The PassMark Performance 10 tests come down to four categories: CPU, Memory, 2D Graphics, and 3D graphics. This provides a nice variety of tests to perform on system hardware; something I will personally always take when it comes to benchmarking important components such as RAM modules. Even though PassMark Performance 10 takes memory capacity into account to an extent, this did not matter here, since all the tested RAM modules have the same memory capacity. The Thermaltake TOUGHRAM XG RGB DDR4-4000 2x8GB produced surprisingly results when it came to the memory-specific test, falling behind the other two kits. Interestingly though, the TOUGHRAM XG RGB placed first in the CPU segment and almost tied with the XPG Spectrix D50 DDR4-3600 2x8GB for first place in the 2D graphics test. It also had a decent score in the 3D graphics test, which shows there is more going on behind the scenes outside of pure clock frequency.
