CAS Latency CL18

  • Optimised for AMD Ryzen platforms with X570 and B550 chipsets
  • Dual-channel 16 GB kit delivers 3600 MT/s DDR4 speed
  • CL18 latency with 18-22-22-42 timings at 1.35 V
  • Hand-screened ICs on 10-layer PCB support Intel XMP 2.0 profiles
  • Full-length RGB light bar with fluid rainbow wave default effect

AMD-optimised DDR4 kit

This 16 GB dual-channel kit delivers DDR4 3600 speed with CL18 18-22-22-42 timings at 1.35 V. Hand-screened ICs sit on a custom 10-layer PCB beneath black aluminium heatspreaders. A full-length uncovered light bar provides fluid rainbow wave RGB lighting out of the box.

Ideal for Ryzen X570 and B550 builds

The kit is tuned for AMD platforms including X570 and B550 chipsets and also supports Intel Z790 DDR4, Z690 DDR4, Z590, Z490 and Z390. Builders targeting other chipsets or requiring ECC should consider different memory.

XMP 2.0 profile at DDR4 3600 CL18

The decisive specification is the Intel XMP 2.0 profile that sets 3600 MT/s with 18-22-22-42 latency at 1.35 V. If your board and CPU can run this profile the kit will deliver its rated performance.

Questions about this item

How hot or loud does the 1.35V Trident Z RGB kit get when running at 3600 MT/s all day?

The aluminium heatspreader and 10-layer PCB dissipate heat from the 1.35V modules. No fan is included, so the kit adds no noise of its own.

What motherboard slot and BIOS feature must my board provide for the 288-pin DDR4 kit to run at its rated speed?

A 288-pin DDR4 slot and Intel XMP 2.0 support are required to load the 18-22-22-42 profile at 3600 MT/s.

Will the 3600 MT/s CL18 kit downclock reliably on a Z390 or B550 board I already own?

Yes, the kit is validated for Z390, Z490, Z590, Z690 DDR4, Z790 DDR4 and B550 platforms and will negotiate a compatible JEDEC speed if XMP is unavailable.
