A Closer Look

The Neo Forza Mars sticks feature a cleanly cut profile with a sharp, blade-like RGB diffuser.


The memory sticks have a two-part stamped aluminium heat spreader that is available in either gray or red.


The two-tone heat spreader has an excellent brushed finish and "Neo Forza" is cut into the heat spreader at the top center of each stick.


The specifications are a 3600 MHz XMP profile at 18-19-19-39 timings and 1.35 V, ideal for a Ryzen-based system. "Neo Forza" is featured in white in the middle on both sides of the stick.


This Neo Forza Mars 3600 MHz is single-sided and utilizes Hynix CJR ICs on an 8-layer PCB.


I like to weigh a stick from each kit I get as the difference in mass can be pretty drastic between kits. Mass is not the best indicator of cooling efficiency because material can matter, and of course, heat dissipation is reliant on surface area, not volume or mass. That said, it is still interesting to compare.

The Neo Forza Mars comes in at 59.04 g on my scale. For height, the Neo Forza Mars 3600 MHz comes in at 49.51 mm with my calipers, just inside the 45–50 mm average.
