Conclusion
This Ballistix kit is a high performing, sleek looking pair of modules. However, considering they are a whole £50 more than their slower rated, but equally overclockable cousins, the 6400 modules, there seems little reason to pay the extra fifty. If you want to absolutely guarantee that your modules will overclock to 1000mhz speeds, then purchasing these modules would be a good plan. However, if you are content with spending less and "only" having a very good chance of reaching such speeds, you are better off with the 6400 modules of the same name.
| Pros | Cons |
| Good performance | Only overclocks to the same speeds as the 6400 modules |
| Overclockable | Overpriced because of the above Con |
| Anniversary heatspreaders and black PCB |
I'd like to thank our sponsors Crucial for providing us with this kit.
