G.SKILL Announces New DDR4-4600 MHz Extreme Performance Trident Z Memory Kit
G.SKILL International Enterprise Co., Ltd., the world's leading manufacturer of extreme performance memory and gaming peripherals, is excited to announce a new extreme speed DDR4 memory kits at DDR4-4600MHz CL19! Built with hand-selected, high-quality Samsung B-die IC components, this new addition to the flagship Trident Z series will be available in two color variations: silver aluminum body with white accent bar and black aluminum body with black accent bar.
Previously, the speed of DDR4-4600MHz was only achievable under extreme overclocking with liquid nitrogen cooling. Now, designed for extreme speed dual-channel memory operation on the latest Intel X299 high-end desktop platform, G.SKILL is once again raising the limits on DDR4 memory speed to DDR4-4600MHz CL19-23-23-43 at 1.5V, with a total capacity of 16GB (8GBx2). The following stress test screenshot shows the new memory kit in action, validated with an Intel Kaby Lake-X Core i7-7740X processor on the new ASRock X299 OC Formula motherboard:

Well, you know, the usual. But to be fairly honest, my number 1 curiosity is for gaming performance increase, especially on 2K or higher resolutions, then, archiving tasks, copying tasks, etc. Synthetic benches, not that much, maybe just some 3D Mark runs.
I prefer the real life hands on usage to be honest.
And yes, I need this mostly for my piece of mind relaxation, that those very high speeds are not at all worth it over the 3600 or even 3200Mhz modules. :)
