Conclusion

Using the good-looking Trident Z as the perfect pretext for lighting, G.Skill adds RGB diodes that combine to offer bright and sharp colour to the inside of the PC.

G.Skill announced its Trident Z RGB memory back in December and presently has it available in almost every capacity/speed/latency flavour you can think of.

Using the good-looking Trident Z as the perfect pretext for lighting, G.Skill adds RGB diodes that combine to offer bright and sharp colour to the inside of the PC. There's nearly as much light customisation as there are colours, meaning you can achieve some nifty effects with a bit of tinkering.

Control of the modules ties in well with the overarching Asus Aura software. So well, in fact, that G.Skill uses a skinned version for its own tweaking. Once you get past the bright lights, this Ā£300 pack offers very good performance on an Intel Z270 platform, though do be aware colour customisation support can be hit and miss depending upon chipset.

If you have your mind set on RGB-equipped system memory, and why not if the rest of the system is that way designed, we prefer the overall look of the G.Skill Trident Z RGB modules to the Corsair Vengeance RGB. Just be prepared to stomach the price premium for shiny RAM.
