RGB RAM - WE GOT IT FIRST!!

2017-02-04
so g.skill sent out a press release on the 19th of December with this picture in it naturally my initial reaction was to freak the math out but pictures on the internet could have been planted there by the dishonest media right I've been told that our GB RAM if not impossible is impractical due to the signal integrity issues that already exist with even single LED color high-speed computer memory so I demanded proof I immediately sent them an email asking to be the first to showcase their groundbreaking entrance into the RGB product arena and it's here the trident z RGB memory from g.skill the essentials kit from cable mod gives you everything needed to give your rig a professionally sleeved look check it out at the link in the video description ok so here it is on my usual x99 deluxe 2 test bench by default out of the box it comes with this kind of rainbow wave effect that IMO looks dope AF but it's not synchronized with any of the other lighting in your system or even synchronized between the memory sticks installed in the system so considering then that there are five individually addressable RGB zones along each of the modules it would be a crying shame if we limited ourselves to just that wouldn't it so let's kick things up a notch trigons the RGB modules can be controlled a couple of ways you can use a suit or ax to synchronize their RGB lighting with the rest of your system or you can use G skills own software which I've obtained an early copy of on the condition that I don't show the interface since it's not yet final and on the subject of non-final software x99 z170 AMD risin chipset and motherboard manufacturers other than a suit will be supported soon TM but they don't work yet hence the swap out to the Maximus 9 code alright so now that we're rocking a compatible motherboard we get to play around with all the different options in g.skill software so let's try some of these modes then shall we damn there are a lot of cool settings in here so you can configure different solid colors you can setup any one of us ton of different hand animations there's the ability to synchronize your effects between modules and even the option to configure the colors of every one of the five color zones on each module individually I got to be honest with you guys I think I'm starting to catch the RGB bug here I mean this is great why not do the video card next I mean who needs a Titan XT when you can have a gtx 1050 TI Strix with our RGB support yes my friends so now that the video card is color cycling and sync with the rest of my system I'm kind of thinking to myself the sky's the limit next stage let's rip all of these power supply cables out of here let's clean up the old test bench get her looking 50 beautiful and maybe ah yes this is a nice touch let's throw a couple of cable mods RGB strips which incidentally happen to also be already and compatible with the RGB headers that you'll find at the top and bottom of the board so we can get those synchronized with the rest of the board lighting for some wicked underglow effect leaving the only standout really awful thing about this build the nock to a fan the performance is great but I think the final finishing touch here has to be a couple of Corsairs HD fans there are new RGB fans with a little separate controller module that lets you pick colors and lighting effect and finally we're done I present to you the line of test bench 2.0 she's falling apart when I do that now with 2,000 percent more RGB lighting isn't it beautiful my friends so thanks for watching guys if you dislike dislike if you likes then like get subscribed maybe consider checking out where to buy the stuff we featured at the link in the video description also down there is our t-shirt store in our community forum which you should totally join now that you're done doing all that you're probably wondering what to watch next so check out our video suggestions which will be chosen probably by Nick because we have like a new outro animation thing maybe by the time this video goes up what I'm saying right now won't make a ton of sense it's the same old outro animation
