G.Skill TridentZ 5 DDR5 5600 CL36 review

Posted by: Krzysztof Hukalowicz on: 03/15/2022 05:04 PM [ 10 comment(s) ]

G.Skill has prepared very well for launching a new memory standard and has presented three DDR5 series: the Trident Z5 (5600-6400 MHz), the Trident Z5 RGB (the same range as the non-RGB’s), and the Ripjaws S5 (5200-5600 MHz). They all come in 32 GB kits (2x 16 GB), and their frequency is higher than the base 4800 MHz. Today, we are checking the G.Skill TridentZ5 5600 MHz CL36 DDR5 kit. It’s not the high-end of the series, as even the 6400 MHz CL32 are available, and the 5600 MHz is the lowest frequency you can get from this DDR5 family.

Now try 4 sticks of that stuff and see if you can run at XMP.

Still rocking my TridentZ Neo kit won from Guru3D winter contest 2020. Incredible DDR4!
Doubt i'll try DDR5 anytime soon given it's not compatible with x570.

RGB seems toned down here in comparison.

haven't you seen all my rants ? it's a giant scandal the big lie currently by everyone including youtubers that just don't want to say the words, JayzTwoCents even made a video about ddr5 problems he's not dumb he knows 2 sticks works fine not 4 but still he didn't dare say it : Z690 DOES NOT SUPPORT 4 STICKS
period....each stick is two channels so you're trying to jam 8 channels into a 4 channel chipset-cpu combo it does not work
intel is lying asus asrock msi etc...are all lying with their 4 slots, if AMD does not come up with 8 channels for their next hardware they are going to get massive backlash from people who use their computer to work

being able to boot with extreme overclock settings to run slowly is not "working"
check motherboard memory QVL the 4 sticks sections are empty or run slower than the base ddr5 4800Mhz considering DDR5 scales a lot with Mhz this is a giant no unlike AMD X570 which honestly doesn't care much

a TRX40 AMD threadripper motherboard you can boot with 8 different brand/type/models sticks one in each of the 8 memory slots and it boots and is perfectly stable as long as you sync them all to the slowest stick I know I tried myself so all that "incompatiblity" "kits not meant to work together" and all that other crap you read about DDR5 is either bs or unacceptable as a sold product

Buildzoid from actually hardcore overclocking warned us all before he even had a z690 just reading specs and thinking about it he said he didn't understood why they made 4 slots motherboards there was no point and he was right

related to this review...I now tried 4 different ddr5 memory kits 3 corsair and 1 gskill they all work at their advertised speeds with 2 sticks
corsair are crap tough even the sk hynix ones ocing the cpu is super instable, motherboards takes 3min to boot for no reason when G.Skill 6000Mhz
F5-6000U3636E16GX2-TZ5K
are plug and play and stable with 3 cores at 5.5Ghz and allcores at 5.2Ghz

Interesting - I wonder why there's no coverage of this? It certainly impacts purchasing decisions - if you're thinking "I can start with 32 gigs, but I'll need 64 soon enough" and you have to buy a 64 kit instead of another 32.
