Trident Z5 RGB
G.SKILL £400
Overkill kit for high-end systems
1 G.Skill rarely makes a misstep when it comes to high-performance memory. The company consistently delivers fast kits that end up on the shortlists of gamers, enthusiasts, and us. Its DDR5 offerings are no different, and this Trident Z5 DDR5-6000 with its 36-36-36 timings really hits the sweet spot for high frequency and tight timings.
The kit is available in both black and silver finishes. Its futuristic look and RGB implementation look fantastic with its lovely diffused light bar along the top of the shroud. Some eyeball-scalding individual LEDs can be a bit over the top, but actually that’s not the case here. The price of this kit has come down a long way from its steep launch price. In fact it doesn’t cost all that much more than a decent 5,200MHz kit, and with its extra speed and tighter timings, it’s an easy recommendation. You get great performance, looks and, surprisingly, actually now value for money. It’s widely available too! What a world.
VERDICT
High speed and tight timings
Eye catching design
Consistently falling price
SPECS SPEED: 6000MHZ / TIMING: 36-36-36-76 / CAS LATENCY: 36 / VOLTAGE: 1.3V / DIMMS: 2X 16GB
If you’re on the hunt for the best DDR5 RAM to pair with your shiny new Intel 12th gen system, you’ve come to the right place. We’ve tested many DDR5 memory kits over the last few months ourselves and we’ve picked out the top kits, at different price points, to suit systems at different performance levels.
