    Wouldn't the obvious one to compare them with be 3600 CL16? I have 2 sets of F4-3600C16D-16GTZ in mine and I'm willing to bet they out perform 3200 at CL14 or CL16, and they cost a fraction of the RRP for these 3600CL14 sets.

    That said, the difference in all but mem specific benchmarks appears to be negligible anyway. Where does latency matter? Sound recording I guess. Maybe some repetitive editing tasks like batch photo processing? I'm not sure those gaming margins are worth the cost for the average person.

    It reminds of a comment I read in a car magazine, a long time ago, "As flash as a rat with a gold tooth."

    I think if I ever bought this ram , I would use a rattle can and spray them matt black !

    They look as tacky as a episode of the Kardasians. just ugly .

    Re: G.Skill Trident Z Royal Elite 16GB DDR4-3600 (F4-3600C14D-16GTESA)

    $105 got me 2x8GB sticks of the original Trident Z RGB RAM @3,600MHz. Yes the timings are significantly worse at CL18 but what is effectively double the price for CL14 and a fancy heatspreader just doesn't seem reasonable. Guess that's the point, but this really doesn't make sense unless money is no object, the benchmarks basically prove that.
