G.SKILL is excited to announce new high-performance, low-latency memory kits at DDR4-4000 CL16 32GB (16GBx2) and DDR4-4400 CL16 16GB (8GBx2). Both kits are already available on some G.SKILL authorized... G.SKILL Releases New Low-Latency DDR4-4000 CL16 and DDR4-4400 CL16 Memory Kits
I wonder what the difference would be between this new kit and the existing Royal at DDR4-4266MHz 32GB (2x16GB) Royal: DDR4-4266 CL17-18-18-38 1.50V New kit: DDR4-4000 CL16-19-19-39 1.40V (voltage in screenshot) Slightly lower voltage, but timings are mix of up and down compared to the royal kit.
These should useful when zen3 arrives and i will probably get a new kit for the 5800x. Zen2 is basically stuck at 3600.
thats my plan, im still running on an fx8350 lol bought my first component Monday to start the new build lol.

Wonder if the 32GB 16-19-19-39 4000MHz kit would be any better than the 32Gb 19-19-19-39 kit I am running at 16-16-16-34?
https://notkyon.moe/ram-latency.htm This whole high hz ram is mostly bullshit because the timings also get high. 4000 cl 18 is no better than 2000 cl 9. It's the timings /hz that matter. On a sidenote ddr4 3200 cl 14 is actually a bit faster then ddr4 4000 cl 18 . There is also a thread somewhere on guru3d that tests the impact of different timings and subtimings on performance.

The G.Skill site has 4000mhz C15 memory! https://www.gskill.com/product/165/...VDDR4-4000MHz-CL15-16-16-36-1.50V32GB-(4x8GB)
That's 4 x 8 not 2 x 16 - big difference! For a second I was getting ready to break out my wallet ;-)
I wish it was easier to find a good 2x 16gb or 2x 32gb (for 5xx AMD chipset) stick of RAM at a decent speed, too. Admittedly, it's a very niche market. Yeah, it never fails with how many people don't understand / comprehend the whole "latency VS Mhz speeds" trade-off. Manufacturers continue to make a killing on high latency high Mhz modules though.
I didn't realise Ryzen prefers 2 I thought 4 was faster on Intel. It wasn't hard to get 4 x 8gb 3600 CL17 working in my Z390. If I had those G.Skill, I'd probably try to run 3733 CL14. These things are going to be way too expensive for me to justify an "upgrade"
