G.SKILL Releases Optimized DDR4-3800 CL14 Memory Kit for AMD Ryzen 3000 & X570 Platform
G.SKILL is glad to announce Trident Z Neo DDR4-3800 CL14-16-16-36 4x8GB / 2x8GB memory kits for AMD Ryzen 3000 & X570 motherboard.
Taipei, Taiwan (31 July 2019) – G.SKILL International Enterprise Co., Ltd., the world’s leading manufacturer of extreme performance memory and gaming peripherals, is releasing a highly optimized, extremely low latency Trident Z Neo series DDR4-3800MHz CL14 RGB memory kit in 16GB (8GBx2) and 32GB (8GBx4) capacities for the AMD Ryzen 3000 series CPU and X570 chipset platform. Built with the powerful Samsung B-die component, this is the perfect DDR4 memory kit for those looking to push the limits of memory bandwidth on your new AMD Ryzen 3000 platform.
Optimized for High Frequency & Low Latency
At this point, it's well-known that memory performance with the new AMD Ryzen 3000 processor series is best when Infinity Fabric being tied to the memory clock at a 1:1 ratio. The G.SKILL R&D team is dedicated to push the performance boundaries even further and developed a high-frequency, low-latency memory kit at DDR4-3800 CL14-16-16-36 in capacity configurations of 8GBx2 and 8GBx4, reaching a superb memory bandwidth performance under the optimal 1:1 ratio.
As seen in the screenshot below, this Trident Z Neo memory kit is running at DDR4-3800 CL14-16-16-36 in 8GBx2 capacity with the AMD Ryzen 9 3900X processor and the MSI MEG X570 GODLIKE motherboard, reaching a tested memory bandwidth of 58GB/s, 56GB/s, and 58GB/s for read, write, and copy, respectively.
Complete Stability & Reliability
Like any G.SKILL memory kit, the specifications must remain fully stable under a memory stress test, as shown in the screenshots below, showing the 32GB (8GBx4) memory kit operating on an ASUS ROG CROSSHAIR VIII Formula motherboard with the AMD Ryzen 5 3600X processor and the 16GB (8GBx2) memory kit running on the MSI MEG X570 GODLIKE motherboard with the AMD Ryzen 9 3900X processor.

First 3600 CL14 and now 3800. Really pushing the boundaries here (not that I'm complaining).
BTW, wasn't B-die discontinued?

I thought the infinity fabric dropped the ratio to 1:2 if memory speed was over 3600Mhz

It is, but you can manually force it to 1:1.

Seems not. Or maybe they'll use as a brand justification for the premium prices

B-die has been discontinued so expect a hefty price premium which will probably negate some of the cost to performance benefit of ryzen. I paid almost as much for my flarex kits as I did for R5 2600 but that was also during the dram shenanigans/gouging.

Proof that b-die has been discontinued?
Last time I checked, samsung started to produce more 16GB+ sticks, not stopped produce 8GB sticks of b-die.
I could be wrong

I wonder if they will actually sell the ram? They announced a similar thing with Flarex at 3466mhz that never went on sale.

Why is the memory frequency reported in system always HALF the advertised memory frequency? i.e advertised as 3800MHz, but runs at 1900MHz. Is this more marketing tricking consumers or what? What does the memory run at,... 3800MHz or 1900MHz?

Looks like they have some b-die in stock:
The new memory kits have timings of CL14-16-16-36 and are available in two DIMM kits: 8GBx2 (16GB) or 8GBx4 (32GB). According to G.Skill, the modules are constructed using Samsung's legendary B-dies and will stand up to the rigors of overclocking that they will be subject to in the hands of enthusiasts.

I know what it means. But if it actually, really runs at 1900MHz, then that's what they should call it.... but of course they don't ... because 3800MHz looks better/faster to consumers.

Nice. I figure 3800 @ cas 14 should be about the sweet spot for new zen stuff.
