Reasons to Purchase
When it comes to memory, we all know that it was one of the best financial products in 2017. The 8GB memory that cost less than 200 yuan last year has now more than quadrupled in price and is about to break the 1000 yuan mark. It's not just about the price — it's about performance. With the recent shortage of DRAM chips, prices are expected to keep rising.
The three big trends in life today include buying a house, investing in Bitcoin, and upgrading your computer's memory. While many people can't afford a house or invest in virtual currencies, memory remains an affordable and effective upgrade. It enhances system performance and is supported by industry reports showing that DRAM is in short supply, which will push prices higher.
About Memory Segments
1. My 8GB memory was bought from the motherboard. Is it now possible to buy standalone memory modules and install them?
2. Last year, I opened an internet café and bought over 400 pieces of 8GB memory at 180 yuan each. This year, the internet café lost 200,000 yuan, and I sold all the computers, with the memory selling for around 600 yuan.
3. Netizens asked: Will memory become so expensive that it’s hard to buy? Jingdong responded: Hello, some!
I started removing 48GB of memory from last year. There were ordinary sticks and RGB light-up ones. I replaced the 32GB RGB stick with a new one. This round was considered a small loss, but not everything was removed. The new RGB stick is the Zhiqi Trident Z RGB Magic Light Curtain, almost reaching high-end standards. Before even playing high-level games, the detailed appearance, RGB lighting, and effects were already impressive.
Appearance Gallery

Two sets of the Zickey Trident Z memory, on the left are the new RGB-lit version, and on the right is the non-lighted silver version. The front has transparent windows for better visibility. The SN code on the back matches the specifications.

The most important feature of the illusion is the upgraded RGB lighting, marked with an RGB logo. It supports ASUS SYNC technology, though not all ASUS motherboards support it. However, Zhiqi has its own RGB control software, making it compatible with any platform.

Illusions, two G.SKILL logo stickers.

Four suits look like satisfaction.

The illusion uses Trident Z to create a trident shape, with asymmetrical fins, a silver side, a black side, and a white translucent bar on top.

The translucent strip has a logo printed on it, which can be removed and replaced. The original Trident Z had color decorative modules in red, yellow, and orange. Now, the design of the translucent +RGB lamp allows for color matching.

Model F4-3200C16Q-32GTZR, supports XMP 2.0 overclocking at 3200MHz with C16 timing.

Dismantling is very simple. First remove the light bar, then the heat sink on both sides is fixed with heat-conducting adhesive, no screws or snaps, so it can be opened directly by hand, but one side is very tightly glued. Although there is a 10-layer PCB, it was slightly bent during removal.

One side of the 8 flash memory, particles cannot see the model. According to users, C16 is Hynix particles, C14 is Samsung B Die.

RGB LED beads, the number of articles in the previous paper installed is wrong, actually 6 on each side, the middle G.SKILL word position is wide, so 2 focus, a total of 12 RGB lights, to ensure adequate brightness and color gradient effects.

Installed on the motherboard show on a show.

The heat sink is thick and when mounted on a compact ITX motherboard, the two memories are slightly kissed.

Compared with Trident Z Red and Black, the RGB translucent strips of the illusion are larger in area and enhance the lighting efficiency.

In order to match the RGB of the illusion, I specially brought in the MSI GTX1080Ti LIGHTNING graphics card. Not only is the size domineering, but it also has a large area of RGB lights on the top and back, consistent with the style of the illusion.

Memory is not powered.

To start the computer, the preset RGB mode of the phantom is the water flow illusion, which is the effect of the illusion wave. The RGB mechanical keyboard player should be familiar with it. Due to the slight difference in the voltage of each memory, the light flow rate of the four memories is also different.

Turn on the RGB driver at this time to synchronize the lights.

The photo after darkening is darker.

Drive Settings
There are many evaluation points for the illusion of running, I will not do it, talk about the RGB driver, the phantom can be used with the AURA SYNC of ASUS, and it can also be used with Zhiqi's own drive settings, unlike some RGB memory drivers, or only with the specified motherboard, with the relative freedom of the hallucination. Download the latest driver, software name Trident Z RGB Control, from Zhichi official website, remind you to see important issues before installation, such as conflicts with other lighting software, uninstall the old driver, etc.

The black-and-black GAMING interface clearly comes from the ASUS AURA SYNC hand. The setup is very simple. The left column provides 11 light patterns and the right sets the light's position, color, and speed.
Specific patterns include Static, Breathing Breath, Strobing Flash, Color cycle, Rainbow Rainbow, Comet Comet, Flash and Dash, Wave, Glowing Yoyo, Starry-Night, and Musical Rhythm. There are 11 modes. The effect of several flashes of light is almost the same. If ASUS AURA SYNC software is used, there will be one more Temperature temperature change mode.

The RGB RGB can be set to 5 different colors, click on the red box below the 5 points of uniform color, Speed lighting effects change speed.

Last Use Experience
Yan value, the illusion's shape and RGB lighting effect is indeed beautiful. I've mentioned before how much the phantom bonfire is, with many MODs using standard memory, but also AMD turned over salted fish Ryzen ThreadRipper official specified evaluation memory, visible explosion level.
Compatibility, installation issues have to say, Trident Z RGB Control driver may conflict with ASUS AURA, MSI Mystic, NZXT CAM, etc. It is not recommended to install at the same time. I encountered the problem where before installing ASUS AURA, the software failed to open. Later, I found out that AURA did not uninstall the clean Lighting program and booted it. It was in conflict with the lighting software of the same name as Trident Z RGB Control. Therefore, the program was renamed or deleted.
Overclocking, although the frequency of writing 3200MHz, can also depend on personal configuration and memory tuning capabilities, in general, the IMC constitution of the new CPU is better, and the new motherboard BIOS is easier on the dual-channel than the four-channel More easily, Intel is easier than the AMD platform. If you are pursuing extreme performance, add money to the C14 B die package.
Disadvantages, first, only the color palette, there is no RGB digital input method, some colors need to be selected slowly, and second, four memory lock synchronization, can not be set separately.
In addition, Zhiqi's LightingService software will occupy i5-7600 5~10% of the background resources, and can be turned off when necessary. At this moment, the memory effect remains in the last state, and resetting RGB requires restarting the computer.
In the end, it is said that by mid-2018, the demand for memory will continue to fall short of demand, and price cuts are no longer possible. However, there seems to be a slight downward trend in the recent week. Should we not buy this year's best financial product?
