GIGABYTE is a relatively new player on the memory market, yet it clearly wants to participate in the premier league. As seen at CES, this week the company introduced its Designare 32 GB memory that claims to offer both high speed and low latency. The company positions its Designare memory for high-performance systems powered by Designare motherboards.

GIGABYTE’s dual-channel 64 GB Designare Memory kit was tested to operate in DDR4-3200 mode with CL16 18-18-38 latency at 1.35 V. The modules rated for Intel Core as well as AMD Ryzen-based PCs.

The manufacturer does not disclose which memory chips it uses.

The modules are a standard height and come with modest aluminum heat spreaders that do not affect compatibility with large cooling systems.

GIGABYTE’s Designare 64 GB kit consisting of two 32 GB modules is covered by a lifetime warranty, just like other high-end memory. Expect the kit to hit the market shortly - prices will vary from region to region and will depend on the market conditions.

    That'd be great. Glass or great materials w/ minimalism would be nice like the Mac Pro.

    DDR4-3200 CL16....so relatively low end, probably Hynix.

    Could be Micron E, which would be nice

    wait nvm, there are no 16Gb Micron E dies

    Could be Micron Rev.B, found on the refreshed Crucial Ballistix lineup.

    I have to admit when I first read the title I was thinking these would look really bad. I was how ever surprised to find that in my own opinion look very good and depending on the price would actually not mind having these installed in my system when I do my next upgrade. It is to bad though that they have such horrible timings but I am sure there is some wiggle room to tighten the timings up a bit.

    "Designare 32 GB memory that claims to offer both high speed and low latency."

    "DDR4-3200 mode with CL16 18-18-38 latency at 1.35 V"

    That is not low latency.

    tis low latency, ultra low would be C14 or 12 (IMO) but 16 is "low" standard I suppose (for the most part) seems to be C18 (or higher) for 3200 class spec (though likely this has changed somewhat since they now have much higher speed DRAM for DDR4 these days.

    course, 32gb per stick with C16 is still really solid depending on price point.

    They do look ok (^.^)

    There is no ultra low latency for me there is only low which is what I consider CL14.

    CL16 is average and CL18 is high.

    For 32GB sticks? That's a really good bin.
