Hunt4Epic said - Unfortunately, no, if there were non-ECC memory with a thermal sensor, then it would most likely have a premium attached to it. DDR4 doesn’t seem to change this fact. Thermal sensors on memory modules tend to be on memory used on servers, where they need to be alerted of any...

We don’t understand the question, so we’ll assume this is you're trying to ask: "What's the most radical cooling solution G.SKILL has used to test memory?" We typically use only two types of memory cooling: air and LN2. Air, because that's the most common cooling solution, and that we have to...

Since DDR4 is still under development, the tweakability is not yet finalized. We're hoping it will provide enough tweakability to allow extreme memory overclocks and break more world records. -Mark

Calculatron asks- About ECC memory, it’s a whole different segment of the memory market. Since G.SKILL focuses on high performance memory that’s geared towards overclocking and gaming, we direct our attention mainly toward non-ECC memory. Of course, it’s possible to make overclocking and...

kevikom asks- Excellent question. In the world of ever-changing technology, it's difficult to say for sure what will happen in the future. Possibilities like memristors and TSV stacked memory are promising technology and methods to create better and faster memory products, but practicality on...

bharatwd asks- At Computex 2013, we already have live demo'd DDR3 3200MHz on the current Z87 platform. With that in mind, 3200MHz under DDR4 is inevitable, but due to the fact that DDR4 is still under development, we are unable to provide a specific time frame for a DDR4 3200MHz release at...

rolli59 asks- We work with various motherboard makers and try to provide them with memory kits to test with when possible. However, they might not have all the latest models, so it's recommended to check both QVLs. As long as it's on either QVL, it's been tested by either us or the motherboard...

SirProudNoob We don't produce the chips. The chips are from IC manufacturers, but we take those chips and put them through a selection process (called binning) and design the modules. Then this is where the 4 rounds of handing testing comes in, to test for the most stable frequency/timing...

Formata asks- We are still currently evaluating the feasibility and the possibility of an online ordering system. Thank you for the suggestion. We'll take custom made memory kits into consideration if and when we come to that stage of planning. -Kay

damric asks- The Flare series has been officially discontinued. So we don't manufacture them any more, unfortunately. Perhaps you can try your luck on Ebay or Amazon? -Mark & Kay

Cwright7930 asks- Simply, to maintain our competitive edge on the memory market and to provide to all users the best cost/performance value possible.

tonyzet asks- I think our customer- and fan-base speaks for themselves, and will1220 answered this question fairly succinctly here. Not only are we the highest rated, our memory kit quality is top-notch. Quality here refers to two things: reliability and performance. Our memory kits go...

Hello everyone! Thank you for participating and reading the G.SKILL AMA! And lots of thanks to Tomshardware for holding this event, so you have the opportunity to get to know us! I'm Mark, Product Marketing Engineer, and will be helping to answer questions in the next few hours. I already see...
