G.SKILL Trident Z5 RGB 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR5 6000MHz Desktop RAM Review
G.SKILL Trident Z5 RGB 32GB has shifted the design slightly from the DDR4-era Trident Z. Now, we get a little more curved flow to the angles of the tri-fin, aluminium heatspreader instead of the sharp corners of DDR4 Trident Z.
G.SKILL Trident Z5 RGB 32GB sells the modules in matte black or metallic silver colour; we have the silver set which I think contrasts the black naming strip nicely.
I would describe the Trident Z5 module design as sensible, high-quality, and eye-catching. At around 45mm tall, module height is reasonable.
G.SKILL Trident Z5 RGB 32GB specs for the Trident Z5 RGB kit we have here are impressive. This is a DDR5 kit running at 6000MHz XMP 3.0 frequency, it’s a dual-channel 2x16GB 32GB set using single-rank modules, and the timings are 36-36-36-96 at 1.35V.
G.SKILL Trident Z5 RGB 32GB set uses Samsung ICs according to CPU-Z. But unfortunately we can’t tell the exact IC model details as Thaiphoon Burner doesn’t seem to like our Z690 and DDR5 test system. You also get a thermal sensor to monitor module temperatures in software.
For a better look at the G.SKILL kit's RGB lighting, check out our video review.
LED lighting is handled by eight RGB zones on top of the Trident Z5 RGB modules. This light then disperses through a plastic diffuser bar for a smooth and graduated colour gradient.
I personally loved the Trident Z RGB and Trident Z Royal modules of the DDR4 era and I think G.SKILL does a superb job to make the DDR5 Trident Z RGB to look just as good, particularly with the smoothness of that LED light diffusion bar.
