G.SKILL Showcases Extreme DDR4 Memory Kits up to DDR4-5066MHz at Computex 2018
G.SKILL showcase a series of high speed DDR4 kits on various platforms at Computex 2018, they now have reached 5033 Mhz on a Trident Z kit of theirs. More after the fold.
Taipei, Taiwan (6 June 2018) – G.SKILL International Enterprise Co., Ltd., the world’s leading manufacturer of extreme performance memory and gaming peripherals, is showcasing a series of ultra-high speed DDR4 kits on various platforms at Computex 2018.
DDR4-5066MHz 2x8GB –The Highest Frequency in Dual Channel Memory Configuration
Chasing after the fastest possible memory speed, G.SKILL once again breaks the limits and presents the Trident Z RGB DDR4-5066MHz extreme dual-channel kit built with Samsung 8Gb ICs, which is the highest frequency dual-channel memory on live demo display at Computex 2018. This extremely high memory speed live demo system is built with the latest Intel® Core™ i7-8700K processor and MSI Z370I Gaming PRO CARBON AC motherboard.
DDR4-4800MHz CL17 2x8GB – The Ultimate Combination of Frequency & Timing
Another ground breaking demo memory kit at the G.SKILL booth is the DDR4-4800MHz CL17-17-17-37 2x8GB Trident Z RGB memory kit that’s based on Samsung B-die, which showcases the lowest possible CAS latency timing at such high frequency. This extreme memory kit is demoed with the Intel® Core™ i7-8700K processor and ASUS ROG MAXIMUS X APEX motherboard.
DDR4-4600MHz 4x8GB – The Fastest 32GB Memory Kit
In addition to the high-speed 16GB (2x8GB) kits, G.SKILL also is showing the fastest 32GB (4x8GB) memory kit ever seen at DDR4-4600MHz, while maintaining a low CAS latency at CL18-18-18-38. This extreme performance kit is also built with Samsung 8Gb ICs, and is shown alongside the Intel® Core™ i5-8600K processor and ASUS ROG MAXIMUS X HERO motherboard.
Fastest SO-DIMM Kit at DDR4-4200MHz 4x8GB
Ever wonder how fast a compact SO-DIMM DDR4 memory can be? This year at Computex, G.SKILL is displaying the fastest running quad-channel Ripjaws SO-DIMM memory kit at DDR4-4200MHz 4x8GB, constructed with the high performance Samsung 8Gb ICs, featured in a mini-ITX build with the Intel® Core™ i9-7940X processor and ASRock X299-ITX/ac motherboard.
DDR4-3600MHz SO-DIMM on Intel NUC
Another high speed SO-DIMM memory kit is the DDR4-3600MHz 2x8GB kit displayed on an Intel NUC system, which is modded with custom water cooling. It shows the potential of high memory overclocking performance even on a small form factor system.
DDR4-4000MHz 2x8GB on AMD Ryzen
The AMD Ryzen™ 2000 series processors with the X470 platform offer greater memory overclocking performance than its previous generation. G.SKILL successfully reached DDR4-4000MHz 2x8GB memory speed on the AMD system, built with AMD Ryzen™ 7 2700X processor and ASUS ROG CROSSHAIR VII Hero motherboard.

Those are awesome kits! How come there are no epic kits like these at this speed for X399 and reg Ryzen CPUs? Will there be? You would think since the speed matters most on Ryzen architecture these kits would be out for those AMD CPUs first. I am on 3200 and I have not seen anything more than that for X399 etc in the AMD world(unless I missed it). Huh odd, I wonder what is the reasoning?

The Ryzen IMC may not be up to running those speeds/latencies. Even on Intel you may need some careful massaging to get those reliably working.

4000mhz kit for ryzen is kinda odd, perhaps these kits are based on the newer 10nm DDR4 from samsung
or maybe it was validated on a golden cpu sample.

It's for Ryzen " 2"

3600 is pretty much max for Ryzen 1.
