Desktop memory module G.SKILL Trident Z5 RGB F5-6000J3636F16GX1-TZ5RK 16 GB DDR5 288‑pin DIMM 6000 MT/s CAS36

G.SKILL Trident Z5 RGB DDR5 16 GB (single-module) is a high-performance desktop memory module designed for next-generation DDR5 platforms. The module operates at 6000 MT/s with CAS latency of 36 and uses a 288‑pin DIMM form factor. It features a streamlined aluminum dual-texture heatspreader available in metallic silver or matte black and a translucent RGB light bar for system lighting synchronization.

Advantages

The Trident Z5 RGB combines high transfer speeds of DDR5 with hand-screened ICs and an on-board PMIC for improved power delivery and signal integrity at high frequencies. Its slim heatspreader and optimized RGB light bar provide compatibility with modern PC builds while offering XMP 3.0 support for easy performance tuning and two user-customizable profiles.

Suitable for

• Gaming desktops seeking high memory bandwidth
• Overclocking and performance tuning on DDR5 platforms
• Content creation systems requiring faster data transfer
• System upgrades where RGB lighting and aesthetic integration are desired

Key specifications

• Capacity: 16 GB (single DIMM)
• Memory type: DDR5
• Speed: 6000 MT/s
• CAS latency: 36
• Form factor: 288‑pin DIMM
• Lighting: Multicolour RGB light bar
