G.Skill expands its Trident Z Royal family with some new members. The company is now offering 8GB and 16GB modules in dual-channel kits with frequencies of 4000MHz, 4133MHz, 4266MHz, and 4400MHz. All these variants have CL17-18-18-38 timings. The voltage varies from 1.4V for the 4000MHz model to 1.5V for the 4266MHz and 4400MHz editions. Availability is expected in Q3 2020.
G.SKILL International Enterprise Co., Ltd., the world's leading manufacturer of extreme performance memory and gaming peripherals, is releasing new extreme-speed DDR4 memory kits that push 16GB and 8GB modules up to DDR4-4400 with a low latency of CL17-18-18-38 across the board, under the Trident Z Royal family. Upgrading specifications across all three fronts of memory frequency speed, module capacity, and low memory latency, these specifications are engineered with Samsung B-die ICs and designed for the latest Intel Z490 platform to achieve higher performance for gaming and content creation.
The High-Speed, Low-Latency Challenge with 16GBx2
As 32GB memory total capacity becomes the standard for gaming PC and performance PC builds, G.SKILL recognizes the importance of extreme performance 16GBx2 memory kit configurations. Rising to the challenge, G.SKILL has created the DDR4-4400 CL17-18-18-38 memory kit with 32GB (16GBx2) capacity under the Trident Z Royal family.
Achieving CL17 Low-Latency with DDR4-4400 8GBx2
At the same time, G.SKILL is also lowering the memory latency of 16GB (8GBx2) kits at DDR4-4400 to CL17-18-18-38. As seen in the screenshot below, the memory kit is validated on the ASUS ROG MAXIMUS XII FORMULA motherboard, based on the Intel Z490 chipset, with the Intel® Core™ i9-10900K processor.
