With the recent launch of the new Intel and AMD processors more and more users are deciding to switch to the new DDR5 memory. Memory manufacturers are releasing faster drives with lower latency, but these speeds also need to be compatible with your motherboard. GIGABYTE has announced that three of its Z790 chipset motherboards for the new Intel Raptor Lake now are capable of reaching speeds of 9300 MHz in DDR5 memory thanks to overclocking.
Specifically, the motherboard Z790 AORUS TACHYON expands its performance to accept memories DDR5 at 8333 MHz, which can go up to 9300 MHz Overclocked, using air cooling. This capacity has also been extended in the plates Z790 AORUS XTREME and Z790 AORUS MASTERthese two models support 8000 MHz DDR5 memory. This is achieved through shielded memory routing coupled with components that reduce loss or interference of the signal, along with the function GIGABYTE High Bandwidth.
It is also possible a custom settings in BIOS to get the DDR5 memory performance you need tailored to your needs, although they are also compatible with XMP 3.0 profiles to overclock automatically. with these speeds we are getting closer to the 10,000 MHz that was talked about early in the release of DDR5 memory.

I am a Computer Engineer and my specialty is automation and robotics. My passion for hardware began at the age of 14 when I gutted my first computer: a 386 DX 40 with 4MB of RAM and a 210MB hard drive. I continue to give free rein to my passion in the technical articles that I write in Geeknetic. I spend most of my free time playing video games, contemporary and retro, on the more than 20 consoles I have, in addition to the PC.
