Bought this for my new Z690 setup several months ago, wanted to wait to do a review, but yeah works to specs and so far no errors. Rock Solid Memory! Wish it were 64GB since i'm running out of memory in projects.
Here's what I'm running:
Core i9 12900KF x16 core CPU @ 5.4GHZ Water cooled.
Asus Maximus Z690 Extreme Motherboard.
32 GB Trident Z5 DDR5 @ 6000 HMZ.
1x GTX 2080TI Founders addition.
1x Samsung 980 Pro 2tB M.2. Drive.
2x Dell UltraSharp U2713H 1440P Monitors.

This is the most I ever paid for memory. At the moment I can't say if it's worth it. Still building
4/5 RatingProsSuper fastReceived sooner than expectedConsEXPENSIVEFirst time trying DDR5 Ram.. I've completed a new build and I've experienced issues after issues but it didn't involve my ram.. The RAM lights up and seems to work with no issues. My gripe is the COST.... This stuff was EXPENSIVE.. I don't ever recall paying this much for Ram in my other builds. Nevertheless, it looks good.. and it lights up with no problem. Once I get over these issues with my builds and get my rig to working I can update my review on the performance.

Finally with the newest BIOS (v0812), one set worked at advertised speed of 6000MHz CL36 on my Asus Maximus Extreme. They’re the fastest modules I’ve tested so far including XPG RGB 6000 CL40. But my advise to you is to test each module individually first with memtest86, and then test both again to make sure they’re fine. Out of the two sets I received, 2 didn’t pass memtest. Also the set I had from NE at 6000 CL40 did not pass either. From the two XPG sets I had, 3 modules failed! These are of course as advertised XMP speed, and some modules were stable at 4800MHz. Anyways, test them individually is the key. Thanks for reading and YMMV.
Update:
It seems that G.Skill is aware of these modules problems, and they changed the voltage and CAS latencies on their newer series. The F series now has 1.35V and 36-36-36-96 instead of 76 on E, and the newest G series at 6400MHz has a completely different CAS at 32-39-39-102 and 1.40 voltage. The series indicator is the number near the end right before 16GX2 or 16GA2 like the E series on this FS-6000U3636E16GX2. I ended up returning all E series I had at the end because only one module out of 6 passed Memtest86 every time. The other 5 sometimes failed and sometimes passed. The silicon lottery here is way too much engaged with these modules.
