* The value is obtained by T-FORCE laboratory using I9-10900K, MSI MPG Z490 Gaming Plus, ZOTAC RTX 3080 Trinity OC, Full HD Screen platform, and comparing it with ordinary 2666MHz memory and 4000MHz DARK Z FPS. The actual data may vary depending on different platforms.

 

Dark Z FPS DDR4-4000 is equipped with one XMP profile, which runs without issues on AMD and Intel chipsets. Because of available memory controller ratios and possible latency issues, I recommend it more for Intel users or those who have powerful AMD processors capable of 2000MHz IF/IMC clock. Since the Dark Z FPS memory is based on Samsung B-die, it has full flexibility and allows us to adjust memory frequency and timings in a wide range.

Below you can see how the Thaiphoon Burner software sees it. We could say that nothing new as Samsung B-die is on the market for a couple of years. However, Team Group delivers Dark Z FPS with higher binned IC, giving us a chance at the best overclocking results.

The tested memory runs without issues on ASUS and MSI motherboards with AMD X570 and Intel Z590 chipsets. Below is a screenshot that was taken after over three hours of the AIDA64 stability test. For now, it’s more than enough, while more tests we will perform later.

So far, so good. Now let’s take a look at the product itself.
