It's more RGB memory - this time from Team Group. Leo finds out how good it really is

To celebrate the launch of Thermaltake's all-new WaterRAM, we are teaming up to give away one 16GB kit to a lucky KitGuru reader!

Its unique, expensive, but really good. Leo likes it!

RAM prices have been in a constant state of flux over the last few years. Most of the time, picking up a 3000MHz+ 16GB kit will set you back close to, if not more than £200 here in the UK. Fortunately, memory pricing is predicted to be coming down over …

It seems that almost every memory manufacturer has its own RGB offering these days, although prices set a pretty high barrier for entry if users want to spruce up their rig. Corsair has now come up with a temporary solution for those with extra DIMM slots spare, putting dummy RAM …

RAM prices have risen significantly over the last couple of years and while things are starting to settle down a bit now, there are still many who believe that something shady was going on. In December 2017, China's economic regulator began investigating Samsung, SK Hynix and Micron in order to …

Back in June, we had the chance to check out G.Skill's booth at Computex. This is when we got our first look at the company's new Trident Z Royal memory series, bringing a new, distinct look. It has been several months since we last saw it, but the carriage has …

We still have some life left in the DDR4 generation but DDR5 is coming and SK Hynix is already at the forefront.

G.Skill has been a front runner in high-performance RAM for a good while now. We've seen the company push DDR4 speeds to their limits and now, the company is turning its attention to delivering higher capacities, with new 64GB and 128GB DDR4 RAM kits heading our way. The 64GB kit …

We've been hearing more and more reports surrounding corporate espionage in the tech industry over the last year. This time around, the US government is getting involved, with the Department of Justice cracking down on a company known as ‘Fujian Jinhua Integrated Circuit Company' and its DRAM partner, UMC, over …

NAND Flash prices entered a freefall earlier this year, hitting lows of 50 percent thanks to oversupply. It was initially reported that DRAM would shortly follow, but limitations from the world's top-3 DRAM makers are set to reduce capacity expansions in order to stabilise prices. The drop in NAND Flash …

Although Intel’s 14nm CPU shortage wasn’t the most welcome news last month, it did enable DRAMeXchange to tease a much-needed price decline within both the DRAM and NAND markets. This is set to steepen throughout 2019, however weak price trends suggest that we could see significant price drops by the …

G.Skill has partnered with ASUS to develop brand new Double Capacity DIMM technology, crafting the newly announced Trident Z RGB DC series DDR4 64GB (32GBx2) memory kits. For the more speed conscious, the memory manufacturer has also set the fastest XMP speed in both 16GB and 32GB configurations to date …

Industry analysts expect Intel’s 14nm CPU shortage to lead to a further price decline for DRAM and storage markets later in the year.

It's G.Skill's latest DDR4 memory kit - if you can see it, that is!

Samsung is well known in the semi-conductor world and is an established leader when it comes to memory. The company has been working on 16 gigabit GDDR6 memory modules since last year, the chips even went into mass production back in January. Now, we are seeing the proper debut, as …

SK Hynix is the second largest DRAM manufacturer in the world behind Samsung. And after strong financial results for the last quarter, the company is looking to invest 3.5 trillion Won (£2.37 billion) in a new semiconductor fabrication plant at its HQ in Icheon, South Korea. SK Hynix has announced …

Since early 2017, we've been hearing about DRAM shortages and strains when it comes to supply and demand. In fact, the situation has been so seemingly odd that China's economic regulator launched an investigation into market collusion. It looks like there might be light at the end of the tunnel …

Samsung has announced the completion of its new 8-gigabit LPDDR5 DRAM chip, raising data rates up to 6.4Gbps-per-pin. While mass production is seemingly a little way off yet, the new memory is expected to help bolster artificial intelligence (AI) technology in smartphones within the next few years. Beyond its 16Gb …

Google Chrome is already rather infamous for eating up a lot of RAM. Last year, we saw Google begin to take steps to tackle the issue, but thanks to Spectre, those efforts are now in-vain. This week, Google announced that Chrome would be getting a Site Isolation feature, which will …

Patriot has joined the fray with its Viper RGB memory - does it impress?

Samsung, SK Hynix and Micron could reportedly be facing unpleasant fines up to $8 billion if found guilty for DRAM price fixing.

G.Sskill achieved new heights at Computex, using liquid nitrogen to break the world record for fastest DDR4 memory at 5543MHz. The firm also managed to step up its air cooling game, showcasing a 16GB (2×8) DDR4 Trident Z RGB kit at 5066MHz. “Chasing after the fastest possible memory speed, G.Skill …

It's the first day of Computex and it looks like G.Skill is already breaking world records, achieving a staggering 5543MHz on DDR4 memory.

Today at Computex we had the chance to catch up with Corsair and get all of the details on the new SF and Vengeance series power supplies, in addition to new Vengeance RGB Pro memory. Starting off with power supplies, Corsair is introducing a new range of small form factor …

Investigations are currently underway to determine whether or not there has been foul play among the top three memory manufacturers, after Samsung, SK Hynix and Micron were accused of fixing the prices of DRAM and NAND memory throughout 2017. This has prompted China’s Ministry of Commerce to step in and …

Putting its newfound lighting expertise to good use, Patriot has returned to the RAM world by introducing its brand new Viper RGB DDR4 series of memory. Despite being a treat for the eyes with its multiple lighting zones, Patriot is keen not to sacrifice its reputation for performance, offering its …

For the last year and a half, there have been consistent reports of a worldwide memory shortage. There has been debate over whether or not companies like Samsung, SK Hynix and Micron are unable to keep up with demand, or just unwilling, but theories aside, it looks like there is …

Today is launch day for AMD's 2nd Gen Ryzen processors, meaning the new CPUs and X470 motherboards have hit store shelves and begun shipping out to customers. To help bolster the launch, G.Skill has launched some new memory kits, bringing higher speed DDR4 to the new X470 platform. There are …

After a supply shortage began in 2016, DRAM and NAND prices began to shoot up, lasting all throughout the following year. It wasn’t until December 2017 that reports circulated of prices finally stabilising, which might be just around the corner thanks to a recent oversupply of NAND flash memory. Market …
