Ripjaws-X Overview
G.Skill uses the same color scheme on these modules as they did on the original Ripjaws, which is red and black. This is of course a dual channel kit so we have 2 separate modules. On the front of each module is a sticker with both the G.Skill and Ripjaws-X logos.
The heatspreaders that G.Skill uses are bright red, which will definitely stand out inside of your case. The heatspreader design is a little different from the original Ripjaws. On the Ripjaws-X modules the fins point up towards the center of the module as you can see in the photos below.
On the opposite side of the modules you have a sticker that tells you all about your memory. The sticker tells us this is the F3-17000CL9D-8GBXLD kit, which is a DDR3-2133 CL9 kit with timings of 9-11-9-28 and runs at 1.65v. It also tells us this is an 8GB kit.
The Silence II cooler is a pretty simple device. It is made up of 2 50mm fans that will be positioned above the modules. Each fan runs at 3500 RPM and has blue LEDs.
