G.Skill isn't the only company launching memory today, since Avexir is doing the same, although its own target market segment is somewhat different from the one of before.
Rather than aiming for the absolute highest tier of the worldwide market, Avexir is, instead, looking at the bulk of the mid-range segment, the mainstream as it is otherwise called.
The Core Series is what it launched, though it is probably worth noting that the products have actually been public knowledge since Computex, Taipei, 2011.
That said, there are four DDR3 offerings, with module capacities of 2 GB or 4 GB and speeds of 1,333 MHz or 1,600 MHz.
These are only the first products, though, as the official announcement implies that others will come later, perhaps with larger capacities and such.
After all, the new Intel central processing units can't exactly go without massive RAM capacities.
Granted, they work just fine even on 2GB or 4GB, but since they are meant for enthusiasts, overclocking that is, large numbers of Gigabytes are a must.
That said, Avexir's memory may not be the most capacious or even the fastest, but it does have pulsating LEDs.
The heatspreader is shaped in a way that lights the company logo (top-placed) and makes a visible, stark contrast with the black PCBs.
Avexir prepared both dual-channel and triple-channel kits with capacities of up to 8 GB and 12 GB, all of which sell through Caseking.
Prospective buyers should be able to find them online already, at a price of 27.90 Euro.

US prices have not been mentioned, probably because the Core Series won't actually be available there, not yet anyway.
Still, for those who really want to know, 27.90 Euro is the same as $38.10, not that it matters much, what with products seldom reflecting exchange rates.
