This kit uses Samsung ICs as evidenced by the “3500” in the serial numbers. Hynix would be “3400” and Micron “3300” for G.Skill DDR4. Probably the initial batches were all Hynix but these days it seems for all the RAM vendors that Hynix ICs are being reserved for high end kits with specs that only Hynix can pass (3000MHz 15-15-15, 3200MHz 16-16-16 etc).
Thanks for that information, Calvin. Where did you find the info?
