Kingston HyperX LoVo: If I want – it’s fast, if I want – it’s economical
Everybody know Kingston as manuacturer, but unfortunately we did not test product by them, so let us some presentation about the company:
Kingston Technology Company, Inc. is the world’s independent memory leader. Kingston develops, manufactures, sells memory and flash products for desktop PCs, laptops, servers, printers, PDAs, cell phones, digital cameras and MP3 players. Headquartered in Fountain Valley, California, USA. The company has manufacturing and logistics facilities in the United States, United Kingdom, Ireland, Taiwan, and China.

Performance and stability coalesced at HyperX memories, but not just in Kingston’s palette, it is very succesfull and liked at the whole market. Of course every product can not perfect in the same ways so characteristics of single variants are different, and they were developed according to different viewpoints.
Hyper LoVo is a very interesting and new family in HyperX line, LoVo means Low Voltage. Its name is very sneak so we can know now moduls uses less power than other memories. Of course they are DDR3 moduls, in case 2 × 2GB KHX1866C9D3LK2/4GX* serial number package which is a limited edition and the fastest member of LoVo palette.
Members of LoVo series:
- KHX1333C9D3UK2/4GX: 4GB 1333MHz Kit of 2 for XMP ultra low voltage 9-9-9-27 1,25 V
- KHX1600C9D3LK2/4GX:
- 4GB 1600MHz Kit of 2 for XMP – Profile 1 – low voltage 9-9-9-27 1,35 V
- 4GB 1333MHz Kit of 2 for XMP – Profile 2 – ultra low voltage 9-9-9-27 1,25 V
- KHX1800C9D3LK2/4GX:
- 4GB 1600MHz Kit of 2 for XMP – Profile 1 – low voltage 9-9-9-27 1,35 V
4GB 1800MHz Kit of 2 for XMP – Profile 2 – low voltage 9-9-9-27 1,35 V
- KHX1866C9D3LK2/4GX:
- 4GB 1866MHz Kit of 2 for XMP – Profile 1 – low voltage 9-9-9-27 1,35 V
- 4GB 1600MHz Kit of 2 for XMP – Profile 2 – ultra low voltage 9-9-9-27 1,25 V
Every package has a same feature, modules use the same green cooler panels which are really suggest the usual HyperX (not T1) cooler solutions just the color is different. Green symbolize ECO that is showing environmentally aware spirituality and energy efficiency. Common too, that all expenses have two — for Intel’s criteria suitable — XMP profile (function profile) supports, these parameters can be observed in the above enumeration.
The package we got is working on 1866 MHz with the faster profile, its voltage is 1,35V, but it is still lower than usual JEDEC’s 1,5V which has 1333 Mhz clock speed and CL9 latency. LoVo extends bigger performance, more favourable consumer and heat production indicators with the fastest XMP profile too. Its appetite decreases with second profile, its voltage is 1,25V and clock speed is 1600 Mhz, latency is 9-9-9-27. LoVo series provides high speed with more economically, but for tuning is a good solution too. 1866 Mhz frequency is still appreciable, but Kingston give that information LoVo is not good not only low voltage, but it is useful in taller much taller tenseness provinces which needs in case of tuning of course. It is able to tolerate 1,8 V value according to single sources, but we do not recommend its trial this in deficiency of proper vocational knowledge between home circumstances, because we can damage memory controllers of Intel Core iX processors, why recommended maximal value is 1,65V.
Why is HyperX LoVo good? It provides big performance inn case of every XMP profile, but has much more favourable consumer and warmth values than avarage models, and if it is not important good to know it has no reason to shame in tuning neither. We have an economical and agressive tuning memory at once.
We can see in the next page how it looks in the practice!
