G.SKILL Announces Trident Z5 Neo & Flare X5 Series DDR5 Memory, Designed for AMD Ryzen 7000 Series Processors

G.SKILL International Enterprise Co., Ltd., the world's leading brand of performance overclock memory and PC components, is excited to announce two new DDR5 memory series, the Trident Z5 Neo and Flare X5 series, designed for the new AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors and 600 series motherboards. The Trident Z5 Neo family offerings include RGB (Trident Z5 Neo RGB) and non-RGB (Trident Z5 Neo) variants. Programmed with AMD EXPO technology and created with hand-screened memory ICs, the Trident Z5 Neo and Flare X5 series allow PC enthusiasts, gamers, and overclockers to experience the performance of the new AMD AM5 platform.

Designed for DDR5 memory-enabled AMD Ryzen 7000 Series desktop processors, the Trident Z5 Neo and Flare X5 series are pre-programmed with the latest AMD EXPO (EXtended Profiles for Overclocking) memory profiles, which allow users to easily overclock the memory kits. By simply enabling the AMD EXPO profile in the BIOS with a compatible motherboard and processor, users can unleash overclocked memory speeds on AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors.
"We are thrilled to partner with G.SKILL to bring AMD EXPO technology to enthusiasts, gamers, and overclockers worldwide," said David McAfee, Corporate Vice President and General Manager, Client Channel Business Unit, AMD. "AMD EXPO technology gives users piece of mind when selecting memory, unlocking improved memory performance with the click of a button."

Bearing the flagship Trident family name, the new Trident Z5 Neo and Trident Z5 Neo RGB series are purpose built for overclock performance on the latest platform with AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors. The heatspreader design retains the iconic powder-coated matte black and paired with a premium black brushed aluminium inset, which color-matches with a majority of motherboard color schemes. Staying true to the Neo design, CNC highlight strips along the flanks give the heatspreader design an additional metallic sheen.
Flare X5 - DDR5 for AM5
Available in a matte black finish, the Flare X5 series DDR5 memory is the successor of the Flare X series DDR4 memory. Built with hand-screened IC chips tested for quality and performance, the Flare X5 is designed and optimized for the new DDR5-enabled AM5 platform. Additionally, the 33 mm low-profile height of the Flare X5 also makes this an excellent choice for compact builds or builds with large CPU coolers that don't have clearance height for taller memory modules.


Specifications & Availability
The Trident Z5 Neo, Trident Z5 Neo RGB, and Flare X5 series DDR5 memory kits will be available in September 2022 via G.SKILL worldwide distribution partners. Please refer to the table below for a list of specifications.

Better sub timings on the Corsair 6000MT/s CL30 kit actually.

The Flare X5 got the same minimalistic design as the Ripjaws S5. :love: Love 'em.

Hope there will also be a white version.

Currently I can buy 32GB of Trident Z5 DDR5 6000 CL40-40-40-96 for $589 in my country. This is an even lower spec than shown in the list. I can buy 32GB of Trident Z Neo DDR4 3600 CL16-19-19-39 for $285. If the worst DDR5 spec costs more than double the good spec DDR4, then how fat will the premium be on the desirable DDR5 kits with CL30 timings? This is seriously putting me off considering AM5.

There was never a case that in a new platform with a next-gen RAM tech it was a good value proposition vs the outgoing tech.

your country is just putting a premium on DDR5, F5-6000J4040F16GX2/F5-6000U4040F16GX2 cost between 240-320e in Europe
