G.Skill - NEW TridentX 3000MHz RAM - Computex 2013

**Computex Coverage: G-Skill Unveils High-Frequency Memory Modules**

G-Skill has been making waves at Computex with its latest memory modules, specifically designed to take advantage of the overclocking potential offered by Haswell-based systems. The company's engineers have been working tirelessly to push the limits of what is possible with these new modules, and their efforts have paid off in a big way.

**Overclocking Potential**

When it comes to overclocking memory, G-Skill has found that the key to success lies in tweaking the timings, CPU frequency, and motherboard specs. The company's engineers have developed a deep understanding of the complex science behind overclocking, and they're not afraid to push the limits of what is thought possible. As Mark explained, "It's a whole science... going on there right. It's very complex." With Haswell, the highest stock clock speed was 2833 MHz, but with G-Skill's new modules, it's now possible to reach speeds of up to 3000 MHz.

**New Memory Modules**

G-Skill is introducing two new memory module kits: 16 GB and 32 GB, both available in a range of frequencies from 2832 MHz to 3000 MHz. The company claims that its new modules are the first to achieve XMP certification with Intel, and they're confident that their high-frequency kits will be a hit among gamers and content creators alike.

**Hyper Pi Test**

To demonstrate the stability of G-Skill's new memory modules, the company ran a test using Hyper Pi, an open-source benchmarking tool designed to push the limits of system performance. The results were impressive: running eight threads through Hyper Pi was a breeze for the 16 GB kit, and the 32 GB kit handled it with ease as well.

**Four-Module Overclocking**

One of the most impressive feats achieved by G-Skill's engineers was overclocking four memory modules simultaneously to reach speeds of over 3250 MHz. This is no easy feat, as synchronizing the timing across all four modules requires a deep understanding of the complex science behind overclocking. The company's engineers had to tweak everything from the CPU frequency to the motherboard settings in order to achieve this level of stability.

**Availability and Pricing**

G-Skill's new memory modules are available now, with the 60 GB kit already on sale. The company expects the 32 GB kit to become available soon, although pricing will depend on the local retailer. Mark explained that prices can vary depending on where you buy them, but overall, G-Skill is confident that its high-frequency kits will be a great value for gamers and content creators who need high-performance memory.

**Conclusion**

G-Skill's latest memory modules are a testament to the company's commitment to pushing the limits of what is possible with computer hardware. With their new 16 GB and 32 GB kits, G-Skill has set a new standard for high-frequency memory modules, and it will be interesting to see how other companies respond in the coming months.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enso hey guys we are here at the g skill event they're overclocking right behind us i'm here with mark one of the engineers uh g skill memory so mark uh tell us what's going on back here what motherboards are they using what memory are they using exactly what are we setting a new world record here today or something well this is our annual computex uh overclocking event and this is one of the kind in the world because we invite top overclockers from around the world and work with the four major motherboard manufacturers today you're going to see a gigabyte we're going to overclock on gigabyte motherboards with our g-skill memory and what's the memory modules are they using what's the capacities or is there any standard of the type of modules yeah modules well they typically use our trident x series and it really depends on them because we have both four gigabyte modules and eight gigabyte modules and we have our uh top modules available in 4 8 16 and 32 gigabytes sets right yeah and what's the speed that we're overclocking with the speed well a couple of days ago we broke the world record at about 40 to 29 megahertz 4 229 megahertz that's pretty that's pretty impressive we're trying to break that today so we'll see what happens what are the what's the progress on that the progress on that well i don't know we'll find out later on we'll find out we'll find out so uh what's that what's the process of overclocking the memory is where they most tweaking in the memory module the timings uh they're working with the the motherboard specs with the cpu so there's a lot of it's a whole science uh going on there right it's a very complex science but what you're trying to do is increase the clock frequency and you're working with the timings and you're also trying to work with the uh the cpu frequency in order to get uh get a stable um setting so that you can actually go into the system all right yeah okay okay so now we can go back inside to check out exactly the new memory modules that are you guys introducing this year so let's go in and check those out so now moving back inside we're going to take a look at some of the modules but uh first with the introduction of hasball the the this overclocking potential and just reaching the stock speeds of 3 000 megahertz has become a reality has become uh a potential because with the ivy bridge the the highest was 2833 uh 28 right so now with uh with haswell brings a lot of overclocking potential and just uh defaults the default speeds for the modules now a lot of companies are jumping on board for this so g-skill um mark so tell us about what type of modules you guys are introducing here and what was the process of getting to that 3000 mark on the haswell modules or cpu that it's improved a lot on the imc so then we can get to a higher frequency because it's a lot more stable on higher frequency so we have here is um starting from the 2832 32 gigabytes all the way up to the 3000 megahertz range yeah and then we're the first company to actually validate with intel to have a xmp certification for our uh for our three thousand megahertz kits and getting here um well we have to filter out through a lot of chips we have to go through a lot of engineering we have to make tweaks to our settings and timings and frequency and just pretty much everything on the motherboard so what we have here are 16 gigabyte memory kits and 32 gigabyte memory kits on 3000 and um what we have here is also uh running to show that it's stable hyper pi running eight threads and you will see right here that we have pretty much uh no problem running through here unstable nowheres yeah and it's been on since this morning so it's pretty nice and over here 16 gigabytes we have um we're actually overclocked beyond 3000 and if you see right there it's about 3250. yeah and this is and this is just on air and what makes this difficult is that we stuck in four modules most times most of the times it's usually overclocking on one or two modules but we have to because we're trying to push for the limit we're trying to go beyond the limits and the difficult thing about four modules is that you have to synchronize the timing you have to synchronize all the settings across all four modules which is the maximum supported so we've done a lot of work on that okay so given this this is 33 000 megahertz at 1.65 volts what is the overclocking potential aside from what we see here you know for a regular consumer who would buy these potential it really depends on how you tweak it it really depends on the hardware that you use and really each kit and each system very varies so what you get is yeah what's the availability date and how much are we expected to pay for these well the 60 gigabytes is already available but the 32 should be available really soon and it's on the market it's been listed and according to prices well it depends on your local retailer right well thanks mark great uh memory from g skill uh high frequency module so great for rendering aside from gaming but excellent excellent for rendering we have high capacity modules so 32 gigabytes so thanks mark and stay tuned guys for more computex coverageso hey guys we are here at the g skill event they're overclocking right behind us i'm here with mark one of the engineers uh g skill memory so mark uh tell us what's going on back here what motherboards are they using what memory are they using exactly what are we setting a new world record here today or something well this
