G.Skill Demos DDR5-10000 speeds with new CAMM2 DDR5 modules

G.Skill highlights DDR5-10000 speeds using CAMM2 memory on a custom ASUS ROG Z890 HERO motherboard

G.Skill and ASUS have teamed up to showcase the benefits of the CAMM2 memory form factor. Using a custom ASUS ROG Z890 Hero CAMM2 motherboard, the companies demonstrated overclocked memory speeds of DDR5-10000 with an Intel Core Ultra 7 265K desktop CPU.

These memory speeds are Memtest-stable and highlight a potential future for DRAM technology. Using the CAMM2 form factor, manufacturers can deliver higher memory speeds and lower latencies. This is because of the latency benefits of the CAMM2 memory form factor over traditional DDR5 DIMM slots. Shorter connection routes enables lower latencies and increased signal integrity, enabling performance benefits for future hardware platforms.

G.SKILL International Enterprise Co., Ltd., the world’s leading brand of performance overclock memory and PC components, is working closely with the ASUS ROG team to explore the overclock potential of the new DDR5 CAMM2 form factor and have successfully reached the early milestone of Memtest-stable at DDR5-10000 memory speed with a 64GB capacity CAMM2 module on a modified custom ASUS ROG Maximus Z890 Hero CAMM2 motherboard with an Intel Core Ultra 7 265K desktop processor.

Overclocked CAMM2 Reaches DDR5-10000 Memtest-Stable Milestone
G.SKILL is always seeking out overclock memory performance wherever possible. With the in-development CAMM2 form factor and in cooperation with the ASUS ROG team, demonstrating stability is the first step toward enabling overclock memory specifications on future hardware platforms. In this instance, G.SKILL’s 64GB CAMM2 module is overclocked to DDR5-10000 CL52 and running Memtest to 100% coverage on a modified custom ASUS ROG Maximus Z890 Hero CAMM2 motherboard and Intel Core Ultra 7 265K desktop processor, as shown in the screenshot below.

Thanks to the benefits of the CAMM2 memory form factor, it’s likely that CAMM2 memory modules will become increasingly popular with new hardware generations. However, this new module type will only be compatible with CAMM2 motherboards. This means that the shift to CAMM2 requires buy-in from motherboard manufacturers and DRAM module manufacturers.

CAMM2 memory has some serious potential. That said, it won’t be easy convincing consumers, motherboard manufacturers, and DRAM manufacturers to adopt this new standard. Will CAMM2 succeed in the desktop PC market? We’ll have to wait and see.
