G.Skill intros 96GB DDR5-6800 CL32 and 32GB DDR5-6400 CL28 memory kits for Intel-based machines
Across two test setups featuring the Ryzen 7 9800X3D (Asus ROG Crosshair X870E Hero) and the Ryzen 9 9900X (MSI MPG X870E Carbon WiFi), the team managed DDR5-6000 CL32 speeds with the included EXPO profile. If your motherboard and memory controller are not the limiting factor, these are the values you should expect out of the box.
A pinch of overclocking with the MSI MEG X870E Godlike pushed this kit past DDR5-7000 CL38. Alternatively, for Ryzen 9000 optimized speeds, the team also managed a DDR5-6400 CL32 configuration with some fine-tuning, but your mileage will vary. If you want the absolute snappiest timings on your AM5 system, consider G.Skill’s recently announced DDR5-6000 CL26 kit.
It should be possible to achieve DDR5-6000 CL30 speeds, but that will require exhaustive tweaking and testing. On that note, G.Skill’s DDR5-6400 CL30 48GB modules are worth looking into, if you’re not after capacities like 256GB. All said and done, this kit should be a game-changer for developers and content creators aiming to equip their setup with high-speed, high-capacity memory without needing to step up to platforms like Threadripper.
