It’s claimed that the G.SKILL company has announced the world fastest DDR4 RAM memory set, which will be retailed soon.

 

This kit includes Trident Z RGB modules, made of hand-picked high-end components. The frequency reaches 4,700 MHz, the timing rates are CL19-19-19-39. The mem operates at the 1.45 volt power supply.

 

The set offers two modules of the 8 GB capacity. Thus, the total volume comes to 16 GB. The novelty is tested as part of a system, based on the MSI Z370I Gaming Pro Carbon AC and the Intel Core i7-8700K processor of the Coffee Lake (6 computing cores; 3.7–4.7 GHz) generation. The upper part of modules is decorated with the RGB-illumination. The memory kit supports the XMP 2.0 technology, facilitating overclock.

 

Trident Z RGB DDR4-4700 (2 × 8 GB) will hit the shelves next quarter. The specialty, aimed at powerful gaming systems, will be on sale at the so long unknown price.

The multeity of PC chassis in the market might create a real confusion for entry-level consumers. Small-sized and big-sized, rectangular and square, black and white models are developed with the only purpose: to satisfy the demands of each particular customer group. Gigabyte, a hardware giant, knows how to attract potential clients to its new products. Sumo series of chassis is primarily targeting gamers due to a futuristic design and bright LED lighting. However, the latest model of this series, codenamed Sumo Alfa, is destined for a wider audience than gamers only and will perfectly suit PC enthusiasts, as well as, users with more modest requirements.

Chassis Gigabyte Sumo Alfa is designed in midi-tower form-factor with lower PSU localization. It is delivered in a mere black color of casing, supplemented by a few steel-like inlets on the frontal panel. The latter is given an unusual shape to justify the slogan 'The Future Begins': glossy surface with metallic …

AMD continues to reveal secrets regarding its Zen-based novelties. This time we are speaking about chipsets for the enterprise market under the Naples code name.



The first of the Naples CPUs mentioned encompasses 8 CCX computing units (CPU Complex) with each of them possessing 4 cores. All in all, there are 32 cores, and 64 threads are processed simultaneously. The chipset includes an embedded DDR4 memory 8 channel controller and a module of 64 64 PCI-Express 3.0 lines. The max RAM capacity is 2 TB. On top of everything AMD Infinity Fabric allows to form dual-processor systems and, thus, double all aforecited rates.


The AMD Co. is going to retail Naples specialties at a reasonable price to provide competition for Xeon E5-2600 Intel products. However, AMD based systems will feature more advanced specs and higher productivity.


Naples CPUs by AMD are expected to be officially introduced in the second quarter of 2017.
