G.Skill Trident Z Royal 16 GB (2x8GB DDR4-3600)

The G.Skill Trident Z Royal 16 GB arrives as 2 modules of 8GB each with 16GB of DDR4 on board. It is rated at 3600 MT/s with a CAS latency of 17, working out to a true latency of about 9.4ns. Operating voltage sits at 1.35V. Once memory clears 3600 MT/s, frequency gains taper off, so the 16GB on offer here is the spec that counts for modern AAA titles.

As a high-end DDR4 kit, it slots naturally into older AM4 and LGA1700 boards that top out at DDR4. At $129.00 it sits in the high-end memory kit bracket. PlanMyPC's builder flags compatibility problems automatically and tracks the latest memory kit deals from multiple stores.
