What a truly unnecessary product, considering how pointless a Kaby Lake X CPU is. I would argue pushing Infinity Fabric as far as possible with binned RAM would have been a much better use of their time.
I am curious if there any performance numbers using this memory comparing existing ram on this platform. I am personally not a big over clocker - but this memory sounds like it can be over clocked to extreme levels. And Wow, 128G of memory on systems - I can remember the days when 128M of disk storage was consider larger.
I'd really like to see java based workloads on RAM roundups. It's never done but it's the place I'm most interested in. Opening PDFs and playing games? Your budget bin RAM will all perform the same. Running 16 GB GC every few seconds for a realtime JVM application? Well idk if there's RAM good enough for that.
Because I assume it won't work as quad channel 4600, also the cost/capacity From the article, "but keep in mind that the kit is intended only for dual-channel operation and G.Skill tested it using a particular hardware config."

"Trident says that to build its F4-4600C19" - who's this Trident they speak of?Hurr Durr - Friday, September 8, 2017 - link
Poseidon, duh.Ryan Smith - Friday, September 8, 2017 - link
Why, Trident Microsystems, of course!(Thanks!)

Which would be faster: quad channel DDR4-2667 or this dual channel DDR4-4600? In theory 2667 x 2 = 5334 > 4600xchaotic - Tuesday, September 12, 2017 - link
why choose? just buy two kits and run quad channel DDR4-4600 with a skylake-xbillyswong - Saturday, September 16, 2017 - link

Is there a risk of burning one's CPU by setting the voltage that high?
