G.SKILL Memory Breaks DDR4 5.5 GHz World Record Barrier
G.SKILL International Enterprise Co., Ltd., the world's leading manufacturer of extreme performance memory and gaming peripherals, is excited to announce the DDR4 frequency world record at DDR4-5500MHz. This astonishing achievement was accomplished by the Taiwanese professional overclocker, Toppc, using G.SKILL DDR4 built with Samsung 8Gb ICs, on the latest MSI X299 GAMING PRO CARBON AC motherboard and Intel Core X-series processor.
Just last year, one week before Computex 2016, the renowned Taiwanese overclocker, Toppc, broke the DDR4 5GHz barrier using G.SKILL memory and MSI Z170I GAMING PRO AC motherboard. A year after, he raise the bar once again and became the first ever to push DDR4 speed to 5.5GHz under liquid nitrogen cooling. This tenacity demonstrates his overclocker's spirit of pursuing faster speed and greater performance of the latest computer hardware. This record has been validated by HWBOT.

"DDR4 5.5GHz has been our next target after we achieved DDR4 5GHz last year. We are extremely excited to finally make it happen together with Samsung components, MSI X299 motherboard, and Intel Core X-series processor," says Tequila Huang, Corporate Vice President, G.SKILL International. "We are seeing amazing overclocking potential for these newly released hardware and we believe that more overclocking benchmark records will be achieved very soon by professional overclockers worldwide."

Check your own memory in CPU-Z for example. If you have 1600 it will say 800, if you have 2400, it will say 1200 and so on.

That's like saying: "I overclocked my quadcore CPU to 16GHz!!!" (because 4 core's all at 4GHz) :kookoo:Could you fix 5500MHz in the article btarunr?
In the beginning of the dual core CPU's a lot of people also multiplied the CPU frequency by two, because it was a dual core. Do you also think we should go back to that? I hope not :D
1 - This is a semantic dispute
2 - The technical world generally accepts "x real clock * 2 = effective clock", which then reverts back to point 1
