Kingston and MSI Set Memory OC Record of DDR5-12196
Kovan Yang set a new memory frequency record of DDR5-12196 (6097.6 MHz). This was possible with an Intel Core Ultra 7 265K with 2P+0E configuration running at a low 400 MHz, an MSI MEG Z890 Unify-X motherboard, and a single Kingston FURY Renegade 24 GB CKD module. The sub-timings achieved were 48-120-120-127-2. Not much else is known about the feat, such as the cooling or DRAM voltages used. The 5°C CPU temperature reading in the CPU-Z validation page suggests that an extreme cooling solution is being used. The Core Ultra "Arrow Lake-S" processor and Z890 platform, when paired with CUDIMMs (DDR5 DIMMs with client clock drivers) yield extreme memory overclocking capabilities, with several initial memory OC records breaching the 12000 MT/s mark. The HWBOT page can be accessed here, and the CPU-Z Validation page here.

Wish he would also OC in private. Looks like he only does sponsored runs.
Btw the HWBot sub states LN2 was used both for cpu and mem (to solve the cooling mystery)
Nowadays, Hwbot is all about sponsored overclockers and marketing. This is why so many people left it for good, including me.
PS: Overlocking is always about "the last 5Mhz".
Also, wow! Impressive resume you got there.
Most competitions were always like "buy a $400 motherboard and risk killing it for a chance to win a $300 motherboard". Most who won were sponsored guys with unlimited LN2. I won some stuff in my time, too.
'nuff said !
