In a remarkable breakthrough for memory overclocking, renowned overclocker Hicookie has shattered previous records by achieving an unprecedented speed of over 12700 MT/s in DDR5 memory.
New Heights in Memory Speed: Hicookie Achieves 12726 MT/s with DDR5
This impressive new record pushes DDR5 memory speeds closer to the coveted 13000 MT/s threshold. Although reaching this milestone may still require significant advancements and effort, Hicookie’s recent achievement suggests it may soon be attainable. The overclocker’s latest feat marks a significant progression beyond the 12700 MT/s mark, a first in the domain of memory speed.

Operating on the cutting-edge Intel Z890 platform, Hicookie continues to make strides in overclocking, routinely setting new benchmarks. This latest record was achieved with V-Color Manta Xfinity RGB DDR5 memory paired with the Gigabyte Z890 AORUS Tachyon ICE motherboard. By utilizing an Intel Core Ultra 9 285K processor along with a liquid nitrogen-cooled 24 GB memory module, Hicookie reached an astonishing memory frequency of 6363 MHz, equivalent to 12726 MT/s, thus surpassing the previous world record of 12698 MT/s held by overclocker Splave.
The Z890 AORUS TACHYON ICE is a motherboard designed exclusively for overclocking enthusiasts, offering exceptional capabilities with its advanced all-digital power design. Equipped with overclocking toolkit, convenient shortcut keys, toggle switches, and voltage detection functions, Z890 AORUS TACHYON ICE empowers overclockers to push beyond their boundaries effortlessly.

Gigabyte has heralded this achievement in a press release, emphasizing that the Z890 AORUS Tachyon ICE was engineered specifically for overclocking enthusiasts. Notably, this motherboard was among the first to surpass the 10, 000 MT/s barrier in DDR5 memory speeds—an accomplishment previously attained by Hicookie himself. However, it’s essential to note that memory latency has risen significantly, now sitting at CL 68-127-127-254, which diminishes performance compared to the more favorable latencies (CL 48-58-58-140) that accompanied speeds over 10000 MT/s.

For enthusiasts like Hicookie, ongoing competition with world-class overclockers is more than just a hobby; it drives the pursuit of excellence in memory speeds. Hicookie’s outstanding achievement has also led to the establishment of three world records in 3DMark CPU Profile across 1T, 2T, and 8T configurations, all utilizing the cutting-edge 12726 MT/s memory speed. Given this trajectory, it’s reasonable to anticipate that other overclockers will aim to break even more records in the nearest future, potentially leading to speeds that exceed the ambitious 13000 MT/s mark.
