Packaging Description:

The kit from G.SKill is delivered in a cardboard box with the usual color code in the spirit of the brand. One of the two grey bars can be seen on the front of the box thanks to the cut-out. We can see that they are enclosed and protected in a transparent plastic protection. On the back of the box is also a label that informs the future buyer of the characteristics of his memory kit. Two cut-outs, at the level of the labels, allow to have the confirmation of this information. Once the box is opened, we find our two modules perfectly protected in a transparent plastic shell. This “Trident Z5” series arrived with the arrival of the DDR5 memory kits.

The Trident Z5 kit is available in either gray or black. In addition, you will have the choice to choose a version with or without RGB backlighting. Our sample of the day is grey and has RGB backlighting.

There are three different versions at the moment with Hynix A-die chips in 6800, 7200 and 7600 MT/s. The Trident Z5 kit is available in either gray or black. In addition, you will have the choice to choose a version with or without RGB backlighting.

Features and cooling:

Our kit is clocked at 6800 MT/s, has timings of 34-45-108 and requires a voltage of 1.40 volt to operate. It is composed of two 16 GB strips for a total of 32 GB. We are here on a mix between grey and black.

The heatspreaders are made of aluminum. They are responsible for dissipating the heat generated by the eight-layer PCB and the memory chips. If you have already had a G.SKill Trident kit in your hands, you will quickly notice that G.KSill has kept the same spirit in the design of the heat sink.

On both sides, we find the name of the series. A label includes some of the characteristics of our kit. Regarding the price, this kit is currently available for 489.95 euros at LDLC. It is possible to find it cheaper elsewhere but the current difficulty is to find it in stock. On the upper part, we find the RGB backlight with the inscription G.Skill. To finish this presentation, you should know that the kit is XMP 3.0(Extreme Memory Profile) compatible. So do not forget to activate the profile directly via the bios of our motherboards.
