Introduction

G.SKILL, the Taipei-based memory manufacturer, has a history of producing performance-oriented memory products. The brand has some iconic designs, from the classic Ripjaws to the popular Trident series. G.SKILL has consistently delivered competitive performance in a striking aesthetic package. The culmination of this evolutionary process has materialized into some of the most refined memory designs on the market, most thoroughly within the Trident Z line of DDR4 memory kits.

The Trident Z lineup manages to be both aggressive and refined. With a simple and iconic design, the Trident Z name has become synonymous with quality in many circles. The design has been further improved since its introduction with the addition of RGB LED lighting options, which, like the Trident Z profile, proved to be a refined and well-executed solution. G.SKILL has seen a huge amount of success with the Trident Z line, but there is always room for improvement and diversification. So, G.SKILL has designed a new version of the award winning memory kit: the G.SKILL Trident Z Royal.

The G.SKILL Trident Z Royal is "meticulously crafted to display just the right amount of light refraction" with a crystalline light bar that "scatters the RGB colors in a magnificent display of LED lighting". This glamorous new light bar design has been paired with polished aluminium heat spreaders available in either a gold or silver finish. The new kit is glamorous to the point of excess and may leave customers wanting it on a shelf rather than in their system. G.SKILL is still committed to providing topnotch performance with their kits, and this one is no exception. So, is the G.SKILL Trident Z Royal as fast as it is flashy?
