G.SKILL Announces New DDR4 Specifications for Intel Kaby Lake Platform DDR4-4266MHz CL19 8GBx2 & DDR4-4133MHz CL19 8GBx4

Taipei, Taiwan (4 January 2017) – G.SKILL International Enterprise Co., Ltd., the world’s leading manufacturer of extreme performance memory and gaming peripherals, announces new high-speed DDR4 memory specifications designed for the latest 7th Gen Intel® Core™ processors and Z270 motherboards under the extreme performance Trident Z series.



With 16GB (8GBx2) and 32GB (8GBx4) kits becoming the mainstream memory capacities in PC systems, 8GB-based kits are in greater demand for higher performance than ever. Upon the launch of Intel’s latest Kaby Lake platform, G.SKILL bumps up the maximum frequency speeds to a blistering DDR4-4266MHz at CL19-19-19-39 for 16GB (8GBx2) kits and DDR4-4133MHz CL19-21-21-41 for 32GB (8GBx4) kits.


The Fastest 16GB (8GBx2) Kit - DDR4-4266 CL19-19-19-39

Extremely high frequency memory kits often are achieved at the sacrifice of unsightly CL timings. Not anymore! With a more streamlined and efficient CL19-19-19-39 timing memory kit at 4266MHz, the limits have been increased under the latest 7th Gen Intel® Core™ processor. Now available on Newegg.com:

The Fastest 32GB (8GBx4) Kit - DDR4-4133 CL19-21-21-41

Those familiar with overclocking and high performance memory kits know that increased memory capacity also makes it difficult to raise the frequency speed. Built on decades of experience, G.SKILL is raising the limits of 8GBx4 kits to an unprecedented DDR4-4133MHz.
