G.Skill a the 2023 Computex showcased its fastest DDR5 memory kits, including some high-performance kits in the non-standard 24 GB DIMM densities. Our visit to the G.Skill booth begins with a handful very boutique custom PC builds. One of them looks like a xenomorph egg, another like a glass pyramid, and another like an Intel semiconductor wafer, and another like sci-fi drilling platform. The Trident Z5 series of DDR5 memory form the bullwark of G.Skill's current-gen lineup. The company showcased a W790 + Xeon W9-3495X workstation build with an 8-channel, 384 GB (8x 48 GB) DDR5-6000 memory setup, with rather tight timings of 30-39-39-96T.

The company also showed us how fast some of its non-standard capacity DIMMs can get, with a DDR5-6800 96 GB (2x 48 GB) build with 34-46-46-108 timings. The star attraction was a build with 48 GB memory (2x 24 GB), and a stellar DDR5-8000, at 40-48-48-128, and G.Skill even performed a live overclocking event, overclocking this to DDR5-8800 speed. Among the memory module models are special gold and silver-chrome variants of the Trident Z5 RGB, and debuting for the very first time, are the Trident Z5 Royal, with its premium aesthetic, and crushed-ice looking LED diffuser.The boutique builds at G.Skill booth follow.

At the 2023 Computex, ASRock special co-branded editions of GLORIOUS PC Gaming Race gaming peripherals, G.Skill memory, and FSP power supplies. This are essentially variants of popular GLORIOUS peripherals, such as the Model D mouse, GMMK 2 and GMMK PRO gaming keyboards; FSP Hydro PTM X Pro series power supplies, and G.Skill Trident Z5 RGB DDR5 memory, with ASRock Phantom Gaming co-branding. As part of the co-branding, these products get the distinctive red-on-black color scheme characteristic of the Phantom Gaming brand. The products will be marketed by their respective brands, but the PG co-branding allows boutique system-builders to build brand-purist gaming PC builds.

The screenshot below shows the DDR5-6800 memory kit validated with Intel Core i7-12700K desktop processor and ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 Hero motherboard.

G.SKILL International Enterprise Co., Ltd., the world's leading brand of performance overclock memory and PC components, is excited to announce two new DDR5 memory series, the Trident Z5 Neo and Flare X5 series, designed for the new AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors and 600 series motherboards. The Trident Z5 Neo family offerings include RGB (Trident Z5 Neo RGB) and non-RGB (Trident Z5 Neo) variants. Programmed with AMD EXPO technology and created with hand-screened memory ICs, the Trident Z5 Neo and Flare X5 series allow PC enthusiasts, gamers, and overclockers to experience the performance of the new AMD AM5 platform.

Designed for DDR5 memory-enabled AMD Ryzen 7000 Series desktop processors, the Trident Z5 Neo and Flare X5 series are pre-programmed with the latest AMD EXPO (EXtended Profiles for Overclocking) memory profiles, which allow users to easily overclock the memory kits. By simply enabling the AMD EXPO profile in the BIOS with a compatible motherboard and processor, users can unleash overclocked memory speeds on AMD Ryzen 7000 Series processors.

G.Skill is readying variants of its DDR5 memory series that feature the AMD EXPO technology. A rival to Intel XMP 3.0, EXPO makes it easy to use overclocked memory modules with AMD Ryzen 7000 series platforms, by applying the advertised settings of the memory with one click in the motherboard's UEFI setup program, or Ryzen Master. What sets EXPO apart from XMP 3.0 is that it includes not just the memory frequency and main timings, but also fine-grained settings that are unique to the AMD platform. It's also different from DOCP, which was essentially a motherboard UEFI setup program-based feature that translates XMP settings to AMD-compatible settings on a "nearest neighbor" principle.

We've learned from earlier reports that DDR5-6000 will be the "sweetspot" memory frequency for the Ryzen 7000 "Raphael" processor, much in the same way DDR4-3600 is for the Ryzen 5000 "Vermeer," as this is when you'll be able to run the FClk at its highest possible frequency—3000 MHz in case of Raphael and 1800 MHz in case of Vermeer—without engaging a 1:2 divider between FClk and memory clock. At least one G.Skill SKU featuring EXPO has been confirmed, the Trident Z5 "F5-6000J3038F16G." G.Skill already sells Trident Z5 DDR5-6000 kits in the market, but those only feature XMP 3.0, and run the memory at CL30-40-40-96 instead of CL30-38-38-96 that the EXPO-equipped kit will. This is because the EXPO profile includes all the various AMD-specific sub-timings needed to tighten the tRCD, tRP, and tRAS. Various memory manufacturers are expected to announce AMD EXPO memory kits late-August, alongside Socket AM5 motherboards, and the Ryzen 7000 processors themselves; with market availability expected in mid-September.
