G.Skill Unveils New Memory Kits For Intel's 11th Gen Rocket Lake Processors
It's not out of the norm for companies who manufacture RAM to upgrade their memory kits for the next-generation processor, AMD or Intel. Which precisely what G. Skills has done. The company has announced an all-new, high-speed memory kit for Intel's upcoming 11th Generation Rocket Lake CPUs, which will comply with the Z590 motherboards.
The all-new memory kits will fall in G. Skills Trident Z Royal, Trident Z RGB, and Ripjaws V product line. As mentioned earlier, these memory kits are high-speed. So if the latest and fastest hardware is your thing, then G. Skills' new memory lineup is definitely for you. The frequencies range from a jaw-dropping DDR4-4266 to DDR4-5333, with capacities available in 16GB (8x 8GB) up to 64GB (2x32GB).
Let's turn our attention to the fastest memory out of this lineup, DDR4-5333. Its timing is configured to 22-32-32-52. The 16GB variant alone requires an immense DRAM voltage of 1.6V. PC enthusiasts who value RAM capacity over frequency speeds and timing, G. Skill offers a DDR4-5066 32GB (2x 16GB) memory kit with restraints on timing.
Those just looking for a decent memory kit and not worried about record-breaking benchmark numbers, then set your sights on G. Skill's DDR4-4800 memory kit; it has much lower timing numbers at 17-19-19-39. Yet still, a decent memory kit that offers a balance between its timing and frequency speed. The dual-channel kit will come in a 16GB capacity, and like its DDR4-5333 mate, the DDR-4800 memory kit will also have a high 1.6V DRAM voltage. The DDR4-4600 memory, a low-end option that still has impressive numbers. Capacity coming in at 64GB (2x 32GB), having a 20-30-30-50 timing, requiring only 1.5 DRAM voltage.
There is no specific timetable from G. Skill regarding retail pricing or launch date. However, it's scheduled to be launched in the second quarter of this year. Sum it all up, what we have here from G. Skill is impressive memory kits that will potentially offer significant performance and speed. But you can expect high retail prices for these memory kits.
