We've done a lot of X79 platform DRAM testing in the past few months and one kit that we've been itching to test was one that ran at 2.4 GHz or 2400 MHz. After working closely with Kingston on our X79 RAM Roundup, we were happy to hear from them that they had a 2400 MHz kit for the X79 platform to test. We initially planned to include this kit in our RAM roundup but ran into motherboard issues which we will detail later.We want to start this review off by saying that not all motherboards will be able to run 2400 MHz DDR3 in quad-channel and that we recommend checking with your motherboard vendor before actually buying this kit of RAM for your system. In our case, the Gigabyte X79-UD7 did support the 2400 MHz kit of RAM with XMP 2.0 settings, but only after a few BIOS updates. So keep that in mind.
