Introduction

G.SKILL is a renowned Taipei-based memory manufacturer with a history of producing performance-oriented products. The company has ventured into other PC markets in recent years, such as SSDs, AIO coolers, and peripherals, including gaming-oriented keyboards, mice, headsets, and more.

G.SKILL has multiple product lines to fit different markets, with plenty of performance-oriented DDR4 options available. These SKUs include the Trident Z, Royal, Neo, Ripjaws and Elite series. With the launch of DDR5 in late 2021, G.SKILL brought forward the Trident Z and Ripjaws series. With AMD's new AM5 platform the following year, both the Flare X and Neo series made their DDR5 debuts as well. The Trident Z5 series offers a wide variety of memory kit configurations with binned frequencies ranging from 5200 MT/s to 8400 MT/s. Early in 2023, G.SKILL announced new Trident Z5 memory kits with higher Non-Binary capacities using 3 GB ICs for each DRAM module, increasing the capacity to 24 GB and 48 GB, respectively.


In this review, we will be taking a closer look at the G.SKILL Trident Z5 RGB DDR5-6400 (64 GB) memory kit. This kit is a dual-rank enthusiast class product, merging performance with high capacity. G.SKILL is continually blurring the line between traditional low-capacity high-performance system memory and the "slower" high-density memory kits available to consumers today. The memory we will be testing today targets content creators and PC gamers alike. Follow along as we take this memory for a spin with plenty of benchmarks!
