All that techno-babble about increasing performance, and yet they aren't offering anything above 3600.... wth ?

Well, at least the prices are reasonable, so there's that

Hopefully they set aside some $$ for developing some real high speed DDR 5 & 6 kits, so they can be ready when the time comes for launches of boards that can use it .....

With timings like those I suspect they're using Hynix chips

Remember that this is some random PRC company that bought the Lexar brand name.

And pretty bad Hynix chips at that if it's Hynix and not something from some PRC chip maker.
Not worth the asking price regardless.

Mmmm same timings as my GSkill TridentZ RGB kit which uses Hynix chips damn things are hopeless at trying to tighten any of the timings

Weird, my Patriot Vipers are ok, obviously no CL14 candidates, but CL16 works just fine and they were sold as CL17.

i dont like the rise of tall heat spreaders in modern memory, especially with increased CPU power requirements people are buying large heat sinks a lot these days.

Yeah, too tall. And the non-RGB one should be using the space were the RGB elements were for more heatsink surface area instead of what just looks like blacked out plastic.

my TridenZ kit were already running at CL16-18-18 so nothing left in the tank so to speak even when using dram calc settings they just don't want to budge from factory settings
