G.skill GVGB vs GVKB

Solution
Actually, they are not the same, AND there is some kind of discrepancy or they changed IC and design but reused the same model number at some point, because as you can see below the 16GVKB suffix matches two different modules, one of which has dual rank double sided Samsung D-die ICs and the other, which has the exact same model number, uses 8GB single rank single sided Hynix ICs.

The other module, the GVGB, uses 4GB Samsung dual rank double sided E-dies. Clearly, none of these are the same although they might have some similar specifications. Actually, the only thing they seem to have in common is that they are all 3200mhz CL16 modules from what I can see.
