Trident Z Neo Series DDR4 RAM (XMP) 32GB (2x16GB) Up to 3600MT/s* CL16-19-19-39 1.35V Intel AMD Desktop Computer Memory U-DIMM (F4-3600C16D-32GTZNC)

Main Review: I am new to PC Build; so I did a lot of research to figure out everything needed to build a high speed gaming/work PC. Memory (RAM) happens to be one of the key components for any PC build and with AMD Ryzen 3rd Gen CPUs(ranging from 3700X - 3900X) I found out that they are super picky with RAM to get the desired optimal performance. I purchased this G.Skill Trident Z Neo(F4-3600C16D-32GTZNC) because it is specifically optimized for X570 motherboards when paired with Ryzen 3000 processors. (source:G.SKILL website). I paired it with a MSI MAG X570 Tomahawk motherboard and AMD Ryzen 9 3900X processor and am pretty happy with the performance; the speeds are incredible. Specifications: Your motherboard dictates the RAM compatibility and each motherboard manufacturer has a QVL(Qualified Vendor List) which is available either on their website / documentation; so, please check that out for compatibility before deciding. These RAM modules are rated at 3600 MHz; PC4-28800, 288 pins; CL=16 latency; 1.34v with 16-19-19-39. The height of the memory slot is 44mm (1.73 in) for those wondering if it will fit in your case. The memory chip has a temp sensor embedded on it for tracking the temps in some motherboards and when running diagnostics. I have a MSI MAG X570 TOMAHAWK motherboard and this RAM is 100% compatible and I got 2 sticks of 16 GB each totaling 32 GB. RGB Colors: The default RGB colors on the RAM are very attractive and have an array of rainbow colors which are nice to look at and are not super gawdy as they have a matte look to them; and the lighting is software controllable if one wants to sync them across all the other RGB devices within the PC; and it needs a separate software (in my case it's MSI Dragon/Mystic Light) that need to be downloaded from the motherboard manufacturer website and it supports various motherboard manufacturers and other 3rd party softwares. Ram Speeds: When you first install any RAM on the motherboard they are designed to default to the lowest configured frequency which is 2200 MHz to prevent any damage to the hardware. One needs to go into the BIOS setup(press DEL key during boot) to change the memory profile to the XMP profile. The process may be slightly different with other motherboards but with MSI motherboards the option is right on the main page denoted as "A-XMP". I enabled this option and was able to obtain the published speeds of 3600 MHz without any problem. When I did this and booted my machine I noticed a sudden jolt of speed increase due to the frequency change from 2200 MHz to 3600 MHz. Overall, I highly recommend this memory to anyone that is using X570 Chipset with AMD Ryzen CPUs without any hesitation; as I felt that speed and performance are very superior when I used it with X570 chipset with Ryzen 3900X processor.

I love this RAM set. It looks incredible and performs beyond all expectations. I do a lot of gaming and 3D modeling, and my PC handles everything like an absolute beast now. I will also say that G.Skill is a fantastic company. I was using 4 of these RAM sticks for about 14 months, and out of nowhere my PC started acting funny- having random crashes and just being weird. So I ran a RAM test and found that 1 of my 4 sticks had gone bad. It happens. I then realized that G.Skill backs up their products with a lifetime warranty. So I went to the G.Skill website, filled out an RMA form, and within a week of sending the set with the bad one back, I got a replacement set. Incredible service. And now I’m back in business. By the way, RAM is now 4 times the price of when I built my PC 14 months ago, so thank god they truly put their money where their mouth is. I can’t recommend this RAM enough.

For a long time I was a believer in "16 GBs is enough RAM for the current day." Well, that is true to some extent but you will suffer shortcomings, as I found out. While my system was stable due to rigorous upkeep and meticulous planning in building and upgrading, I never realized how much of an improvement going from 16 GBs of RAM to 32 would make. Even with a 5600X I saw a remarkable uplift in performance, even though I had decent quality TridentZ RGB 16CL 16GB 3200 MHz RAM. Multitasking and alt-tabbing felt a lot smoother, and 1% lows were greatly improved in CPU-heavy games like Final Fantasy XIV. Stutters that come from loading into new zones or assets are virtually gone. If you are on AM4 still, and have recently upgraded to a 5700X3D or 5800X3D, you will absolutely want to consider it, and this kit in specific. TridentZ Neo kits are made specifically for those people who want to tinker and squeeze every last clock out of their components, and while I'm only a casual overclocker, I haven't found the need to do that with this kit. My Gigabyte X470 mobo automatically detected the kit and set the XMP profile without my intervention, and it's been smooth sailing since. The kit I got is dual-rank Hynix B-die for those who are interested in that. As for aesthetics, the RGB on G.Skill DIMMs is some of the most vibrant I've ever seen. Colors are deep and rich and the gradation is excellent for a diffuser of this size. The heat spreader is two-tone with black and powder silver resembling anodized aluminum. The silver actually reflects the other lights in my rig in a soft, pleasing way. The heat fins are rather tall though so be aware of that if you've got a giant air cooler in your build. Overall I would say that this kit, which would have been $200 a couple of years ago, is absolutely worth the price it's at currently for any AM4 holdouts looking for a cheap but effective upgrade. I wouldn't have considered 32GBs a necessity in the past, but the landscape of games is changing and few people only run one program while gaming anymore. Having the extra overhead does not hurt at all, the speed of this kit will ensure your X3D chip can stretch its legs, and can even give new life to older Zen 3 processors that might be starting to feel a bit lethargic with their age. So, is 16 GBs of RAM enough in 2024? Yes, but you can do much better for not much more. For AM4 users, DDR4 is entering its dirt cheap era, and premium RAM can be had for a portion of a comparable DDR5 kit. There's no reason not to upgrade, as it is one of the cheapest upgrades you can make if you're still running 16 GBs or less on Windows 11.

I am gradually upgrading my gaming PC, and these memory modules are part of that multi step process. It was difficult for me to choose this as this was not specifically listed in the supported memory of my motherboard. But as an enthusiast builder, I gave it a try, and it works. My setup is: - Ryzen 9 3900X - 32GB (2X 16GB) G.Skill Trident Z Neo Series 3600MHz C 16-19-19-39 - MSI B450I Gaming Plus AC - MSI Geforce RTX 2080 Ventus OC - No overclock, cpu and memory running at rated speeds with XMP enabled I went from a Vengeance LPX 3200Hz memory module to this GSkill 3600Hz as Ryzen CPUs love faster memories. At first I tried different memory settings, speed, timings, all of them causing crashes. What eventually worked for me is just run in default settings with XMP Profile 1 enabled, and it detected the timings perfectly running at the rated speed of 3600MHz. I will not bore you with benchmarks and technical details, there are lots of those information out there. But I have a real life usage example that is evidence of a jump in memory speed. I usually have 2 windows of Chrome browser that has 20 tabs each opened for work. When I load all of these tabs at the same time on 2 windows, it is very snappy than before. We know how Chrome browser is a memory hog, but these memory modules can handle loading 40 tabs (2 windows) in a snap. So far, I am very impressed with these memory modules. Installation and configuration was almost auto in the BIOS, and it just works fine. I am planning on getting a B550 or X570 motherboard later on to get a little more headroom for overcloking. And, yeah, the RGB light is pretty.

The G.SKILL Trident Z Neo is excellent quality RAM. The performance is solid, and it handled gaming and multitasking easily. Installation was quick, and I had no issues getting it recognized in my system. The RGB lighting on this set is one of the highlights. It’s bright without being too flashy, and the colors blend smoothly. It definitely adds a premium look to any build, especially if you’re going for a clean or colorful setup. Value-wise, it’s hard to complain because you’re getting high performance and great aesthetics. Unfortunately, it turned out this wasn’t the right type for my motherboard (my mistake for not checking). If it fits your setup, it’s a fantastic choice.

While this RAM is on the higher end of the market, it is fantastic quality. After installing in an MSI MPG X570, enabling XMP profile made using this RAM absolutely turn key! It just works and at the rated speed. I've seen so many forums and reviews where people buy other RAM for their AMD products that just can't get close to the rated speed, and as such are labeled as Intel compatible RAM. I haven't played around too much with OC'ing this RAM, but I can say that I haven't hit 3800MHz; at least not with any respectable amount of stability. As for aesthetics, I know some people are starting to grow weary of excessive RGB in their build. My build only has this, a small strip on the back of the mobo, and the graphics card for RGB lighting with the rest of the inside of the case being black (I replaced the CPU cooler with an all black Cooler Master), and I absolutely love the aesthetic of it. Don't judge me on the underwhelming graphics card in this setup; waiting for the 3080's to become available. As far as installation goes, the heat spreader design is a bit odd and I found myself being a little wary of how to handle the RAM during install, afraid I might He-Man the heat spreader right off (dated reference; I'm old), but it went into the slots easily enough.

Works great, worth the price when I bought it in 2024, the only issue I had is that when I bought it one of the sticks makes a weird sound whenever changing colors, just never bothered to get it replaced.

This G.SKILL Trident Z Neo 32GB kit is a strong choice for a DDR4 gaming, workstation, or enthusiast desktop build. The 2x16GB capacity is a good balance for modern systems, and DDR4-3600 CL16 is a very useful performance point, especially for compatible AMD Ryzen setups. The modules also look good without feeling cheap or generic. As always with performance memory, motherboard and CPU compatibility matter, and you may need to enable XMP/DOCP in BIOS to get the rated speed. Once configured properly, this is a fast and capable DDR4 kit. I was very satisfied with it and would use it again in a high-quality DDR4 build.

Got two sets of this RAM to make 64GB because it was cheaper than buying a single 64GB kit of G.Skill. Installed in a computer running a 5900X and a 2070, plenty of headroom for tasks like Photoshop, Vegas Pro and Chrome. Shouldn't need an upgrade for a long time.

Achats de deux barettes, elles fonctionnent parfaitement. Super

RAM is running quite well as expected with XMP 2.0. (Image attached for full config with these RAMs) Thanks to the seller "PC Parts and Solutions" for checking the compatibility of my system's motherboard with this RAM before shipping. Note: Be aware of seller like "BackXpace" who sent wrong cheap product twice and wasted almost 20 days. Then finally got delivered with in 2 days by "PC Parts and Solutions" who have good practice as calling customer and confirm if the RAM is compatible with there motherboards.
