G.Skill Trident Z5 RGB DDR5-6000 Spec and Price in the United States

DDR52x16GBUDIMM10.00 ns true latency

At 6000 MT/s and CL30 (30-40-40-96, 1.35V), Trident Z5 RGB carries G.SKILL's RGB treatment into this speed class. Its numbers match the non-RGB Ripjaws S5 exactly — same speed, same CAS, same timings, same voltage — so the two kits differ only in whether the lighting is there or not. This one has it, so the decision between the two comes down purely to whether lighting matters, not to any difference in numbers.

Tied 40th of 139 models in the RAM catalog on Speed — 33 models share this figure.

What owners and reviewers say

Summarised from 1 source(s), reviewed September 13, 2026. A source is counted only where it names this model exactly. How we track prices

Commonly praised

  • Strong performance with tight timings straight out of the box, in a superb module design with an excellent lighting diffuser.
  • Leaves some overclocking headroom.

Commonly criticised

  • Expensive even for premium memory, and the gaming gain does not justify the premium over slower kits.
