Initial Setup

The black and silver colors on the Predator Apollo RGB make the kit combine nicely with with the other system components.

The RGB lighting is very bright, with good diffusion and effects. The Predator Apollo RGB 3600 MHz kit is compatible with several major motherboard RGB software controls, including those from ASUS, ASRock, Gigabyte, and MSI.

Thaiphoon shows that the Apollo kit is using Samsung B-die ICs, and although it claims an 8-layer PCB, I have confirmed that it has 10 layers.
