G.Skill unveils DDR5-9000 48GB memory for X870E motherboards

G.Skill is back with another set of ultra high-performance DDR5 memory kits. This time around, G.Skill is debuting its 48GB (24GB x2) DDR5-9000 memory kit, designed for high-end AMD Ryzen PCs. 

This new kit from G.Skill comes with an AMD EXPO overclock profile that pushes the speed all the way up to 9000MT/s, with CL44-56-56 timings. This speed is achieved using a dual-channel configuration with two 24GB memory DIMMs.

G.Skill verified the memory kit on a system featuring a new ASUS ROG Crosshair X870E motherboard, paired with a Ryzen 7 8700G processor. It is unclear why this CPU was used rather than a newer Ryzen 9000 series desktop processor.

G.Skill also leveraged the new Asus NitroPath DRAM technology to reach these speeds, which uses a special signal routing layout to increase achievable memory speeds.

KitGuru Says: G.Skill has consistently pushed the envelope for memory speeds and that trend is continuing, with ultra high-speed kits for both AMD and Intel systems.
