Ever since the launch of the new 24Gb ICs, memory manufacturers have introduced brand new 24 GB and 48 GB memory kits which are now shipping. G.Skill has also hopped on board the train and is offering its own kits although the manufacturer only has one 48 GB kit that is made up of two 24 GB modules at the moment. We can expect the manufacturer to further expand its 24 GB and 48 GB portfolio (with faster speeds) in the coming months offering better specs for both Intel & AMD platforms.
