Memory specialist Team Group has announced that it has prepared the first industrial DDR5-5600 memory modules. In its blurb, the firm claims that the new memory modules are a good match for next-gen platforms like “Intel Raptor Lake and AMD Raphael-X.” What makes this particularly interesting is that AMD hasn’t formally announced Raphael-X processors –…
Intel’s upcoming Raptor Lake architecture will support both DDR4 and DDR5 memory standards, according to a leaked list of in-development ASRock Z790 and H770 motherboards obtained by Videocardz. The list, which is not exhaustive, names 12 Z790 and H770 models, including four DDR4 variants, that are allegedly in active development. By supporting both DDR4 and…
When Tachyum unveiled the concept of its Prodigy Universal Processor at Hot Chips 18, it made quite a splash with a chip designed to run any code using a dynamic binary translator. It demonstrated high performance when executing both native and translated code. It took the company a while to design the actual hardware, taking pre-orders…
Ampere Computing on Thursday said that it had begun sampling its next-generation Ampere One processors for servers with select customers. The new CPUs utilize the company’s in-house developed custom cores and bring support for DDR5 and PCIe 5.0 interfaces. In addition, the chip will feature the 5nm process technology, and the main intrigue is how…
If you’re thinking of going all-in on the latest RAM standard then you already know it’s pretty pricey. Well, we’ve spotted some recent reductions in the overall price of DDR5 as it becomes a little more mainstream and today we have 32GBs of GeIL Polaris RGB Sync DDR5 (5200MHz) RAM for $279 at Newegg. Also…
Gigabyte Team overclocker HiCookie has achieved a new DDR5 speed world record. Using a single 16GB stick of Aorus branded DDR5 RGB memory, HiCookie hit and verified 5,011 MHz, or DDR5-10022 (10,022 MT/s). This is just a smidgeon faster than MSI Team chalked up in a milestone achievement earlier in the week, but a record…
MSI Gaming Overclocking Team member Kovan Yang has managed to coax a stick of DDR5 to achieve DDR5-10004. In a system packing an Intel Core i9-12900KS, fixed to an MSI MEG Z690 Unify-X motherboard, Yang pushed a single 16GB stick of Kingston Fury Beast DDR5 RAM to 5,001.8 MHz (10,004 MT/s, DDR5-10004). Perhaps surprisingly, Kingston…
(Image credit: AMD) All signs indicate that AMD’s next-gen AM5 socket platforms that will house the 5nm Ryzen 7000 ‘Raphael’ processors will only support DDR5 memory when they arrive later this year, but it isn’t official. However, we have now confirmed through multiple sources in the supply chain that the X670 and B650 AM5 platforms…
Twitter user iGPU Extremist recently shared photographs of Dell’s upcoming Precision 7670 laptop. Unfortunately, it would seem that Dell has developed a proprietary form factor for DDR5 memory, which the company has baptized as the Compression Attached Memory Module (CAMM). So the upgrade path is still there, but only through Dell. The objective behind CAMM…
DDR5 memory was introduced to the market last November and the technology is still in its infancy. This week AMD and Samsung held a webinar discussing the future of DDR5 and LPDDR5X types of SDRAM as well as AMD’s platforms supporting these types of memory. Among the topics discussed were AMD’s Raphael desktop platform overclocking, Samsung’s DDR5-6400…
