Don't miss our review!
We appreciate the trust and the transfer of the product for its analysis to the G.Skill team:

G.Skill Trident Z DDR4 Unboxing and Design
G.Skill presents the G.Skill Trident Z DDR4 in a cardboard box with small dimensions that on its cover we see an image of the product and the version that we have in hand. In our case we have the beautiful white and silver that it dresses so well with most motherboards on the market.
Already on the back we have a brief description and the main characteristics: model, speed, voltage and latency of the memories on the sticker.
Inside we find a plastic blister that contains the kit F4-3200C15Q-32GTZSW, which is made up of four DDR4 modules of 8GB each, making a total of 32GB at 3200 Mhz and latency CL 15-15-15-35 2N a voltage of 1.35V. They are fully compatible with the XMP 2.0 profile and are compatible with the Intel Haswell-E (LGA 2011-3) and Skylake Z170 (LGA 1151) platforms.
Unlike the Trident Z they are already 100% compatible with the X99 platform and there is a wide variety of colors. What do we have available? Black / Silver, Black / Silver Black / White, Black / Yellow and Black / Orange. We sincerely believe that the version we have received is the most beautiful alongside the original red / silver. Currently packs up to 3600 MHz and a world record of 5.2 GHz has been achieved.
The memories have a high profile design, since it incorporates a heatsink quite high enough: 4.4cm. So be careful when purchasing a high performance heatsink, because the best option will be to mount a liquid cooling system. You can get an idea, with these images where it is mounted on an MSI X99A Xpower Gaming Titanium.
