G.Skill TridentZ RGB DDR4-3600 2x16GB vs TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Z DDR4-3600 2x16GB in detail
True latency
TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Z DDR4-3600 2x16GB is the lower-latency kit at 7.78 ns against 8.89 ns for G.Skill TridentZ RGB DDR4-3600 2x16GB, 1.11 ns between them. That is the figure that reconciles the two spec sheets: a CAS number counts cycles, and cycles mean nothing apart from the rate they are counted at. G.Skill TridentZ RGB DDR4-3600 2x16GB runs 3600 MT/s at CL16; TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Z DDR4-3600 2x16GB runs 3600 MT/s at CL14.
Transfer rate
Both kits are rated 3600 MT/s, or 28800 MB/s per module. They part company on CAS latency instead of on clock, so the true-latency figures above are what tells them apart.
Price and tracked history
G.Skill TridentZ RGB DDR4-3600 2x16GB is tracked at $359.99, or $11.25 per gigabyte; TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Z DDR4-3600 2x16GB at $299.99, or $9.37.
