Hicookie, a Taiwanese enthusiast was able raise the bar for RAM overclocking records by forcing the RAM module to operate in DDR5-11136 mode. This is a mode that allows the RAM module to run at 11136 MHz. Although this is 6 MHz less than the previous record it is notable that the RAM module was only used with an aluminum heatsink and no liquid nitrogen tank.
The previous memory overclocking record was set on October 12 last year and corresponded to the achievement of the DDR5-11130 mode at timings of 60-127-127-127-127-2. Although the new record was established at the same delay, the frequency was slightly lower.
The configuration of the test stands was different. The test stand was different because the overclocker used the Gigabyte Z790AORUS Tachyon motherboard. A 16 GB memory module was also identified under the same brand. The system was based off an engineering sample from the Intel Core i9-13900K CPU, which was cooled in liquid nitrogen with a special tank. The experiment’s author was satisfied with using a smartphone camera to capture the video, so it isn’t very good.
G.Skill showed that a single module can operate in DDR5-10000 mode by using only air cooling in November 2013. The ability of the Gigabyte module to operate in DDR5-10000 mode with only air cooling is no surprise. Two extreme memory overclocking results were already registered in HWBot statistics. They correspond to DDR5-11000 modes.
