HyperX Predator and Fury DDR4 RAM kits get updated -- the former includes capacities up to 256GB and speeds up to 4800MHz

Nowadays, 8GB of RAM is pretty much the bare minimum that should come with any decent computer. Sure, maybe some light users can get by fine with 4GB, but with memory prices so low, there is really no excuse for anything less than 8GB. Hell, I would recommend all consumers target 16GB -- if their budget allows it, of course.

With all of that said, there are some hardcore computer users -- primarily designers and creators -- that can benefit from much more than 8GB or 16GB. Just how much? It isn't crazy for some folks to need 32GB, 64GB, or even more. Today, HyperX unveils that its popular Predator and Fury lines DDR4 RGB RAM are getting some new kits. Believe it or not, you can now get Predator kits featuring capacities up to 256GB or with speeds up to 4800MHz! And yes, there are RGB variants of both Predator and Fury too.

As you can see above, there are 256GB kits, and there is a 4800MHz kit, but you obviously can't get a kit that is both. In fact, the speedy 4800MHz kit is limited to 16GB, while the 256GB kits are all 3200MHz. The 256GB kits will also require your motherboard to accommodate 8 sticks. Ultimately, only you can decide the configuration that will best meet your needs. You should be able to purchase these kits here soon.
