The pursuit of record-breaking DDR5 overclocking speeds has recently propelled the benchmarks higher, nearing the impressive 13, 000 MT/s milestone. Until we reach that remarkable threshold, enthusiasts are celebrating a new record of just under 12, 900 MT/s, hinting at exciting advancements on the horizon.
Record-Breaking DDR5 Overclock: CORSAIR Memory Hits 12886 MT/s on ASRock Z890 Taichi OCF
In a thrilling display of technical prowess, professional overclocker “saltycroissant”has reclaimed the top spot with an astonishing memory speed of 12, 886 MT/s, just three weeks after Bl4ckdot previously set a record at 12, 872 MT/s. This ongoing rivalry among elite overclockers showcases the rapidly evolving landscape of high-performance computing, as competitors frequently vie for supremacy in the memory speed arena.

Achieving this groundbreaking speed involved the use of a single-channel 24 GB CORSAIR Vengeance DDR5 memory module in combination with ASRock’s flagship Z890 Taichi OCF motherboard and an Intel Core Ultra 7 265K processor. The Z890 Taichi OCF has a proven track record of breaking memory speed records, demonstrating its unmatched overclocking capabilities.
The latency remains at CL68-127-127-127-2, unchanged despite the new speed achievement. This consistency can be attributed to only a marginal increase of 14 MT/s from the previous record. However, the challenge of surpassing this threshold is significantly greater than larger jumps, such as from 11, 000 MT/s to 12, 000 MT/s, due to the meticulous adjustments required, which often include advanced cooling methods like Nitrogen to maintain optimal temperatures during testing.
Interestingly, the pace of record-setting achievements has slowed considerably. Prior to this, new world records were frequently established on a weekly basis. As the Z890 platform and DDR5 memory approach their performance limits, the frequency of breakthroughs may continue to decline. Yet, the ambitious community of overclockers, including names like saltycroissant, seby, and bl4ckdot, remain determined to push the boundaries and potentially hit 13, 000 MT/s in the near future.
For further verification, the record is supported by resources such as CPU-Z Validator and HWBot.
