Product Info
Product Description:
Cons: I bought eight of these for two builds. On an ASUS Prime Z790-A WiFi 6E LGA 1700 board 50% of them failed the sys_basher memory test. After building the system it was crashing so I ran sys_basher which got errors. I then ran sys_basher on each DIMM individually to determine which ones were bad, out of 8 DIMMs only half passed the test. With the four good DIMMs the system is stable and it's able to run the 24 hour sys_basher tests.
Overall Review: GSkill has always been by goto DIMMs over the years, I've built a couple of dozen systems using GSKill over the last 20 years, they've always been solid. Unfortunately these are horrendously poor, a 50% failure rate, see by comment above.

After seeing some of the comments here, how do you determine if RAM is better for Intel or AMD? I was planning on getting the MC 7700x bundle, which has a similar set of RAM as OP but I was debating getting an RGB set from GSkill with the Trident Neo-something. Now I don't know if it's the best option, despite verifying it with PCPartPicker.
Ha thanks. I was able to get a price adjusted to $112 on Amazon. Figured $6 difference for a better return policy and no more wait time might be the way to go

(This RAM is designed for Intel systems; for AMD optimization/auto-detection it's probably best to choose another product.)

I think the DDR5 you paid $129 for was over $500 at the beginning of 2022: https://cdna.pcpartpick
Take a look at this as a reference - not a complete list: https://www.amd.com/en/technologies/expo
