Select Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Motherboards Get DDR5-8000+ XMP Setting, DDR5-9300 O.C. Support

[TheLostSwede]

GIGABYTE TECHNOLOGY Co. Ltd, a leading manufacturer of motherboards, graphics cards, and hardware solutions, today announced that Z790 AORUS TACHYON pushes the envelope of memory performance to XMP DDR5-8333 and DDR5-9300 O.C. with air cooling. On top of that, the phenomenal performance of XMP DDR5-8000 on Z790 AORUS XTREME and Z790 AORUS MASTER motherboards proves the enhancements from hardware to firmware including top-quality components, new generation Shielded Memory Routing design, and High Bandwidth of BIOS setting greatly improve memory stability and performance.

Enhanced by the new generation Shielded Memory Routing and low signal-loss PCB design, GIGABYTE Z790 AORUS TACHYON, Z790 AORUS XTREME, and Z790 AORUS MASTER can effectively reduce the internal and external signal loss or interference, which ensures blasting-fast DDR5 memory speed. In addition, the abundant BIOS setting of DDR5 Memory Upgrade and XMP 3.0 User Profile lead to the breakthrough performance of memories.




Meanwhile, GIGABYTE's exclusive High Bandwidth feature can further raise total bandwidth on XMP memories to provide superior memory performance without changing the memory clock. Enhanced with top-quality materials, exclusive hardware design and BIOS settings, GIGABYTE Z790 AORUS XTREME and Z790 AORUS MASTER unleash a new level of performance with XMP DDR5-8000, while Z790 AORUS TACHYON achieves the breakthrough performance of XMP DDR5-8333 and DDR5-9300 O.C. by air cooling with its exclusive O.C. kit. This demonstrates the superior quality and ultimate performance of GIGABYTE motherboards.

Z790 AORUS TACHYON

And why not for the equally good Z690 Aorus Master?

They want you to buy the new product obviously

Probably,

I'm running 6000Mhz CL36 now, it seems my motherboard supports upto 6400 according to the memory QVL.

Maybe it supports higher when you try, not sure..

The QVL's are once again, only memory that the motherboards makers have at hand, that they've tested the boards with.
Take it as guidance, nothing more.

So it might run DDR5 8000?

You won't know until you try.
It seems like you need a 13th gen CPU for those kind of memory clocks though.

 

[Sabishii Hito]

I can confirm the Z690 Master with 13th Gen CPU can boot Hynix M-die at 7000 at least, I need to see if I can do more (and test A-die for 7400+).

I for one demand to see 1080p-4K gaming FPS comparison between DDR5 6400 and DDR5 8000 first before buying into the mighthy 9000+ hype.

Because I can only go to like 7200 on the Z690 Master DDR5-8000 is bootable and 7800 is stable on a Z790 Eilte AX though.

Edit: This is with 13900K. I haven't really tried to push Hynix A- Die with that Z690 Master, but I couldn't boot 6600 with a 12900K. Leads me to think that for the most part you need 13th Gen to hit those high speeds. Much better memory controller. Z690 Taychon topped out at 6933 for 12900K, now I've gone up to 7600 with M-Die for 13th gen. Next stop is A-Die.

Agreed. Show us what it does.

So as memory clocks and timings keep improving does this mean Raptor Lake will just pull further ahead of Zen 4 as it's basically stuck at DDR5 6000. It's only hope is low latency sticks. Could we ever get DDR5 6000 CL22/24. Is that possible? If they are stuck at CL28 max and Intel's can go probably get good latency sticks beyond DDR5 7200 in due course, Zen 4 looks weaker and weaker in the long term. I hope the v-cache models are also going to help with productivity not just useless gaming. Performance is already shy high with current hardware, how many more fps do you need unless you do e-sports.
