G.SKILL Announces New Colors for Trident Z

Thermaltake announced today the official release of the TOUGHRAM RGB and TOUGHRAM XG RGB memory kits. The XG variant is the premium option and is available with speeds ranging from 3600 Mhz to 4600 Mhz with 16 GB (2x8GB) capacity while the TOUGHRAM RGB (Non-XG) features a painted aluminum heat spreader painted in either metallic gold or racing red. The RGB for the Non-XG is more subtle with only 10 LEDs and will only be available as a 3600 Mhz 16 GB (2×8 GB) kit. Pricing for the Non-XG kits starts at $155 (links below). Below is the Thermaltake press release.

Today we’re going to have a look at an insanely-spec’ed memory kit, G.Skill’s high frequency, 2×4 GB DDR3-2933 TridentX kit. It is designed for one thing – hitting extremely high frequencies on the Intel Haswell platform. Of course, people looking to buy such a kit want to know how it performs too, so we’ll look at that for you as well.

It seems like all of our favorite manufacturers are expanding into new markets, and well, produce just about everything these days. GIGABYTE is following this trend, launching their first AORUS DDR4 3200 MHz 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) RGB memory kit.
