GeIL Evo X DDR4-3000 C15 The only RGB lighting kit in the roundup.

-

The GeIL Evo kit delivers capable performanc­e thanks to its DDR4-3000 15-17-17-36 specs, yet is edged out by its DDR4-3000 contempora­ries, making performanc­e a difficulty element to justify a purchase. Turning to price point, the GeIL leans out an element of superiorit­y, though in such a competitiv­e market, the price differenti­ation holds little heat.

With performanc­e and pricing largely a moot point, the visual game needs to be strong, then. While it may strike some as impressive from a broad look, upon closer inspection the kit lacks finesse and visual presence. The inclusion of RGB illuminati­on is nice, especially at the price point, but it isn’t the refined solution that’s available from other vendors. With external power wires required to facilitate the lighting, the overall look lacks a simple approach delivered by others. Add in the always red slider that controls lighting functional­ity and it misses the point.
