#g.skill trident z memory kit

Taiwanese computer hardware manufacturer G.SKILL has recently announced a new memory kit -- The Trident Z DDR4-4600MHz Extreme Performance. The new Trident Z kits were made specifically to run a dual-channel memory configuration on Intel's latest X299 socket. G.SKILL has also provided stress tests to showcase the Trident Z's speed. This memory kit is one of, if not, the first to have a speed of 4600MHz. So I went ahead and bought an 8GB G.Skill Ripjaws X 2133Mhz RAM kit (F3-17000CL9D-8GBXM) which we will be reviewing in this post. It's actually more of an issue with the cooler than the memory module, and unless you often change RAM kits, we don’t think it’s going to be that much of a problem. Performance and Benchmark If you guys read our review of the A10-7850K, you’ve probably noticed that we’ve used this memory kit (running at 2133Mhz) on all of the benchmark tests that we’ve conducted on the processor. Conclusion Other than the possible clearance issue due to its 40mm-tall heat spreader, we didn’t have any other gripe about the G.Skill Ripjaws X memory modules.
