When Intel moved the launch of the X99 platform forward it caught some companies off guard, but one company that was more than ready for the launch was G.Skill. G.Skill had no less than 23 different DDR4 memory kits ready to sell on launch day! That is an impressive number of kits and if you are looking for a 16GB, 32GB or 64GB kit of four DDR4 modules the folks over at G.Skill will be more than happy to sell you a Ripjaws 4 DDR4 memory kit that is clocked at 2133MHz, 2400MHz, 2666MHz, 2800MHz, 3000MHz, 3200MHz, 3300MHz or even the World’s fastest memory kit at 3333MHz. G.Skill has by far the most impressive lineup of DDR4 memory modules by any company and they are priced very aggressively. Today we’ll be taking a look at the G.Skill Ripjaws 4 16GB (4x4GB) DDR4 kit of memory that is clocked at 3000MHz with CL15 timings and using 1.35 Volts.

nice review and shows (just like in the Kingston test) the best bang for the buck seems to be the 2666Mhz kit. Anything above that is a waist of money. At this speed you still have the benefit of lower voltage, tighter timings and it seems the performance above that is too small if any to justify spending any more money.

Nice review. Just wondering how you removed the heat spreaders?? More specifically how did you remove the side with no memory chips on it?? I have removed the side with the chips easily with a little heat from a heatgun. But the other side is not coming off easily, not even with heat. What the heck did you do???

I cheated... I got a kit so early that the new heat spreaders weren't even made. G.Skill later sent me the heat spreaders to include for the review :)
