G.Skill and Asus break DDR5 memory overclocking record

João Silva October 30, 2024 Featured Tech News, Memory

In an impressive display of engineering prowess, G.Skill and Asus ROG have shattered the previous world record for DDR5 memory frequency. Professional overclocker safedisk has pushed a G.Skill kit to DDR5-12112, setting a new world record for achieving the highest stable DDR5 memory frequency.

To set the new record, safedisk used G.Skill Trident Z5 RGB DDR5 memory, the Asus ROG Maximus Z890 Apex motherboard, and an Intel Core Ultra 9 285K CPU cooled using liquid nitrogen, showcasing the memory overclocking capabilities of the latest Intel platform.

The record submission has been verified, and confirmation posted on HWBOT and CPU-Z. In the latter, you can see the overclocker used a single 24GB memory stick (8800J4255H24G) running with 52-92-92-127-2 timings. Moreover, you can also see the CPU P-cores were downclocked to run at 3.0GHz, while the E-cores were disabled.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
