[GFreeman]

G.Skill International Enterprise Co., Ltd., the world's leading brand of performance overclock memory and PC components, is announcing a new high-capacity, low-latency DDR5 specification of DDR5-6000 CL26 with a total of 96 GB (48 GB x2) kit capacity, intended for the AMD AM5 platform. Designed for PC enthusiasts, gamers, professionals, and AI applications who are looking for high performance, this new memory kit enables low-latency performance at high kit capacities on the latest AMD computing platforms.

High-Capacity & Low-Latency Performance DDR5 Memory for AMD AM5
G.Skill continues to push the limits of DDR5 memory with the new DDR5-6000 CL26 at a high kit capacity of 96 GB (48 GB x2). Featuring a very low latency timing of CL26-36-36-96, this memory kit is engineered to provide efficiency and responsiveness for high-performance computing tasks, such as content creation, 3D modeling, or AI applications, on the latest AMD AM5 platforms. See below for a Memtest validation screenshots on the ASUS ROG CROSSHAIR X870E HERO motherboard with the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D desktop processor, as well as on the MSI MPG X870E CARBON WIFI motherboard with the AMD Ryzen 9 9900X desktop processor.



Fine Tuning: DDR5-6000 CL26-36-36 2x24GB
Following the previous announcement of the DDR5-6000 CL26-39-39-96 at 48 GB (24 GB x2) kit capacity, G.SKILL is updating this specification with an even lower tRCD and tRP latency of DDR5-6000 CL26-36-36-96 at 48 GB (24 GB x2) - making it an ideal choice for the latest compatible AMD AM5 platforms. Refer to the Memtest validation screenshot below on the ASUS ROG CROSSHAIR X870E HERO motherboard with the AMD Ryzen 9 9900X desktop processor.

Overclock Profile Support & Availability
These new DDR5 specifications comes with AMD EXPO (Extended Profile for Overclocking) technology for easy memory overclocking via the motherboard BIOS on supported platforms, and will be offered under the Trident Z5 Royal Neo, Trident Z5 Neo RGB, and Ripjaws M5 Neo RGB memory series. These memory kits will be rolling out to G.SKILL worldwide distribution partners starting in May 2025.

Will be eye wateringly expensive for minimal gains.

I bought a 64GB Gskill kit for just over $200 Canadian ($139 US). 6000 speed DDR5 is relatively inexpensive. It is when you go to 7000+ or super high capacities that the price becomes premium.

These are highly binned mems and they're not supposed to be used at stock settings.

Shame these are only available in RGB, since AFAIK all of the AMD 800 series motherboards have done away with in-BIOS RGB and so you have to run RGB control software (or leave the DIMMs in rainbow mode). That software consumes more performance than you gain with this RAM.

I thought only AsRock had rgb control in uefi?

at least this will bring down cl30 prices right?
