Packaging, we show you everything my man -- we always start off with packaging so you know what to look for in the stores -- it's as simple as that really.

Here we have the DIMMs after unpacking. These are 32 GB (!) 3600 MHz DIMMs in a kit of 2x DIMMs. Great design, cool that the PCB is black as most motherboards have a black PCB as well these days. Intel XMP version 2.0 if of course supported.

As you might have noticed from that sticker, this kit can manage latencies of 18-22-22-42 at 1.35 Volts, and that your normal latency for this type of memory alright. For optimal stability we do recommend you stick to the manufacturer suggested settings at default SPD or that preconfigured XMP profile. We like the black PCB and the shiny heatspreader, styling wise (hey it matters in a high-end cool looking rig) this is a very tasteful kit as well as aesthetically wise.  In the top white coating, the RGB LEDs reside. You will not need to connect any wires, these feed of and over the DIMM slots. The kit is dual-channel (and doubled-up quad), you could opt for a dual-channel 16GB kit with two DIMMS of course. With expensive memory often come some extras, G.skill offers a limited life-time warranty with these memory modules, you can't beat that.

These days in a PC we recommend 8GB as an absolute minimum, 16GB for a little extra in your spicy gaming rig, 32GB  for the ones that use memory-intensive applications / do memory intensive transcoding and/or content creation and 64 GB for people with specific workloads and Ryzen Threadripper series 3000.
