RAM Kingston Fury. HyperX RAM: review, characteristics, overclocking

Don't think that with the release of a new type of RAM DDR4, the current DDR3 will go away. After all, for some time the new standard will be the lot of only enthusiasts. In addition, existing technologies will not allow the immediate release of fast, capacious and cheap microcircuits. You may have to wait even more than one year. I remember, as now, those glorious times when DDR3 memory just went on sale and motherboards with its support were introduced.

However, a fair amount of time passed before it reached the mass segment, fell in price and became the main standard, and DDR2 moved to the section of aging equipment. By the way, in those days there were even models of motherboards for the Intel LGA 775 socket that supported both modern DDR3 and old DDR2. But then Nehalem came along with the new Bloomfield processor core, and buyers began to buy three memory sticks because the number of channels became exactly that. This event can easily be called a milestone in the popularization of the DDR3 standard.

Why wasn't it popular on the Intel LGA 775 platform? Everything is very simple: existing technologies at that time did not allow the creation of microcircuits capable of operating at frequencies of 3000 MHz. The best memory sticks then could demonstrate something around 1600 MHz, but with lower timings. And here lies another trick. The frequency can be at least 3500 MHz, but the delays can be so huge that performance can drop below the standard mode. Therefore, sometimes you can see in the price list what seems to be the same model, but with a difference of one in the CL (Clock Latency) parameter, with a price tag that is twice as different. The cost of memory also plays an important role. The latter has been trading on the stock market for quite some time, and therefore some companies purchase it from manufacturers for future use.

Kingston is a very large player in the RAM market, given the fact that it does not produce chips itself. Essentially, Kingston sources them from various third-party manufacturers, makes the circuit boards, and prepares the packaging. Almost all well-known and popular brands do exactly the same thing, for example, Corsair, Geil, G.Skill, Mushkin and Transcend. Sometimes it even seems that if Samsung, Hynix, Elpida and Micron themselves present products for enthusiasts, then the previous list of vendors will not stay afloat for long, although in reality everything is not so simple. Thus, Kingston is famous for producing products for a very broad segment of consumers: it covers both the desktop and server segments, and memory for various peripheral devices such as printers.

The hero of this review will be the Kingston HyperX Fury HX318C10FK2/8 DDR3-1866 RAM kit. This isn't a completely new solution, but it does represent a completely different approach. Currently, Kingston produces DDR3 memory with improved frequency characteristics that is available to all customers without exception. Just recently, such modules cost significantly more, but now they are sold at almost the same price as noname modules with JEDEC DDR3 1066 and 1333 standards. But now the frequencies have increased and amount to 1866 MHz.

Packaging and accessories

The Kingston HyperX line has been on the market for a long time, and during this time it has become very popular. The secret of success is as simple as an orange. The strips are dressed in a shell of two radiators, frequencies are increased, timings are reduced, but most importantly, they are sold cheaper than competing companies charge for their modules with similar characteristics.

By the way, throughout the development of the HyperX brand, the radiators were painted blue. There were, of course, exceptions, but this time the company really decided to diversify the color palette, and thereby not only refresh the product line, but also attract new customers.

Now you can find modules in white, red, black and blue radiators. In principle, the only color missing is yellow, but green has already been staked out for the HyperX LoVo series solutions with reduced power consumption.

Traditionally, packaging greets us with a plastic blister.

As usual, it is not sealed around the perimeter, but consists of two halves. The top one is transparent and the modules themselves are clearly visible through it. The other is a black tray with two slats inserted into a recess. By the way, this is a set of two modules of 4 GB each.

Both parts are sealed with a white paper sticker, which, in addition to the company logo, contains markings and partial information about the frequency and timings. Here you can find out that the birthplace of these products is Taiwan.

The sticker is fixed at the back, so to open the package it is best to cut it from one of the sides.

Despite the fact that Fury is translated from English as “Fury” or “Fury,” the memory sticks in question look very peaceful and attractive, perhaps due to the classic blue color, but the other colors provide a more aggressive look.

In this case, the package package cannot be called luxurious, but all Kingston memory modules of the HyperX series are equipped with similar ones. So, we have a sticker on the case and a small booklet about the warranty with installation instructions. It also states that the planks are 100% tested and come with a lifetime warranty.

Remember the situation when, while dismantling the cooling system of Crucial modules, I accidentally tore off the microcircuits? So, they were replaced without any problems with similar ones under warranty, although before that we still had to work with superglue. What does this mean? That the right warranty saves the user from various incidents, and in this regard, branded boxed memory looks preferable to the handicraft Hynix, which is not much cheaper but brings more problems. So, for example, only Intel platforms could work successfully with the fake I came across, and since earlier during the assembly it was decided to save money and choose AMD, a mistake was inevitable.

Design and features of memory modules

The kit includes two modules of 4 GB each. By modern standards, this is enough for most everyday tasks on a home or office computer. Since modern processors acquire a large number of cores, it becomes relevant to create several virtual systems based on one physical machine, which will effectively “eat up” all the computing resources. By the way, they also like the memory, so personally, 8 GB has not been enough for me for a long time, and I have to use this configuration only for tests. Of course, the manufacturer’s model range also includes 16 GB kits, but a more modest version arrived for testing.

Each memory module is equipped with a cooling system, which consists of two plates. In turn, they are made of aluminum alloy, painted blue and equipped with a strip of heat-conducting adhesive in the middle.

It is worth noting that the chips on the printed circuit board are soldered only on one side, and on the other there is a special insert to which the radiator is glued.

By the way, both parts, in addition to the adhesive base, are fastened to each other using special locks on top.

In addition, it can be noted that each half has non-uniform embossing, but is mirrored relative to the printed circuit board on both sides.

On one side there is the Fury inscription and HyperX engraving.

On the other there is only a flat surface, but on it you can see a paper sticker with markings.

The only useful information you can find out here is the model name and operating voltage.

As noted above, memory chips are soldered only on one side of the printed circuit board. Removing the radiator from them was no problem, but nothing happened on the reverse side, since the insert is long, smooth and comes into contact with the entire surface of the adhesive tape. It is worth considering that the printed circuit board here is still not eight-layer and is quite flexible. In order to avoid damage to the module, it was decided not to take risks and stop trying to remove the radiator from the other side after several unsuccessful approaches.

In the case of Kingston HyperX Fury HX318C10FK2/8, chips manufactured by SKhynix are installed, labeled H5TQ4G83MFR H9C.

You may recall that the top-end Kingston HyperX KHX28C12T2K2/8X boards had SKhynix H5TQ4G83MFR PBC chips.

In appearance, their differences are not very significant, but in fact they demonstrate different levels of frequency potential.

In the middle of the PCB you can find an SPD chip.

There’s nothing else interesting, so it’s time to move on to testing.

In this review I will share about the RAM KINGSTON HyperX FURY Black Series HX318C10FB/4 DDR3 - 4GB 1866, I bought two sticks, because I actually wanted to buy a set of similar memory, but for some reason one of each turned out to be much cheaper, in the review I will also compare it with a whale CORSAIR CMV4GX3M2A1333C9 DDR3 - 2x 2GB. So let's see if there will be an increase in the performance of the video core in synthetic and 3D tests.

It’s very good that the radiators are not high, you can see in the photo that if they were taller they wouldn’t fit with many top-oriented coolers, by the way, the cooler is on the Cooler Master Gemini M4 processor. But still, to install memory on the motherboard, we had to dismantle the cooling system.

Well, let’s test, the amount of allocated memory in the BIOS is set to auto, but from the screenshots you can see that 768mb is allocated. This is what GPU-Z memory shows us

1333 Mhz 1866 Mhz 2133 Mhz respectively.

From the screenshots you can see the throughput has increased significantly from 21.3 GB/s to 29.9 GB/s at the standard frequency of 1866 MHz and to 34.1 GB/s at 2133 MHz.

As a result, there is an increase in 3D, and a bad one, in the AIDA 64 tests, such ambiguous results, I think, also depend on the memory timings and the speed of the memory controller. I tried at 2400 MHz, it doesn’t start, maybe I should play with the timings and it will work, for the test I didn’t specifically configure anything extra, I just set the memory frequency to the desired one.

I liked this RAM, it’s an excellent option for the money, a good 10-year warranty, the radiators are made without fanaticism, it will fit with most cooling systems without problems, I took 2133 MHz without any problems or dances.

Kingston Technology is a large American manufacturer of computer components related to digital information storage.

The company is one of the key suppliers of modules and .

Recently, the corporation has been relying not on corporate clients, but on ordinary consumers.

It was for them that Kingston HyperX FURY RAM was presented in the spring of 2014.

It is aimed at both powerful home systems and high-performance computers of enthusiasts: gamers, overclockers.

Contents:

There are two memory series on the market DDR3 And DDR4.

First, the top model was released, but then the developers were faced with a difficult problem to solve.

Almost no modern application intended for home and corporate use is optimized for working with high-frequency DDR4 RAM.

What can we say about programs and games released several years ago?

Software developers do not have time to rewrite code and retrain as quickly as manufacturers increase their potential.

Having bought an overclocking kit with a frequency reaching 3 GHz, you will simply overpay for unnecessary stock, and a set of top-end RAM and slower DDR3 can differ in price by a hundred or even $150.

Agree, the difference is colossal, as for the Russian consumer. The USA and Europe have their own views on the situation.

The HyperX FURY lineup is quite wide.

It includes both single modules with a capacity of 4 GB or more, as well as sets consisting of a pair, four and eight modules, the volume of each of which starts from the same 4 GB and ends at 64 GB. Thus, any user will be able to choose the solution that is most suitable for their range of tasks.

Let's look at what memory modules of different generations are: DDR3-1600 and top DDR4-2400.

Let's start the review with the cheaper and more practical one.

DDR3 kit specifications

HX316C10FBK2/16 modules are equipped with radiators of various colors: red, white, blue and black color.

Users are offered to choose between 4 and 8 GB sticks or a kit for assembling more powerful systems, where each stick is equipped with 8/16 GB chips.

The clock frequency ranges from 1333 to 1866 MHz. We chose a model with an average speed of 1600 MHz.

The memory feature is automatic recognition of the working platform and automatic acceleration at high loads up to the maximum effective frequency.

The asymmetrical design of the heat-dissipating elements, even though they are virtually always hidden from the user’s eyes, places emphasis on the purpose of the devices.

More detailed information about the selected model HX316C10FBK2/16

Package

For many years, the company has not changed traditions and supplies them in dense polymer packaging.

The transparent packaging additionally serves as a seal, signaling the opening of the slats.

Testing system

The maximum achievable operating frequency is 1.6 GHz with stated time delays of 10-10-10-30.

The optimal configuration was determined correctly.

The system stopped at the statistical average of 1280 MHz.

Theoretical calculations and their practical implementation, as practice has repeatedly proven, are different things. Numerous tests have shown that 1600 MHz is far from the limit of the Kingston HyperX FURY.

By overclocking it was found that with a slight increase in time delays to 11-11-11-35, the modules can function properly at a frequency of 2133 MHz, which exceeds the technical indicators of the older model (1.8 GHz). The rated operating voltage of 1.35 was within acceptable limits.

Further overclocking could realistically be carried out to 2400 MHz with increasing delays to 12-12-12-44 without the risk of damaging the modules.

RAM should only be installed in high-performance systems, for example, based on the fourth generation Intel Haswell.

At high loads, overclocking even to the maximum possible limit has a positive effect.

The results of synthetic tests demonstrate the difference in performance when changing the operating frequency (from 1333 to 1866 MHz). It is about 15% at 1600 and 36% at 1866 MHz. We do not publish the overclocking result, which the manufacturer will not approve, but believe me, it is close to 50%.

Don't assume that synthetic results and real-world performance are the same thing.

The performance gain when performing real tasks is not so bright - only 3-10%.

Conclusion

Main question: “Is it worth the expense?” open.

You will receive:

beautiful filling of the system unit, especially if it is partially transparent;
the ability to choose the appropriate module or kit;
lifetime warranty;
excellent overclocking potential and performance gain.

At the same time:

the maximum RAM capacity of one set is 16 GB;
the price is not always justified: few applications require such fast RAM and its overclocking potential.

Technical indicators of the DDR4 kit

With the high-performance option, we also settled on a medium kit, in our case this is a set of four-channel memory HX424C15FBK4/32 with a total capacity of 32 GB and 2400 GHz and a lower operating voltage of 1.2 V compared to the previous sample.

Delivery set and form factor

The second set of HyperX FURY is also sold in compact transparent plastic packaging, designed to protect devices from minor mechanical damage and static electric shock.

There is a sticker on the box with the brand name, technical characteristics of the memory sticks and information that they are compatible with Intel, which supports operation in four-channel mode.

The model name is deciphered as follows:

HX– denotes belonging to the HyperX line;
4 – DDR4 RAM standard;
24 − effective operating frequency is 2400 MHz;
C− modules for desktop computers;
15 – time delay CAS Latency;
F− belongs to the FURY series;
B– Black – indicates the color of the radiators;
K4– number of strips in the set;
32 – total capacity of the set is 32 GB.

The memory is capable of automatically changing the operating frequency.

With HyperX FURY, there is no need to set these parameters manually in the motherboard BIOS/UEFI ( Kingston says so; Is this really true or just loud statements, tests will show ).

In addition to the devices themselves, the package contains folded installation instructions for slots, a branded sticker and a warranty card.

There is no need to fill it out, because all memory in the line has a lifetime warranty, which is void if the strips were purchased or worked separately and not together.

Black radiators hint at the scope of application and unsurpassed power beneath them.

When overclocking in old and poorly ventilated cases, they will contribute to improved and accelerated removal of thermal energy from the surface of HX424C15FBK4/32 chips.

The small height, even with radiators, does not cause problems when installing modules in any device, which is an undeniable advantage in comparison with similar devices from competitors.

A passive cooling system is a pair of bonded plates.

Removing them is as easy as putting them back, but doing so will void the lifetime warranty.

Inquiring minds should know this right away.

Gaskets with unsurpassed thermal conductivity are located between the microcircuits and the largest radiator elements.

SPD EEPROM chip is made in the form of a STTS2004 chip with a volume of 4 kilobytes, equipped with a sensor for changing the temperature within the range of 25°C - 125°C. It is compatible with dual channel I 2 C.

Technical parameters and testing

The following configuration was used to test performance and overclocking potential.

The primary analysis was carried out Thaiphoon Burner utility– a highly specialized tool for testing and diagnosing RAM.

From the diagnostic window you can see that in addition to the standard operating modes, the memory is equipped with one additional mode.AIDA64. The same was shown by tests, the outcome of which greatly depends on the operating frequency of the RAM.

When overclocked from 2133 to 3000 GHz Reading speed increases by 10%, A speed of copying information by as much as 28%. And this is with a voltage of only 1.35 V. The timings were as follows: 15-16-16-39. The CAS Latency parameter - the main delay - remained at the same level, although for real tasks there is little practical benefit from this.

By experimenting with delays, you can achieve a slight drop or in synthetic programs.

But the performance is very good even without overclocking.

Given such a slight increase in latency and voltage, an operating frequency of 3 GHz is not the limit. And the radiators showed their best performance during overclocking.

During tests, the temperature of the strips did not exceed 44 °C, which is good, given the small dimensions and high operating frequency.

And the maximum permissible temperature, which does not affect (according to the developer) the physical properties of the board elements, is as much as 85 °C.

During normal operation, it is at the level of the human body (about 36 ° C), but this is in an open case. When closed it will rise a few degrees.

Price

Conclusion

HyperX FURY HX424C15FBK4/32 is a balanced solution (in comparison with similar modules) in terms of price/performance/overclocking potential.

Any basic kit is quite enough to solve any problems, and overclocking capabilities compensate for the lack of power, if it ever appears.

One way or another, the enthusiast will have an incredible supply, which he will not be able to use for a long time.

Lifetime Guarantee– a nice bonus and incentive to pay attention to the RAM kit from Kingston.

Why you should buy:

unlimited warranty with proper use;
very high speed characteristics;
automatic selection of operating mode;
compact and equipped with radiators;
has great overclocking potential;
efficient cooling;
variety of delivery kits.

It's not worth it because:

expensive, although many analogues are even more expensive;
there will be no benefit from such great power and the possibility of increasing it in the next 5 years.

In today's material we will look at one new and interesting set of RAM manufactured by Kingston. First of all, it is worth recalling that this company is a long-standing and well-known manufacturer of memory modules on the market.

The history of the company goes back to the distant (by IT standards) 1987 and since then Kingston has been steadily increasing its momentum and continues to do so to this day.

Kingston HyperX Fury 2 x 8 GB

As our readers may have noticed, our lists of materials have already included many drives from this manufacturer, but we will be looking at memory for the first time. The first thing you need to know about the kit present in the tests is that it belongs to two series at once: HyperX and Fury.

The HyperX series of devices is high-performance. It doesn’t matter whether a solid-state drive or a flash drive was released under this brand. You can be sure that any such device has excellent characteristics. This brand often includes products for enthusiasts and gamers. The Fury series is a derivative intended for gaming builds. For example, SSD HyperX Fury has a low price on the market, but at the same time sufficient performance. All Fury devices will allow you to easily upgrade your users' gaming machines without spending extra money. Kingston has prepared the following technical specifications for memory modules:

So, memory kits (or individual sticks) will have from 4 to 8 GB and operate at speeds from 1333 MHz and up to 1866 MHz at CL9 and 10, respectively, the voltage corresponds to 1.5 V. In addition, bright radiators are used, not so much for dissipating small amounts of heat, just enough to create your own style. Now let's take a closer look at the device.

The memory is supplied in a small plastic box with a transparent lid, through which the strips themselves are clearly visible. The case is surrounded by a sticker with markings and characteristics. In this case, we have a dual-channel set offering 16 GB at a frequency and latency of 1600 MHz and CL10.

Although in such a package there is little space for any kind of configuration, it is still present:

User's Guide;
Branded sticker.

The manufacturer also provides a lifetime warranty (lifetime of the series) and states that modules are tested for compatibility.

The planks are built on a black printed circuit board and have small aluminum heatsinks. In this case, painted blue, but there are others in the assortment (black, red and white). On one side, the dies have branded logos of the series, and on the reverse side there is a sticker with technical markings.

The heatsinks are thin enough and fit tightly to the printed circuit board and chips, so they should not interfere with the installation of processor cooling systems.

This is especially noticeable on the upper edge of the radiator, which does not use very prominent elements.

As a result, HyperX Fury trims are literally several millimeters higher than most standard DDR3 memory modules.

Methodology, bench and testing of Kingston DDR3 HyperX Fury RAM

It's time to move on to testing, but first, let's look at the methodology. To ensure that the sample results are not empty in the graphs, we have added three typical groups of results:
Regular DDR3 1333 MHz CL9: Budget memory class. This is used in any computer when they want to save as much as possible on a given PC subsystem. Often this approach is more profitable if high volume is required.
Gamer DDR3 1600 MHz CL10: Inexpensive memory, but a higher class. Installed in more expensive assemblies or gaming computers.
Enthusiast DDR3 1866 MHz CL10: High-performance memory, purchased in expensive assemblies of efficient computers.

These are only conditional guidelines for comparing the performance of the tested samples.

All testing of RAM is carried out on a bench with the following configuration:

Processor: Intel Core i7-4770K Haswell
Video card: Gigabyte NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 GV-N770OC-4GD
RAM: Kingston HyperX Fury 2 x 8 GB
Motherboard: Asus MAXIMUS VII HERO Z97
Monitor: ASUS PB278Q, 27″ (2560 x 1440)
Power supply: Xilence XQ1200 1200W
Operating system: Windows 7 x64
Video driver: ForceWare 337.88

To check the processor-memory connection, the following applications and (or) actions are used.

PC Mark 8 (Home test group, final result in conventional units);
WinRAR 5.0 (integrated test, result in KB/s);
X264 Benchmark 5.0.1 (coding test group, Pass 1 result in FPS);
AIDA64 Extreme Edition (Cache & memory benchmark, result in MB\s and ns).

To check the video card-memory connection, the following applications and (or) actions are used.

Tests using the integrated video core:

3DMark (Ice Storm subtest, Extreme settings profile, final result in arbitrary units)
GRID 2 (Built-in benchmark, 1280 x 720, settings profile “HIGH”, anti-aliasing disabled, result in AVG FPS)
Tomb Rider (Built-in benchmark, 1280 x 720, “MID” settings profile, anti-aliasing disabled, result in AVG FPS)
Metro: Last Light (Built-in benchmark, 1280 x 720, DX11, LOW settings profile, anti-aliasing, Physx and tessellation disabled)

Tests using a discrete video card:

3DMark (Sky Diver subtest, Default settings profile, final result in arbitrary units)
GRID 2 (Built-in benchmark, 1920x1080, “ULTRA” settings profile, MSAA 4X, result in AVG FPS)
Tomb Rider (Built-in benchmark, 1920x1080, “Very High” settings profile, FXAA, Tress FX enabled, result in AVG FPS)
Metro: Last Light (Built-in benchmark, 1920x1080, DX11, “Very High” settings profile, SSAA and Physx disabled, “Very High” tessellation settings profile)

The CPU-Z utility allows you to read the main memory profiles. For our platform, the most efficient set of presets worked: 1600 MHz with delays of 10-10-10-30-1T. In this case, the voltage is standard and is 1.5 V. Let us recall that the safe voltage for memory and processor is considered to be 1.65 V. Connection: processor-memory

So, the tested models have a frequency of 1600 MHz, but at the same time lower (relative to standard brackets) latencies. We see that the speed of the memory subsystem is at a fairly high level, almost like 1866 MHz memory. Although, judging by the latency level, there is no difference between 1600 CL11 and 1600 CL10 and even gets worse, which indicates a small error in the results.

In the PC Mark 8 test, there is no big difference between the memory, but you can see that the Kingston modules outperform the 1600 MHz and 1866 MHz modules due to reduced latencies.

The video encoding benchmark is more sensitive to the memory subsystem; as a result, we see that the DDR3 tested are between 1600 and 1866 MHz in terms of operating speed.

The same can be said for archiving, where lower latency allows you to move closer to higher effective frequency models. Connection: video card-memory, integrated video core

For an integrated video core, memory speed is critical to performance, which is why these disciplines will see significant growth in results. Interestingly, the lower frequency and latencies still outperform the 1866 MHz memory.

Winning the 3DMark test, however, did not guarantee a convincing win in gaming tests, however, the memory still remains one of the best.

Discrete graphics card

When using a discrete graphics card, the difference is not as obvious, but is present, since the figures are compared with reference memory with a frequency of 1866 MHz.

A little about overclocking

RAM can be overclocked using the BIOS of motherboards; just select the operating frequencies and timings, as well as voltage. When setting the voltage, it is worth remembering that 1.65 V is the last relatively safe limit when the memory and processor will not degrade, and even in this case a lot depends on the chips themselves. After setting the necessary parameters and the operating system starts normally, you should additionally test the memory. In general, strictly speaking, this should be done not from the system, but from the boot image, otherwise the OS will take part of the memory for itself, and it will “avoid” the tests. In any case, memory is tested by long and monotonous test cycles, like Prime and MemTest. Working without a single failure during the night (8 hours) is considered a good result.

In our case, stability was achieved by overclocking to 2000 MHz, while the main timings remained virtually unchanged (10-10-10), the tRAS value was increased from 30 to 35, and the Command Rate from 1T to 2T. The voltage was increased from 1.5 V to 1.65 V.

As can be seen from the AIDA screenshot and graphs, the performance of the memory subsystem has increased significantly, this happened because the strips remained with almost the same timings. As a rule, to increase the frequency, you also need to raise the timings, which slightly reduces the performance. In this case, the memory set performed just fine, significantly increasing efficiency, however, we must remember that overclocking is a lottery and not everyone wins.

Conclusion

We tested the Kingston HyperX Fury 16GB dual-channel RAM kit. This company has produced a successful product that combines positive speed indicators and a relatively low price. Gamers (for whom the Fury line is designed) should be satisfied. Such a kit can be easily afforded by a person who is far from gaming, but who is involved in archiving or encoding, since the memory has a good combination of price and efficiency.

Considering all the data received, as well as good overclocking performance, we have no choice but to give the well-deserved Gamer Choice award.

We express many thanks Kingston for providing a set of RAM for testing.

We use cookies to monitor the use of our site, collect non-personal information about our users, store your preferences and other information on your computer in order to save you time by eliminating the need to repeatedly enter the same information, and to displaying your personalized content on your subsequent visits to our site. This information is also used for statistical studies aimed at adjusting content according to user preferences.

Aggregated information.

We may combine in a non-identifiable format the personal information you provide and the personal information provided by other users, thereby creating aggregate data. We plan to analyze aggregated data primarily for the purpose of tracking group trends. We do not link aggregated user data to personally identifiable information, so aggregated data cannot be used to contact or identify you. Instead of using actual names, we will use usernames during aggregate data creation and analysis. For statistical purposes and to track group trends, anonymous aggregated data may be provided to other companies with whom we interact.
