In an astounding display of technical prowess, the renowned overclocker Hicookie has once again pushed the boundaries of DDR5 memory speeds, setting a new world record at an electrifying 12,726 MT/s. This impressive achievement surpasses the previous record held by Splave, who reached a speed of 12,698 MT/s, and marks another significant step closer to the ambitious milestone of 13,000 MT/s.
Hicookie’s success came on the formidable Intel Z890 platform, utilizing the cutting-edge V-Color Manta Xfinity RGB DDR5 memory paired with the Gigabyte Z890 AORUS Tachyon ICE motherboard. The overclock was achieved with an Intel Core Ultra 9 285K processor and a single 24 GB memory module cooled by liquid nitrogen, reaching a breathtaking memory frequency of 6363 MHz.
The Z890 AORUS TACHYON ICE stands out as a motherboard crafted specifically for overclocking aficionados. With its advanced all-digital power design, comprehensive overclocking toolkit, and intuitive controls, it offers a seamless and empowering experience for those eager to push the limits of their hardware.
Gigabyte has proudly highlighted this feat, celebrating the Z890 AORUS Tachyon ICE as a revolutionary tool for pushing DDR5 speeds beyond 10,000 MT/s—a feat also accomplished by Hicookie in prior months. Despite the increase in memory latency to CL 68-127-127-254, the pursuit of speed continues to captivate enthusiasts around the world.
For Hicookie and his fellow overclockers, breaking records has become more than a competition; it’s a passion that drives them to explore the untapped potential of modern technology. This relentless pursuit has even led Hicookie to set three new world records in the 3DMark CPU Profile for 1T, 2T, and 8T configurations. As the race for higher speeds intensifies, it seems only a matter of time before the elusive 13,000 MT/s barrier is breached.
