G.Skill kicks things up a notch with its new DDR4-4700MHz Trident Z RGB Memory Kit! These dual-channel 16GB (2x 8GB) kits run at a blazing fast 4700MHz, they use CL19-19-19-39 timings and require 1.45V. The memory is based on cherry-picked Samsung DDR4 B-die ICs and will start shipping in Q2 2018. Pricing is unknown, but expect it to be very pricey. The 4266MHz variant of the 16GB Trident Z RGB kit currently ships for $329.99.
G.SKILL International Enterprise Co., Ltd., the world’s leading manufacturer of extreme performance memory and gaming peripherals, is thrilled to announce the world’s fastest Trident Z RGB memory kit at an extreme speed of DDR4-4700MHz CL19-19-19-39 1.45V 16GB (2x8GB). Not only is this kit the first retail DDR4 memory kit to reach DDR4-4700MHz, it’s also the first RGB-enabled kit to reach this extremely high level of frequency speed. This ultimate memory kit is achieved with highly-screened, high-performance Samsung DDR4 B-die ICs and validated on the MSI Z370I GAMING PRO CARBON AC motherboard and Intel® Core™ i7-8700K processor.
Reaching the World’s Fastest Memory Frequency with RGB
Ever since the first release announcement of the G.SKILL Trident Z RGB series at the end of 2016, DDR4-4266MHz had reigned as the highest frequency speed for an RGB memory kit. Over the past year, the G.SKILL R&D team has been dedicated to break through this technology bottleneck and aimed to provide an even higher speed RGB memory to PC enthusiasts. Today, all the hard work is finally paying off. G.SKILL successfully developed the world’s fastest RGB memory kit at a blistering DDR4-4700MHz, while maintaining ultra-low timings at CL19-19-19-39.
