G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4-3600 2x16GB vs Timetec Premium DDR4-2666 UDIMM 2x16GB in detail
True latency
G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4-3600 2x16GB is the lower-latency kit at 8.89 ns, against 14.25 ns for Timetec Premium DDR4-2666 UDIMM 2x16GB — a difference of 5.37 ns. That figure is what reconciles the two spec sheets: CAS latency counts clock cycles, so it only means something next to the clock it counts. G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4-3600 2x16GB runs 3600 MT/s at CL16; Timetec Premium DDR4-2666 UDIMM 2x16GB runs 2666 MT/s at CL19.
Transfer rate
G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4-3600 2x16GB is rated 3600 MT/s against 2666 MT/s for Timetec Premium DDR4-2666 UDIMM 2x16GB — 28800 MB/s per module, against 21328 MB/s. That is peak transfer rate, not access time: reaching a higher clock costs more cycles on each access, which is why the CAS numbers differ too, and why the true latency above is the figure that compares directly.
Kit layout
G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4-3600 2x16GB ships as 2 × 16GB and Timetec Premium DDR4-2666 UDIMM 2x16GB ships as 2 × 16GB — the same number of sticks either way, so both populate a board's slots identically.
Voltage
G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4-3600 2x16GB is specified at 1.35 V and Timetec Premium DDR4-2666 UDIMM 2x16GB at 1.2 V. That is the supply each kit's published profile asks the board for.
Lighting, timings and ECC
On the lighting question: G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4-3600 2x16GB does not have RGB lighting, and Timetec Premium DDR4-2666 UDIMM 2x16GB does not have RGB lighting. On the full timing tuple, the numbers that follow CAS: G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4-3600 2x16GB runs 16-19-19-39, and Timetec Premium DDR4-2666 UDIMM 2x16GB does not publish one. On error correction: the catalog does not state whether G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4-3600 2x16GB supports it, and Timetec Premium DDR4-2666 UDIMM 2x16GB is published with no ECC. Whether ECC is worth having depends on the platform as much as the modules — the board and the CPU have to support it too.
Which to buy
Without a tracked price for both, this page cannot say which to buy — the answer depends on cost, and cost is what is absent. What the specifications do say is that G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4-3600 2x16GB has the lower true latency, 8.89 ns.
Common questions about this pair
- Is G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4-3600 2x16GB faster than Timetec Premium DDR4-2666 UDIMM 2x16GB?
- G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4-3600 2x16GB is, on true latency: 8.89 ns against 14.25 ns. G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4-3600 2x16GB runs 3600 MT/s at CL16 and Timetec Premium DDR4-2666 UDIMM 2x16GB runs 2666 MT/s at CL19; the CAS numbers alone do not settle it, because they count clock cycles rather than time.
