G.Skill pushes its Trident Z5 DDR5 memory to the 7,000 MT/s barrier

G.Skill has just revealed that they have created the fastest Intel XMP-3.0 DDR5 memory kit, offering speeds of DDR5-6666 at CL40 timings. Beyond that, G.Skill has also confirmed that they have been able to push their DDR5 memory modules to DDR5-7000 speeds at those same timings through overclocking. 

To accomplish these high-performance levels, G.Skill has utilised high-performance Samsung DDR5 memory components, all of which has been binned for use with their Trident Z5 series of DDR5 modules. 

With the launch of Intel’s Alder Lake CPU platform being this week, G.Skill is here to showcase to us the performance offered by DDR5, confirming to us that both high speeds and tight timings are possible. Moving forward, even faster memory modules should be expected from manufacturers, as the DDR5 era has only started. 

G.Skill’s DDR5-6666 CL40 memory kit is currently the fastest XMP 3.0 memory kit on Intel’s list of verified memory kits. With DDR5, G.Skill’s aiming to be the world’s top producer of DDR5 memory modules for enthusiasts and overclockers. What follows is G.Skill’s Press Release for their DDR5-6666 modules and DDR5-7000 overclock.
