SUMMARY

The Acer Predator Hermes 6800MHz memory kit is built like a tank and feels like a quality memory kit in hand. It overclocks well and performs as expected making it a good candidate for your next build. Unfortunately, we can't seem to find it for sale anywhere and we don't know when it'll be on the market.
