---This kit is excellent. I was able to clock this kit up to 4133 18-18-18-38 @ 1.52V on an AsRock Z390 Phantom gaming ITX/AC motherboard with a 9900k, which is absolutely fantastic for a dual rank memory configuration. I didn't like the required voltage to hit that frequency, so I settled for 3600 14-14-14-30 @ 1.42V with extremely tightened secondary and tertiary timings which gives me incredible performance and is very impressive as well. From my experience, it can be difficult to get single rank kits into that performance bracket, never mind that this kit can do it at such (relatively) low voltage. Keep in mind, as with all things overclocking, there is going to be variance that depends on a number of factors, including IMC, motherboard, and the memory ICs ... More---This kit is excellent.

I think it is very possible that this kit is one of the best bins available in this configuration. Something to keep in mind, is that I would not recommend this kit to anyone that doesn't plan on manually tuning/overclocking. This kit is excellent for such endeavors, but if you're looking to get a kit that you can just set XMP on and let it run, much, much better value can be had. Realistically, XMP settings on memory kits are so loose to ensure compatibility, that they all might as well be the same, even though Samsung B Die ICs can run much, much tighter timings than just about everything else with little issue. If all you're after is XMP compatibility, then might as well get something less expensive with comparable timings, like a CJR Kit for nearly half the price. As for overclocking, I'm fairly well convinced you can't do any better.

Everything seemed fine for a few days of light use, but then I had a nice 24hr session and started noticing hiccups. My PC would randomly restart while gaming, and I also got a few BSODs while gaming/downloading games. My first thought went to the RAM after reading some of the various stop codes given from the BSODs, including 0x50 PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA, which is linked to defective RAM or drivers. I ruled out the drivers because I did a full PC reset and deleted everything out of frustration. Lol I absolutely refuse to turn off XMP, because I want what I paid for (3600MHz CL16). Instead of testing with XMP off, I swapped with a kit of 2400MHz Corsair Vengeance from my other PC.

I then tested by downloading a lot of games over about 3-4 hours (which had previously given me at least 2 BSODs in a short amount of time)... no BSOD or restarts with the Corsair. I will be returning these for a replacement, or possibly an "upgrade" to 4x8 TridentZ Neo 3600 (still SK Hynix) since Ryzen also seems to benefit from 4 DIMMs. Disappointed overall. I expected a little more stability, but can't expect much from an SK Hynix kit. The Samsung B-Die (model F4-3600C16D-32GTZR (no "C" at the end)) price is just not worth it for my use case, even though it is far more stable. I will just be enabling XMP and moving on. I've had enough headaches. My system specs: - 5800X (stock) - 3070 Gigabyte Gaming OC (stock) - Gigabyte X570 AORUS ELITE mobo - V750 CM SFX PSU - 1TB WD SN550 SSD - EK 280mm AIO - Lian Li O11-D Mini - 6 x eZDIY Moonlight fans - RAM = NOW PENDING ~

For Newer Intel users- Speed wise this is pretty much standard, there are a few slower choices out there and a bunch of faster that are supported with out manual overclocking, just set x.m.p. and your good to go. For AMD Users- Really check on your mb and cpu specs, your getting pretty close to your max specs before manual overclocking and may not be supported to be plug and play. Had a little bit of an issue seating the ram but once I got it in worked fine. Couldn't list it as a con as its most likely not the rams fault but the MBs but the RGB effects don't work in sleep mode, or when the system is off (mb rgb is still going when off). Been using corsair and kingstin memory for most of the past 20 years so first time going with G.Skill and really impressed with it ... MoreFor Newer Intel users- Speed wise this is pretty much standard, there are a few slower choices out there and a bunch of faster that are supported with out manual overclocking, just set x.m.p. and your good to go.

The deciding factor for these over the corsairs was the RGB (first rgb memory for me) these work and look great in the Asus MB, also heard that the corsair rgb lag with Asus rgb software. Out of the box, before setting up the Asus software these run a rainbow effect and look nice but its out of sync with the rest of the mobo, if you don't have an aRGB mb there is software from G.skill to give you more options, never needed it personally. If your looking for the best performance go with the Corsair Dominators if your looking for a great performance with great looks you can't go wrong with any of the TridentZ RGB series. I do plan on upgrading down the road, haven't decided if I'm buying another set of these to fill out the dims or go with a faster/larger GB set, but I am 100% sure I'll get another set of TridentZ.

So if anyone has a slightly more in depth knowledge, ignore this, because I'm essentially a guy who watched a few videos on how memory works with Ryzen and learned a couple things. These only have chips on one side of the PCB (with a foam pad on the other side) which makes this a single rank memory stick. These appear to be the best choice to use with Ryzen for how the channels work with Ryzen's infinity fabric. A single sided memory stick is always single rank (which think of as the least complicated wiring to the CPU). A dual sided memory stick can be single, dual, or quad ranked sticks. Unfortunately because of what density of chips are available at the moment, the largest affordable single sided chips are 8GB dimms, once you get to 16GB, you run into dual sided ... MoreSo if anyone has a slightly more in depth knowledge, ignore this, because I'm essentially a guy who watched a few videos on how memory works with Ryzen and learned a couple things.

Unfortunately because of what density of chips are available at the moment, the largest affordable single sided chips are 8GB dimms, once you get to 16GB, you run into dual sided which as mentioned before doesn't work quite as well with Ryzen typically. This is just a matter of density of the memory chips on the PCB of the memory available right now, it will improve with time. All that being said, these are not "Ryzen Optimized" memory, but from what I have heard, the majority of that is just that they are guaranteed single sided, single rank chips. There is probably something else on chip that makes it work a bit better for being able to just turn on XMP and run, but because Ryzen 1 memory compatability was so atrocious, they are all very low speed. When I upgrade to Ryzen 3 (Zen 2) this summer, rumor is that you will be able to run memory at much faster speeds, hence buying memory dimms with some decent head room. Considering Ryzen's performance is so strongly tied to memory speed, gotta maximize performance here!
This is great RAM from a great company. All there is to it. G.Skill uses Samsung B-Die chips in their manufacturing of RAM, which provides the best overclocking capability. You can probably expect to run this RAM around 400 MHz higher than it is rated, with fairly tight timings, no issues. Depending on the silicon lottery and skill of the user. This kit is not on my MOBO QVL, nor my CPU QVL, runs just fine. Furthermore, this RAM is only "certified" for Intel chips. Runs on my AMD CPU just fine. Even bumped up the CAS latency, no issue. I actually bought two of these kits for a total of 4x8 configuration. No issue at all. PS: The higher you go in frequency, and the tighter the timings, the more strain you will put on your CPU's integrated memory controller. I don't ... MoreThis is great RAM from a great company.

PS: The higher you go in frequency, and the tighter the timings, the more strain you will put on your CPU's integrated memory controller. I don't imagine it would be a problem at a speed like 3600 CL16, but it is possible that 4 sticks would refuse to boot or post, while 2 would be just fine. This is usually only an issue around 4000 MHz and can usually be alleviated with a better Motherboard. Just be warned that if you have a really old system, and need 32GB of RAM, 2 16GB sticks would probably be better.
I purchased this ram because it fit my needs: - It was on the list of MSI's supported ram for a MSI x570 Meg Ace board that purchased. - I felt it was very reasonably priced for the speed and timings if offered in comparison to other ram available at the time. - I wanted RGB and this one matched perfectly with my case's theme. - I've been very happy with the ram purchase. The packaging arrived factory sealed and in good condition. It appeared to have worked as advertised for base speeds and xmp profiles. Over the course of the first year I periodically experienced some OS or application crashes. I assumed at first these were early adoption issues and looked at my Bios and gpu drivers being the cause, but it then became apparent that the rare but also random crashes ... MoreI purchased this ram because it fit my needs: - It was on the list of MSI's supported ram for a MSI x570 Meg Ace board that purchased. - I felt it was very reasonably priced for the speed and timings if offered in comparison to other ram available at the time. - I wanted RGB and this one matched perfectly with my case's theme. - I've been very happy with the ram purchase.

Over the course of the first year I periodically experienced some OS or application crashes. I assumed at first these were early adoption issues and looked at my Bios and gpu drivers being the cause, but it then became apparent that the rare but also random crashes were most frequent under 80%+ ram loads. A memtest program confirmed faults when reading back data on 1 of the 2 sticks. I put in an RMA request with G.Skill. They issued a number and I mailed the kit of ram to G.Skill along with the RMA form Newegg receipt of purchase. The tracking showed they received the ram. Three days after they had received the ram, I checked my email and didn't see a follow-up, but then checked my physical mailbox and was surprised to see an padded envelope from G.Skill with an enclosed brand new, factory sealed, identical kit of ram as a replacement. The new ram has been installed and running issue free for several months now. I'm very satisfied. I would recommend G.Skill and will look to them for ram in future builds on account of how painless and quick they made the RMA experience.
The memory was on sale at time of purchase which swayed to me to quickly scoop it up. I've installed this in an MSI X370 system with Ryzen7 1800x. I have been able to reliably overclock to 2800Mhz, but have issues at 3000 and 3200. According to the G.Skill website they aren't strongly recommending much if any of their products for Ryzen support and had I spent more time looking this over I would have passed on these particular sticks. As for the RGB control software on a fresh Windows 10 install it was working great.....

As for the RGB control software on a fresh Windows 10 install it was working great..... However after installing some other MB and PSU control and doing the JAN Windows Meltdown security updates everything stopped working. It looks like it utilizes code base from ASUS developed software (that's why the memory can be controlled by ASUS Aura) but running anyone else's RGB control software may make it inoperable, or may (again according to what I've read) permanently disabled without flashing the RAM itself. There also seems to be some issue with X99 motherboards and their control if the SPD write functionality is disabled (too bad since that's the other machine I would put it in). And finally I've read in a few places that the Fall Creators Edition update may have also disabled this ability. I had issues with the installer itself after the JAN update of Windows 10, it complained about "AIO.sys(2) can't be found." Given all the variables involved I have decided not to try and troubleshoot a G.Skill conceptual and programming issue and wait to see if they can resolve it with an update. I recommend reading their forum PRIOR to buying this, especially if any of the following are true, 1) You aren't using an ASUS Aura enabled motherboard 2) You are using a Ryzen CPU 3) You are on Window 10 Fall Creators Update (latest patches as of 1-20-18) 4) You don't have hours to waste trying to debug someone else's poor work. Specifically this is the error I am getting, When I run the G.Skill app it says no g.skill ram detected and won't open. link to the forum post: https://www.gskill.us/forum/showthread.php?t=14257&page=3

It would randomly restart the machine, usually when idle but I also had it happen mid game. It didn't matter if the XMP was set for 3600 or if it was at 2933. Asrock had some issues early on (check reddit) with the B550 chipset so I chalked it up to that and went with the MSI B550. Had the same issues. I decided to wait for bios updates to get the ram situation (so I thought) fixed but after 4 bios revisions, no joy, I still got the random restarts when I put the ram back in. Fortunately I have some G.Skill 3200 (F4-3200C16D-16GTZB) that is rock solid and I have no issues whatsoever with it, so I am good to go. I am waaay past the window to RMA these but I did decide to wait, thinking an update would fix the issue, so that is on me.
F4-4000C16D-32GTZR Intel I9-9900K Gigabyte Z390 Gaming X I was unable to boot my PC up with these on default timings at 4000Mhz. No matter what I do - swap the sticks, use different memory slots, increase timings to weird 19-21-21-42, increase voltage to 1.45 - nothing helps. Each stick works alone perfectly in single channel mode in any memory slot, but as long as I add the second one - it fails. It doesn't matter if I insert them into slots A1/B1 or A2/B2 as recommended. I spent several hours to play with voltage and timings and gave up. I have no idea what is a problem - either MB or faulty SDRAM. MB supports up to 4266Mhz as per spec. However, I was able to boot it up at 3900Mhz with no problem. The system is stable, the timings/voltage are all default. But ... MoreF4-4000C16D-32GTZR Intel I9-9900K Gigabyte Z390 Gaming X I was unable to boot my PC up with these on default timings at 4000Mhz. No matter what I do - swap the sticks, use different memory slots, increase timings to weird 19-21-21-42, increase voltage to 1.45 - nothing helps. Each stick works alone perfectly in single channel mode in any memory slot, but as long as I add the second one - it fails.

The system is stable, the timings/voltage are all default. But benchmarks are poor - AIDA64 gives 52K read speed at best, 51K average. This is comparable to my old kit 3200C14D overclocked to 3866. MaxxMEM gives even worse results than the old kit. Decreasing timings to 16-16-16-37 doesn't get it any better. Decreasing CL to 15 gives boot failure again. I expected much more from this kit. Going to replace it with something more worthy...
I've always GSkill some people will say that they aren't what they used to be. I don't believe that I've been a gskill supporter 4 years like 2007/2008 but there's a few reasons why I still stick with him number one when you find an issue with one of their sticks they asked a single question. They just tell you here's the address here's the rma we will take care of it. There's no beating around the bush sure arguing or fighting or it's just simple Pleasant and I wish majority of customer service nowadays would act like that. I still have DDR3 first generation Ram 1600 MHz I think and I had to replace that twice and one was recent like a year ago 0 questions they said no problem they just want a proof of my receipt now that ram ungodly old but they still did it no ... MoreI've always GSkill some people will say that they aren't what they used to be.

I believe in that company because it believes in us the consumer to be honest that's what we need. Typically companies that make millions typically push us to the side because you no longer need us. They still care and they're here to stay
