G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4 3600 (PC4 28800) Desktop Memory Model F4-3600C16D-32GTZR

Pros: XMP works for those who want to use it
Possibly the top B Die bin available in a dual rank dual channel kit
Excellent for manual tuning/overclocking as should be expected

Cons: A bit pricey I suppose, but to get the best you have to pay for the best
Probably not the best option for users who want to simply “set and forget” with XMP

Overall Review: —This kit is excellent. I was able to clock this kit up to 4133 18-18-18-38 @ 1.52V on an AsRock Z390 Phantom gaming ITX/AC motherboard with a 9900k, which is absolutely fantastic for a dual rank memory configuration. I didn’t like the required voltage to hit that frequency, so I settled for 3600 14-14-14-30 @ 1.42V with extremely tightened secondary and tertiary timings which gives me incredible performance and is very impressive as well. From my experience, it can be difficult to get single rank kits into that performance bracket, never mind that this kit can do it at such (relatively) low voltage. Keep in mind, as with all things overclocking, there is going to be variance that depends on a number of factors, including IMC, motherboard, and the memory ICs themselves, and to a lesser extent, the PCB design of the kit as well. I think it is very possible that this kit is one of the best bins available in this configuration.

Something to keep in mind, is that I would not recommend this kit to anyone that doesn’t plan on manually tuning/overclocking. This kit is excellent for such endeavors, but if you’re looking to get a kit that you can just set XMP on and let it run, much, much better value can be had. Realistically, XMP settings on memory kits are so loose to ensure compatibility, that they all might as well be the same, even though Samsung B Die ICs can run much, much tighter timings than just about everything else with little issue. If all you’re after is XMP compatibility, then might as well get something less expensive with comparable timings, like a CJR Kit for nearly half the price. As for overclocking, I’m fairly well convinced you can’t do any better.

Pros: – B die
– Great OC potential

Overall Review: – I linked my timing to help other folks reach it. Managed to hit 3800cl16-16-16-16-30

Pros: – Samsung B-Die in 2x16GB sticks
– Rock solid at 3733MHz

Cons: Nothing specific to the performance of the memory itself. The LEDs are nice but color changes can be wonky depending on color and animation.

Overall Review: Prior to purchase, my system had the TridentZ 3200MHz 16GB variant. The TridentZ series has been reliable so, wanting faster and larger memory, I opted to stick with G.Skill.

The magical frequency sweet spot of 3733MHz was what I was after and this DIMM doesn’t disappoint. It has been rock solid at 1.375V at CL16. Being Samsung B-Die, there’s no shortage of online discussion surrounding this model so you’re bound to find information to help you push this memory to its limit.

If you’re not interested in tuning memory passed its XMP profile, save yourself money and check out other DIMMs from G.Skill that might better serve your needs. Otherwise, this DIMM will check all your OC boxes!

Pros: XMP set and forget
Samsung B-Die
Quad Rank performance in a 2 channel Slot configuration.
Over Clocking? Heck Yeah.

Cons: Price of course
But it’s cheaper than NEO branded kit.

Overall Review: I purchased these as the Neo 2×16 kit was out of stock. I wasn’t sure if these would work or not, as they are not on the QVL of my motherboard. I had to wait over a month to for my motherboard to arrive to test it out.

XMP profile worked flawlessly. (and i saved myself a few bucks over the Neo’s)

I’m running a Asus Rog Strix 570-i (1407 bios) / 3900x in a Mini-itx case. Only put together yesterday (june 29, 2020) so I haven’t had time to try and over clock the memory just yet. However I’m confident i can either get a bit more speed 3733 or 3800 with same or tighter Timings…

It’s been running Handbrake with multiple instances at about 90% cpu load for about 24 hours now, and not a single hiccup. AMD’s stock boost is holding steady at 4.1 across all cores. (No real point OC’ing the CPU, but heck yes OC’ing the Dram is worthwhile.)

As it is it’s running running 3600 16-16-16-36 1T out of the box.

OC’ing the Ram is my goal this weekend.

Pros: RGB
3600MHz 16-16-16-36
looks very fancy

Cons: RBG not compatible with iCUE since it only works with Corsair products, I used the G.SKILL Trident Z Lighting Control software instead and it works

I was unable to go past 3100MHz with my 6700k and my EVGA Z270 FTW K so I’m guessing it’s a hardware limitations, it’s not a RAM issue

Overall Review: it’s still an excellent product and I’ll do an updated review when I upgrade my system soon

Pros: Got my kit to run flawlessly at 4000 16-17-17-36 492 2T using only 1.44v!

Cons: Price I paid in 2/2020 for this kit, though still worth it

Overall Review: Got this kit for a soon to be had Intel i7 10700K build, which didn’t come together for another four months. Had to have it, afraid it’d be gone by that time; right now as of 10/2020, it’s almost crazy inexpensive for what it is. The kit is in a Asus ROG Maximus Hero XII with my 10700K at 5Ghz. Hitting a rock solid 4000 16-17-17-36 at 1.44v is far better than I’d ever had expected for a 2x16GB kit, and those heat sinks do their job well too. Aida64 latency is 43.2 nsec, though not blistering compared to a high end OC for 24/7 use that is mighty fine. Completely satisfied and I highly recommend this kit.

I could NOT get this kit to run stable at 1T with my build. Surprised to see the reviewers that were able to.

Pros: -XMP Profile worked out of the box.
-Rock solid stability with advertised clocks and timings.
-Great overclocking potential.
-Dual-channel, dual rank kit of Samsung B-die.

Cons: -Expensive. But if you’re buying this, you’re not looking for something cheap.

Overall Review: Highly recommended.

Managed to overclock this kit to 16-16-16-32 CR13800Mhz stable @1.4v with Asus Crosshair VII Hero X470 and Ryzen 3600XT (1900Mhz Infinity fabric).

Pros: Worked as it should with 16 16 16 36 3600

Cons: Nothing

Overall Review: A bit pricey but considering the timings, clock, and price i’d say its one of the better RAM sticks you can find
