G.SKILL F4-3200C16D-16GTZR Trident Z RGB Series 16 GB (8 GB x 2) DDR4 3200 MHz PC4-25600 CL16 Dual Channel Memory Kit - Black with full length RGB LED light bar

I’ve had these sticks in my pc for nearly 5 years now and recently got another 2 for a upgrade and can definitely say they are some of the best looking ram sticks. Personally I didn’t manage to control the rgb but even on its default cycle it’s really mesmerising in your build.Performance has always been good in my pc and would recommend to anyone looking for something to spice up your build.

These things look quite nice, as you might expect, with a reasonably high RGB LED density under the light diffuser, two-tone heat spreaders and pleasing design. The memory itself is also high perfoamance, running at 3200MHZ with tight latency timings. Note that you will have to go in to your motherboard settings and manually set up the memory speed, either directly or through the XMP profile.Please note, however, that I run a Ryzen system - I wasn't aware of this before I made this purchase and had to do a lot of troubleshooting, but Ryzen systems (particularly 1st gen) do not play nice with high speed memory. After much tweaking and overvolting, mine runs stable but only at 3066Mhz.I am not factoring this in to my review score, as this was a lack of research and user error on my part - but if you are buying this for a Ryzen system, consider saving money and buying the 3000Mhz kit instead. Most ryzen systems flake out above a memory frequency of 2988Mhz or so, so buying a 3200Mhz set of memory is likely to not work properly at its rated speeds unless they are made specifically for Ryzen - which these are not.The silicon lottery does factor in to this, so you might be able to get high speed memory to work fine for you, but I could not.

Does exactly what it says on the tin. XMP profile was enabled by default and lighting synced up perfectly with my ASUS motherboard.

Chose these to upgrade from old vengeance ram. These have delivered all round and offered great stability in AM4.RGB lighting is a nice touch and very subtle.If your looking for quick CL18 3600mhz DDR4 ram this is it!

Man these are pretty but the RGB keeps resetting way too often. Also it doesn't "remember" so if you hibernate your pc it will reset to rainbow puke until you run the application. Wish there was some sort of "memory" in this memory.

I got this kit (F4-3200C16D-16GTZR) to go with my Ryzen 1700, in my MSI x370 Gaming Plus board, despite the RAM not being on the QVL for the board, similar sets from G.Skill were. The RAM works with XMP perfectly. Simply slotted in to the board, fired up into the BIOS changed XMP setting and done, 3200mhz. Really simple to do if you know what you're doing in system BIOS. The RGB is nice with 5 addressable lights per stick. The software uses ASUS Aora software so easily ties in for those of you with an ASUS board. I saw a 300 point boost in Cinebench which is nothing to be sniffled at. Definitely will be adding another set come payday.The only downside for me, was not even a week after this kit dropped £15.

Runs amazingly, looks perfect.The lights don't sync on my pc but I can look past it as they run perfectly
