Asgard Intros Thor DDR5-9600 48 GB CUDIMM Memory
Asgard joined the ranks of V-Color to unveil its first high-frequency DDR5 memory, the Thor DDR5-9600. V-Color recently launched its DDR5-9200 memory, and Asgard one-upped it with DDR5-9600. Both these are CUDIMMs—UDIMMs that feature a client clock driver (CKD) component. These modules feature the highest bins of DDR5-9600 chips from SK Hynix. The advertised speed of DDR5-9600 is achieved using timings of 44-56-56-136, and a scorching DRAM voltage of 1.50 V. The module includes an XMP 3.0 profile to enable these settings on an Intel platform. With a single-rank configuration and 24 GB module density, the dual-channel kit gives you 48 GB. Asgard revealed that it is working on a DDR5-10000 kit. The company didn't announce US availability.

But the trend is definitely going backwards in terms of power consumption, temperatures and voltage. 1.5V is already quite high for DDR4, so I do have concerns about reliability and durability of these modules on a fairly average use case.
I want some Odin modules of 12000Mhz or else!!
