G.SKILL unveils ultra-fast DDR4-4266MHz 32GB (4x8GB) Trident Z RGB memory kit

When you build a PC, you don't necessarily need the best and fastest. After all, most consumers have a specific budget with which to work. You don't want to blow your money on a top-of-the-line CPU and then buy no-name RAM or a flaky power supply. In other words, it is smart to balance things out.

But OK, if you do have a lot of money to spend, and you want the absolute best, I have some interesting news for you. Today, G.SKILL announces the world's fastest DDR4 32GB (4x8GB) RAM kit. Just how fast? An insane 4266MHz. Designed with special Samsung B-die DDR4 ICs, this RAM is made to work with the latest 8th Gen Intel Core processors. With that said, compatibility will likely vary from motherboard to motherboard, so keep that in mind when purchasing -- if you can even afford this kit.

"Just one week after the launch of the 8th Gen Intel Core processors and Z370 chipset motherboards, G.SKILL further fine-tuned the high-end RGB memory kits to reach even higher levels of overclocking speeds. Ever since the launch of Trident Z RGB almost a year ago, the largest capacity at DDR4-4266MHz was 2x8GB," says G.SKILL.

The famed RAM-maker further explains, "In combination with the ASUS OptiMem technology, which complements the T-Toplogy layout that uses equalized trace lengths, four-DIMM memory configurations have improved stability and increased frequency headroom. With the availability of this new optimization, G.SKILL is doubling the Trident Z RGB kit capacity to operate at DDR4-4266MHz CL19-23-23-43 32GB (4x8GB) at 1.4V."

As you can see in the image above (click to enlarge), the DDR4 RAM is totally stable at 4266MHz when used with an ASUS ROG Maximum X Hero and Core i5 8600K. If you are looking to build a new PC and want to be sure that this new G.SKILL kit will be compatible, you should definitely target those two components.

Unfortunately, you cannot buy this G.SKILL DDR4-4266MHz 32GB (4x8GB) Trident Z RGB memory kit today. Hell, you can't get it next month either. Actually, you must wait until an undisclosed date in December 2017 -- maybe Santa Claus will put it under your tree. Pricing is an unknown as well, but you should expect to pay big.
