G.SKILL Launchs Flare X Series and Ryzen Optimized FORTIS Series DDR4

G.SKILL Launchs Flare X Series and Ryzen Optimized FORTIS Series DDR4

G.SKILL is announcing the Flare X series and FORTIS series, designed and tested specifically for the new AMD Ryzen processor platform. With a brand new architecture, processor, and chipset from AMD, high performance overclocking memory kits must be validated for optimized compatibility and stability for the new hardware.

Designed for the latest AMD Ryzen processor, the Flare X series DDR4 memory kit marks the return of the legendary G.SKILL Flare series that provided awesome performance in the previous generation of DDR3 memory. Built with carefully selected IC chips specifically tested and validated on the AM4 platform, the Flare X series will provide the best compatibility and stability for systems with the AMD Ryzen CPU.

FORTIS for Gaming
Designed for the best quality, reliability, and compatibility, the G.SKILL FORTIS series is the most ideal and cost effective DDR4 solution for building a performance AM4 gaming system.

AMD-Tuned DDR4-3200MHz CL14 64GB(4x16GB)
Not needing to sacrifice frequency for capacity, G.SKILL's R&D team achieved an impressive overclock on a 64GB (4x16GB) kit to frequencies of DDR4-3200MHz at ultra-low timings of CL14-14-14-34.

AMD-Tuned DDR4-3466MHz CL16 16GB(2x8GB)
Further pushing the boundaries of 16GB (2x8GB) memory kits on the AM4 platform, G.SKILL tuned it to a blistering fast DDR4-3466MHz CL 16-16-16-36. Tested on the 8-core AMD Ryzen 7 1700 processor and ASUS ROG Crosshair VI Hero motherboard, this is the fastest G.SKILL memory kit that's been designed for AMD thus far.

DDR4 Specifications & Availability
The Flare X and FORTIS series will both be available in DDR4-2133MHz and DDR4-2400MHz upon release under various capacity configurations, ranging from 16GB to 64GB. Flare X series will be available in higher memory frequency speeds of DDR4-3200MHz and DDR4-3466MHz. Both Flare X and FORTIS series will be available via G.SKILL worldwide distribution partners in March 2017.

They're already available on Newegg, saw them this morning and they were reported as "in stock". The timings look pretty high though, 16-16-16-39 at 2400 and 18-18-18-43 at 2666 :confused:


Those are too cheap to be fast memory modules, faster ones will come I'm sure.

How about some RGB love for AMD OP. lol


If you want to pay more for RGB BS I'd rather give the difference for the next tier in performance, thank you.

Wonder why people expect high speed memory compatibility to be perfect the second the AMD motherboards are out the door? Just looking at the Z170 and Z270 and their memory compatibility was ten times worse, on average it took 6-10 BIOS revisions before they cleared up the compatibility issues.

Because they aren't binned samsung ICs?

The 3200 are the latest and greatest from Samsung that cost significantly more.

Those kits with high timings are usually hynix/micron.
MSI's support website is claiming F4-3200C14D-16GFX contains SK hynix, which is somewhat of a concern since most reviewers are claiming people should avoid Hynix with Ryzen boards.
