Team Group T-Force DarkZα 3600 MHz (C18) DDR4
Very affordable, very stable

We review an DarkZα 16GB kit from Team Group. The T-Force 3600 MHz 16GB (x2 8GB) memory is cool, fast and runs XMP 2.0 memory profiles on Ryzen platforms as well. Join us as we review some of the faster-clocked bars of memory your money can get you. This CL18-22-22-42 dual-channel memory was optimized specifically for the Ryzen 3000 platforms.

DDR4 memory modules you can choose plenty from, the cheap but dull all-green Kingston Value memory, for example, works absolutely fine. Then the regular mainstream DIMMs, then step it up a little and high-frequency memory is a hint faster and often cooler looking inside your PC with the fancy designs and heat spreaders. The product tested today has simple aluminum heat spreaders, all black. Then there's enthusiast-grade memory for the performance enthusiasts. Team Group is based in Taiwan, a brand we've been working with for a while now as I do believe their products affordable yet offer really good quality and stability. The DIMMs we received today are mainstream to high-end, as they clock in at 3600 MHz (effective through XMP) but have a CL rating of just 18.  Stylish RAM for the people that need fast performance, the people that build their own PCs and perhaps customize them a little. In that mindset, this brand has released an updated SKU based on quality, performance, and aesthetics. No LEDs but pretty cool with great dark looks and an XMP that can be enabled with a simple profile in your BIOS. We received a dual-channel kit, 16GB accumulated, thus holding 8 GB each. 

    

 

Memory prices have been dropping hard so if you are in the market for a kit, this would be a great time. Typically in the past AMD-branded kits have been expensive, that changed with recent Ryzen releases as well, as volume goes up, prices come down.  Team Group T-Force Dark Zα (Alpha) is available in frequencies running from 3200 MHz up to 4000 MHz and capacities of up to 16 GB (2 x 8 GB). They focus on Ryzen system stability and not extremely low latency. We'll check that out of course.
