G.skill shows trident z ddr4 memories at 5066mhz in computex

G.Skill wants to continue demonstrating its leadership in the PC memory market, the brand has shown the fastest dual channel memory kit in the world, which has been able to reach a speed of 5066MHz, thus breaking the barrier of 5 GHz. New Trident Z DDR4 at 5066MHz.

New G.Skill Trident Z DDR4 memories at 5066MHz

These new G.Skill Trident Z DDR4 modules are made with the best quality Samsung 8Gb DDR4 memory chips, something that has allowed the manufacturer to exceed 5GHz in what will become a commercial memory kit. DDR4 memory manufacturing processes are increasingly refined, so it is normal that we constantly see how new speed records are broken with this technology. To accomplish this feat, an MSI Z370I Gaming Pro Carbon motherboard with an Intel i7 8700K processor has been used. The memories have worked with a latency CL 21-26-26-54, quite low considering the high operating frequency.

G.Skill has also shown a second kit that offers the best compromise between speed and latency, with a frequency of 4800MHz at CL 17-17-17-37. These memories are based on the same Samsung B-Die chips and have run on an Asus ROG Maximus X APEX.

Lastly, G.Skill has also shown a 4, 000MHz memory kit than in an AMD Ryzen processor-based system, showing the memory overclocking benefits offered by second-generation Ryzen processors. To reach 4, 000 MHz on the AMD platform, a latency of CL 18-22-22-42 has been required, which shows that it is still an important step behind Intel in this regard.
