Review on πŸ’ͺ G.Skill Trident Z NEO Series 32GB (2 x 16GB) 288-Pin SDRAM DDR4 4000 CL18-22-22-42 1.40V Dual Channel Desktop Memory - F4-4000C18D-32GTZN by Vladimir Castillo

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great with standard XMP (5950x, B550 AORUS Master)

EDIT: currently works on 3800/16-16-20-22-38 (because I had to install trdcwr and trcdrd differently), compared to stock 4000 /18-22-22-42 and my Cinebench R20 and MEMbench scores improved. Saved 50 seconds in MEMbench (in DRAM Calc, Bench default settings) and increased my Cinebench score by another 700 points. I just bought it for my new system and it works great with the default XMP profile. Tomorrow I'll see if I can run it on 3866 CL16-16-16-32 (FCLK on 1933) but if not I'm fine with the default XMP settings. So far not a single problem. The LEDs aren't very bright or annoying like other people have said, and it's EASY to turn them off unless you know absolutely nothing about your system's capabilities (most good motherboard BIOS menus, for example, will let you change the control system-wide RGB lighting). ). and even turn EVERYTHING off). People who mention system instability may have received fakes or defects, or their system may not be properly compatible. 4000MHz RAM is pretty fast, many systems literally can't run it at such a high frequency. Two builds ago I had 4133MHz RAM and had to lower its frequency a bit to get the system to work at all. Building a PC is available to everyone, but playing with bizarre details may require special attention and knowledge.
