the previous Geekbench 4, making it a great tool to measure both single-core and multi-core CPU performance.

CINEBENCH R20 & Cinebench R23

Maxon’s Cinebench benchmark is one of the most iconic benchmark applications used by reviewers and enthusiasts. The latest Cinebench R20 uses the latest rendering architectures, including Intel’s Embree ray tracing technology and other advanced features from AMD and Intel that allow users to render the same scene on the same hard. Cinebench R20 uses a larger and more complex testing scene than Cinebench R20 by about 8x computational power and requires 4x the memory.

GOOGLE OCTANE 2.0

Kingston Fury Beast RGB 32GB DDR5 6000 Review Octane Benchmark

Google Octane 2.0 is a benchmark that measures a Javascript engine’s performance by running multiple tests representing different use cases of JavaScript applications. While Google Octane is retired and no longer maintained, it is still a good representation of today’s dynamic, interactive web applications. Our Google Octane 2.0 is run on Microsoft’s latest Chromium-based Edge browser.

V-RAY

V-Ray Benchmark is a stand-alone version V-Ray developed by Chaos Group. It is designed to test the CPU and GPU by rendering sample scenes at a fixed amount of time. V-Ray is a plug-in mostly utilized by 3D computer graphics software applications mainly for industrial design, product design, architecture, film, and video game production. V-Ray is not limited to 64-threads as it supports multi and mega-threading.

HANDBRAKE

Kingston Fury Beast RGB 32GB DDR5 6000 Review Handbrake Benchmark

Handbrake is a top-rated open-source video conversion software that is used by professionals, enthusiasts, and even reviewers as a reference point mainly because of its wide variety of media codecs. The rise of streaming and blogging makes video content, both encoding, and transcoding important for these people, regardless if they’re seasoned professionals or just starting out. Handbrake also takes advantage of AVX-512 and OpenCL to accelerate certain types of media codecs. Our Handbrake benchmark converts a 500MB MP4 video to H.264 to measure the processor’s performance.

CORONA RENDERER

Kingston Fury Beast RGB 32GB DDR5 6000 Review Corona Benchmark

Corona Renderer is an unbiased photorealistic render available for Autodesk 3Ds Max, Maxon Cinema 4D, and as a stand-alone application. Its popularity, similar to Blender, led Chaos Group to develop a benchmark version of the app which runs using Corona Renderer 1.3. Workstation systems, especially CPUs, can utilize Corona Benchmark as up to 72 threads can be used in the benchmark, making it very suitable for CPUs with various price segments.

Kingston FURY Beast DDR5 Temperatures

Kingston Fury Beast RGB 32GB DDR5 6000 Review Kingston Fury Beast RGB DDR5 Temps

The added RGB LEDs and the faster speed chips results in a 3°C higher temperature than the 5200MHz Fury Beast non RGB kit. There’s nothing to worry about the temperatures albeit you may have higher RAM temps if you populate all four DIMM slots.

CONCLUSION

Kingston Fury Beast RGB DDR5 6000MHz Review 019

The addition of RGB of the Kingston Fury Beast DDR5 RGB should not be your buying decision factor but is definitely one of the brightest RGB DDR5 kits in the market. Unlike other brands that have separate AMD and Intel exclusive kits, the Kingston Fury Beast RGB DDR5 is both Intel XMP and AMD Expo certified so you won’t have to change RAM kits when you switch from AMD to Intel or vice versa. 6,000 MHz speed is certainly on the fast side as far as memory is concerned albeit it would’ve been nice to see the max variant for the series reach up to 6,400MHz.

Our specific 6000MHz kit retails for Php 8,000 for the 16GB dual kit and Php 16,000 for the 32GB dual kit making it one of the best-value RGB DDR5 kits in the market. For reference, most kits of this price range are either 5200MHz or 5600MHz kit so if you’re after the best bang for your buck memory then the Kingston Fury Beast RGB DDR5 is one of the best ones out there.
