G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4-3600 4x8GB 2666 CL19 vs Patriot Signature Premium DDR4-2666 2x16GB in detail
True latency
Both kits land on 14.25 ns. The two spec sheets state the same clock and the same CAS grade — 2666 MT/s at CL19 either way — and true latency is those two figures reconciled, so it comes out the same for each.
Transfer rate
Both kits are rated 2666 MT/s — 21328 MB/s per module — and both are published at CL19. The true latency above is computed from exactly those two figures, so it lands in the same place for each.
Kit layout
G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4-3600 4x8GB 2666 CL19 ships as 4 × 8GB, Patriot Signature Premium DDR4-2666 2x16GB ships as 2 × 16GB. That is a real difference and not a ranking: more sticks fill more channels on a board that has them, while fewer sticks leave slots free for a later addition. Which suits depends on the board and on whether more memory is planned.
Voltage
G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4-3600 4x8GB 2666 CL19 is specified at 1.35 V and Patriot Signature Premium DDR4-2666 2x16GB at 1.2 V. That is the supply each kit's published profile asks the board for.
