PCMark 10 is the most recent version of the popular full system benchmark from UL. A standard benchmark run provides scores in three categories, which includes Essentials, Productivity, and Digital Content Creation. Wrapping up all three categories is an overall score in the end. With the completion of these synthetic simulating real-world behavior tests, the final scores show the Patriot Viper RGB White DDR4-4133 performing at the bottom overall, which is a bit unfortunate, but not necessarily too surprising. As mentioned in our review of the Ballistix Elite DDR4-4000, since the DRAM and Infinity Fabric frequencies run at a 1:1 ratio at DDR4-3600, anything else affects this ratio and therefore higher latency could occur. As such, the two DDR4-3600 kits provided better real-world results than the faster DDR4-4000 or DDR4-4133 numbers. Obviously, there is more than just memory frequency at play in these tests, but this could be a reason for why we got these results. Breaking down the numbers, the Patriot Viper RGB White DDR4-4133 was not in the bottom for all of these tests except for the Essentials category.
