Performance and where it ranks
Two different questions, side by side. Performance compares what the hardware can do; Value compares what that capability costs at today’s price. A product can rank high on one and low on the other — that gap is the point.

Balanced has no letter: it is a weighting preset, not a capability rubric. A grade answers “how well does this handle that job?” — price is never part of it. Relative Value puts the current market price back in.

DDR4
The board must take DDR4 — DDR generations are not interchangeable
288-pin DIMM
Desktop boards take full-size DIMMs; laptops and mini PCs take SO-DIMMs.
2 free slots
A kit is tested as a set; filling fewer slots than modules is not possible.
XMP/EXPO support for 3600 MT/s
3600 MT/s is a profile speed — the board and CPU memory controller have to support it, and it is off until you enable it in BIOS

G.SKILL 32GB DDR4 3600MHz CL18 offers B-grade capability for Productivity. It ranks #203 by capability in the current modelled field. Its clearest measured strength is memory index 1. The main limitation appears when Gaming becomes the priority, where it grades C.
G.SKILL 32GB DDR4 3600MHz CL18 offers B-grade capability for 24/7 Server. It ranks #203 by capability in the current modelled field. Its clearest measured strength is memory index 1. Samsung 32GB DDR3 1600MHz CL11 currently clears the same practical bar with stronger Relative Value.
FAQ
Why does Relative Value change when I choose another scenario?
Each scenario changes the weights applied to capability, price and the other published factors. The hardware facts stay fixed, but the value question changes, so its score and rank can change too.
Why can Amazon appear without a tracked price?
Amazon listing snapshots can participate in Value while fresh. We show Check on Amazon instead of its price; confirm the current price and availability at the store. When no current listing snapshot exists, Amazon is a search link only.
