G.Skill Ripjaws V F4-3600C18D-16GVK (16GB (2x8GB)/DDR4 3600MHz/CL18 18-22-22-42/1.35V/No RGB Black/Intel XMP 2.0) Review

G.Skill Ripjaws V F4-3600C18D-16GVK is a 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 desktop memory kit rated at 3600MT/s with CL18 (18-22-22-42) timings at 1.35V, in black without RGB lighting.

Built on Samsung-derived ICs and validated for Intel XMP 2.0, this kit is aimed at mainstream gaming and productivity builds. The black heat spreaders give it a distinct look in a windowed case.

Performance

At 3600MT/s CL18, this kit delivers strong bandwidth and reasonably tight timings for its DDR4 generation, translating into snappier frame times in memory-sensitive games and faster multitasking.

Compatibility

Validated with Intel XMP 2.0 for one-click overclocking on compatible motherboards; capacity of 16GB across 2 modules leaves room to add more sticks on 4-slot boards for future upgrades.

Design

The black aluminum heat spreader suits clean, understated builds, and height stays within clearance limits for most large air coolers.
