G.Skill announces a new 32GB (4x8GB) Trident Z RGB DDR4 memory kit that achieves a frequency of 4266MHz with CL17-18-18-38 timings. These modules run at 1.45V.

Additionally, G.Skill also paperlaunches 16GB (2x8GB) and 32GB (4x8GB) kits that run at 4133MHz with CL17-17-17-37 timings at 1.4V, as well as 4000MHz kits in 16GB (2x8GB) and 32GB (4x8GB) SKUs with CL17-17-17-37 timings at 1.35V.

Availability is slated for January 2018, pricing is unknown.
G.SKILL International Enterprise Co., Ltd., the world’s leading manufacturer of extreme performance memory and gaming peripherals, is thrilled to announce new ultra-low latency additions to the Trident Z RGB series memory kits, starting from DDR4-4000MHz CL17-17-17-37 up to DDR4-4266MHz CL17-18-18-38 32GB (4x8GB). This is the first time in tech history that DDR4 memory kits above DDR4-4000MHz speed is available at the low CL17 timing, and with lower timings, memory kits can utilize high frequency to its fullest potential with improved memory performance. To achieve the ultra-low latency of CL17, these new memory kits are made with rigorously hand-binned, high-performance Samsung B-die DDR4 IC components.

World’s First DDR4-4266MHz Kit with CL17 Timing

As the leading manufacturer of extreme performance memory, G.SKILL is always improving and reaching higher levels of performance than ever before. The fastest selection from the new Trident Z RGB lineup is available at DDR4-4266MHz CL17-18-18-38 32GB (4x8GB) at 1.45V. The following screenshot shows this new memory kit running on the ASUS ROG MAXIMUS X HERO motherboard with the Intel® Core™ i7-8700K processor.

Ultra-Efficient 17-17-17 CAS Latency
Following the DDR4-4266MHz kit, are memory kits running at DDR4-4000MHz and DDR4-4133MHz in both 16GB (2x8GB) and 32GB (4x8GB) configurations, all at an ultra-efficient CL17-17-17-37 timing. Below is a screenshot of Trident Z RGB running at DDR4-4133MHz CL17-17-17-37 32GB (4x8GB) on the ASUS ROG MAXIMUS X HERO motherboard with the Intel® Core™ i7-8700K processor.
