The World of High-Speed Memory: Exploring the Limitations and Possibilities

For enthusiasts who are always fascinated by how far and fast memory can be pushed, there's an exciting example right here. The G.Skill Trident Z 5060 kit has achieved a remarkable speed of 66 megahertz DDR4 with a latency of 21 milliseconds on a 2x8 gigabyte kit. This is a significant milestone that required LN2 cooling to run at this pace last year, and it's now possible to achieve similar speeds without the need for cryogenic temperatures.

The story behind G.Skill's achievement is quite interesting. The company wanted to push the limits of memory speed even further and experimented with different timings to find the sweet spot. After months of testing, they were able to reduce the latency to 18 milliseconds on a 40gigabyte kit running at 60gigahertz, making it one of the fastest consumer-grade DDR4 modules available.

Another notable example is the team's attempt to tighten up the timings even further. With their 40gigabyte kit, they were able to achieve a latency of 18 milliseconds on a 60gigahertz kit running at 40gigabytes per second. This is an impressive feat that demonstrates the capabilities of modern memory technology.

But it's not just about speed; the team also experimented with different timings to see how far they could push them. After testing various configurations, they found that they could reduce the latency to 17 milliseconds on a 16gigabyte kit running at 46gigahertz. This is an astonishing achievement that showcases the limits of modern memory technology.

The challenge is not limited to full-sized DIMMs; smaller memory sticks are also being explored for use in laptops and other mobile devices. The team built a system with an Asrock XP99e-ITX motherboard, which featured a unique design that allowed them to accommodate DDR4 modules on a slot dedicated specifically for this purpose. They were able to achieve speeds of up to 34gigahertz and latency of 18 milliseconds on a 32-gigabyte kit.

Rising temperatures are not a problem when it comes to high-speed memory; in fact, the team was able to push their systems to extreme temperatures without any issues. They built a system with an Intel Core i7-9900K processor, MSI X99 Gaming Pro Carbon AC motherboard, and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750ti graphics card, all of which were cooled using a custom liquid cooling setup that ran at incredibly low temperatures.

The system's cooling solution was so effective that the components never actually reached their thermal limits. Instead, they continued to run smoothly even when the temperature dropped below 60 degrees Celsius, making it possible to achieve faster speeds without sacrificing performance. The team used a special 3m fluid that was non-conductive and had a boiling point of 60 degrees Celsius, which helped to keep the system cool.

The system's design is truly unique, with a sealed chamber that houses all the components and a radiator at the top that disperses heat away from the system. The team used a custom condenser unit that collected the heat generated by the components and then transferred it to the radiator, where it was dissipated into the air.

Overall, the world of high-speed memory is an exciting place, full of possibilities and challenges. As enthusiasts continue to push the limits of what's possible, we can expect even more impressive feats of engineering and innovation in the years to come.

G.Skill has also developed a range of memory modules specifically designed for gaming systems, including their popular Trident Z series. These modules are designed to provide low latency and high speeds, making them ideal for demanding applications such as 4K gaming and content creation.

The company's Player X-series is another notable product line that offers high-performance memory modules with advanced features such as RGB lighting and improved power management. These modules are designed to deliver exceptional performance and reliability in a range of applications, from gaming systems to workstations.

In addition to their gaming-focused products, G.Skill also offers a range of memory modules for mainstream users who want fast and reliable performance without breaking the bank. Their GB series is a popular choice among enthusiasts and content creators who need high-speed memory for demanding applications.

Finally, it's worth noting that there are some dedicated memory vendors who specialize in producing high-performance memory modules for specific use cases such as overclocking and extreme gaming. These companies often develop proprietary technologies and designs that allow them to achieve extremely fast speeds and low latency, making their products highly sought after by enthusiasts and professionals alike.

In conclusion, the world of high-speed memory is an exciting place full of possibilities and challenges. As enthusiasts continue to push the limits of what's possible, we can expect even more impressive feats of engineering and innovation in the years to come.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enmy coverage of Computex 2018 is brought to you by gigabyte Coolermaster team group and Thermaltake okay guys I'm a g.skill I always like to stop by here because they always have a unique display and some cool builds we're gonna take a look at those in a second at first this is their new flagship product this is in development so it's not quite ready to go yet but this is the transi royal RGB so the next step in their tread NZ RGB series it's got either gold or platinum I imagine all other forms of precious metals it's gonna be on the outside heat spreader very shiny very reflective and then it's got a faceted plastic top that's sort of refract the RGB LEDs underneath as you can see it's kind of projecting up on the top here to show you kind of the effect that it might have in the case this is so exclusive they only have one of them right now they told us that they are being handmade like expert artisans somewhere Holdaway here in Taiwan and that they might have more of these later in the week so if we have a chance maybe I'll tweet out a picture of these if we come back here towards the end of the week cuz they said they're gonna have an actual for dim setup and that will probably look even more impressive than this one does right now still no word yet on like speeds timings and all that kind of thing but if you want to spend a lot of money on memory and people look at and be like wow that memory must've been pretty expensive I think the royal RGB Triton C is gonna do the trick aside from that though if you want something that's maybe a little bit more reasonable I pull the Linus I haven't done that these are okay right okay I got through I got the thumbs I thought these were stuck usually they're stuck to the thing sorry for pulling the Linus there these are the Ares kits of memory g.skill has been working on these for a while because they wanted some low profile because a lot of their memory kits are not very low-profile but oftentimes especially if your air cooling you want low profile memory so the Ares X kit they're finally nearing the end of development it's got a nice accent on the sides I think it looks pretty clean pretty nice it's available in this black finish here they also have white they also have red still in development just like the Royal RGB Triton Z so expect these to come out around q3 or q4 of this year I don't know how far I've set them back by dropping and potentially destroying this gear I'm gonna escape quickly so they don't get mad at me memory overclocking is a kind of a niche category but for people who are always interested in how far and how fast memory can be pushed here's an example right here 5060 hit 66 megahertz ddr4 cast latency 21 this is a 2 by 8 gigabyte kit and this speed last year they had to ln2 cool in order to run at this speed and these timings now that got a kid in there even with RGB they're fitting the RGB signal in there too and it's they're cool and it works not potentially going to be available at retail anytime soon this is a gift that they set up here to say look here's what we can do next up g.skill wanted to tighten up those timings if anytime you see really fast memory but you know the timings are listed why can't you tighten the timings up these skills so here's a 40 600 megahertz kit 8 gig by 4 so they got 4 dims in their test latency 18 it's pretty impressive there's another 16 gig kit two by eights this front this is running at 4700 speed Cathleen c19 and then finally the slash get down here this is in a pretty sweet-looking water-cooled red and black system 48 hundred megahertz kit 16 gig 8 by 2 castle agency 17 tight timings fast speeds and G skill sets these up to demo them and then they put them in development and eventually they'll actually sell retail kits with these same speeds and timing I think what's even harder than making fast memory on a full-sized Tim is making fast memory on SO did the smaller memory sticks the slot into laptops so they have two setups here this one is actually running in a laptop at 3466 speed guess latency 18 and that's in a laptop this is a little asrock for the XP 99e - ITX and in order to fit poor way ddr4 they used som slots on here 42 hundred megahertz cache latency 18 on this kit and this is a 32 gig 4 by 8 kit this is only going to be able to run at this speed on this platform so kind of a unique use case maybe not as practical for people actually on a buy it for a laptop but the fact that they're able to get this memory running at this speed and finally some memory specifically made for risin risin can be very finicky with higher memory speeds but Rison also really likes higher memory speeds so here on the Left we have a pregnancy RGB kit also got the Liam a screamer in there it's kind of fun 4000 megahertz gasoline C 18 this kit will slot into a Rison system and just run at that speed it's only this kit though it's not available at retail but in developments hopefully sooner you'll be able to buy that you can get rise and dedicated memory from g.skill it's part of their player x-series and also of course they've got our GB kits that work as well just got to make sure you get the ones with the Samsung V dies and finally one more kits ddr4 16 gigs 8 by 2 4000 mega its gasoline 220 also inner aizen system so very fast the Infinity fabric you'll love if you run your memory at this speed I have one last thing to show you and it was built by der Ballard look at the bear up there he's looking very happy with himself isn't he that's cuz he built this system right here this system is insane first off specs it's a 1970 900 X and MSI X to 99 gaming Pro carbon AC and a gtx 750ti but what is more unique is the way this system is being cooled there's some special 3m fluid that's down in the bottom that is the entire motherboard and graphics card is immersed in that fluid boils at 60 degrees Celsius so much lower boiling point than water also it's non conductive thankfully since there's micronics running it what happens is the components heat up the liquid boils evaporates it condenses on this condenser unit at the top and then there is an actual liquid cooling loop that's connected to that runs down to the back and disperses the heat through a radiator so it's actually transferring the heat from the through this open space in this sealed chamber collecting it there and then dispersing it I have never seen a computer cooled in this fashion before I think it's absolutely bananas devour great job on this and guys at home if you like this build hit the thumbs up on this video I also want to say a big thank you to my sponsors for coputex 2018 team group coolermaster Thermaltake and gigabyte guys if you want to see more
