Patriot is celebrating its 40th anniversary in style with the unveiling of its new Viper Xtreme 5 40 Years RGB memory at CES 2025, available in up to 8000 MT/s speeds and in up to 48GB kits.

The new Patriot Viper Xtreme 5 40 Years RGB memory has extreme DDR5 performance and overclocking capabilities, speeds of up to 8000 MT/s and 48GB kits, with a special 40 years edition heatshield. We were on the ground with Patriot at CES 2025 with a snap of that gorgeous memory and 40 years edition heatshield in the picture above.

Patriot has RGB sync with ASUS, ASRock, GIGABYTE, and MSI apps as well as the Viper exclusive RGB 3.0 and Signal RGB apps, ready to tweak the lighting on your Viper Xtreme 5 40 Years RRGB memory.

Patiotr unleashed its flagship Viper Xtreme 5 CKD memory at CES 2025, with 48GB kits (2 x 24GB sticks) running DDR5-9600 speeds at 46-58-58-154 latencies using the Intel Core Ultra 9 285K in Gear 4 mode. Check it out:

The company is celebrating its massive 40th birthday, with the new Patriot Viper Xtreme 5 CKD memory featuring extreme DDR5 performance and overclocking capabilities, speeds of up to 9600 MT/s, and capacities of up to 48GB. The company will provide a special silver edition heatshield, uses high-quality CKD, and an exclusive thermal pad for cooling the PMIC.

Patriot designed its new Viper Xtreme 5 CKD memory for gamers and performance users who are after pure, uncompromising power. The ultra-fast speeds of up to 9600 MT/s mixed with CKD-equipped stability, meet the rigorous demands of high-performance systems. Patriot adds that this non-RGB solution "focuses on delivering raw computational power with precision engineering".

BIWIN has shown off an incredible feat today: 192GB of DDR5-6400 CL28 memory running on an AMD X870E motherboard. Impressive stuff, check it out:

The company has announced that it has successfully completed a burn-in test using DDR5-6400 CL28 memory in a gigantic 192GB kit (4 x 48GB sticks). The company provided a screenshot for proof, but you'd think they'd be able to upload a higher-resolution image considering we're on the tail end of 2024, but I digress.

BIWIN was using an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X processor with 16 cores and 32 threads, with the CPU and RAM installed onto an MSI X870E motherboard. MSI was the first company with support for 192GB of DDR5-6400, so we're probably looking at a collaboration between MSI and BIWIN here.

COLORFUL has just teased its new iGame Shadow DDR5 memory kits, available in speeds of DDR5-6400 with latencies at CL28, while faster DDR5-8000 memory is available with latencies at CL40.

The company is making a few different kits, with the new iGame Shadow DDR5 memory available in 6000, and 6800 MT/s speeds. The new COLORFUL iGame Shadow DDR5-6000 RAM comes in a 32GB kit at those 6000 MT/s speeds, but you get that ultra-low CL28 latency. The next kit up from there is the 32GB DDR5-6800 kit, with CL32 latencies, and up from there, there's a 48GB kit (2 x 24GB sticks) with 6800 MT/s speeds and CL34 latencies.

COLORFUL says its new iGame DDR5 memory can be pushed to 6400 MT/s speeds with CL28, while CL28 is the default latency for 6000 MT/s speeds, however with some manual overclocking and AMD EXPO enabled, 400 MT/s more can be achieved without the latency increasing.

Lexar has just unveiled its new ARES DDR5-6000 CL26 memory, with its ultra-low latency said to be "ideal for 9800X3D". Check it out:

The new Lexar ARES DDR5-6000 CL26 ultra-low latency memory has an ultra-low timing delay as low as 55ns, which the company says "the lower the timing, the smaller the delay, and the more significant the 1% low frame improvements in the game. This fast response capability allows players to enjoy more stable picture performance at critical moments, reduce lags and frame rate fluctuations, and gain a competitive advantage".

We can expect not just improvements in the 1% FPS average, but also an overall 10% improvement in performance with the new ARES DDR5-6000 CL26 memory compared to the CL30 memory already on teh market.

Samsung Electronics has successfully completed the development of its groundbreaking 400-layer NAND technology, announcing the news at its Semiconductor Research Institute.

The South Korean giant has started transferring its new advanced technology to the mass production line of its Plant 1 at its Pyeongtaek campus, which started last month. In a new report from Business Korea, we're learning that this significant milestone positions Samsung at the forefront of the NAND flash technology business.

SK hynix recently unveiled that it has started mass production of its 321-layer NAND, but Samsung is a larger step ahead of their South Korean rival with its new 400-layer NAND. Samsung plans to provide details on its new 1Tb 400-layer triple-level cell (TLC) NAND at the International Solid-State Conference (ISSCC) 2025 which will be held in the US in February 2025.

ASRock has just shown off DDR5 memory overclocking on its Z890 Taichi OCF motherboard, passing 10,000 MT/s with regular ait cooling and at ambient room temperatures.

We've already seen ASRock's new Z890 Taichi OCF motherboard used by professional overclockers reaching speeds of 12,666 MT/s but it required much more cooling, and now we have overclocker Nick Shih at HKEPC hardware achieving a world record for dual-DIMM memory overclocking. This is the first time that dual-rank memory has been used to surpass the 10,000 MT/s barrier.

Room temperature, no dedicated cooling on the DDR5 DIMMs (which were v-color Manta Xfinity RGB DDR5 memory modules) on the ASRock Z890 Taichi OCF motherboard. The 48GB kit of DDR5 (2 x 24GB sticks) were running at 5066MHz each, or 10133MT/s speeds.

The release of Intel's new Core Ultra desktop processors has been a world record season for overclockers pushing DDR5 memory frequencies to insane new heights. In the past month or so, we've seen the record broken at least five times, and today it's two-time OC Champion of the G.SKILL OC World Cup and the Number 1 ranked overclocker on HWBOT, Splave's turn.

With G.SKILL Trident Z5 DDR5 memory, the incredible ASRock Z890 Taichi OCF motherboard, Intel Core Ultra 9 285K CPU, and what we're assuming is lots of liquid nitrogen (LN2) cooling, Splave managed to break the world record with an impressive speed of DDR5-12666.

Splave's world record memory frequency score is currently in first place at HWBOT, and it will be fascinating to see if it will stand the test of time.

Corsair has just officially announced its new Vengeance RGB DDR5 CUDIMM memory modules, available in up to 96GB capacities and speeds (at first) of up to 9600 MT/s.

The company has engineered its new Vengeance RGB DDR5 CUDIMM memory modules for optimal performance with Intel's latest Core Ultra 200 series "Arrow Lake-S" processors and flagship Z890 motherboards while maintaining backward compatibility with earlier DDR5 motherboards.

Corsair is selling its new Vengeance RGB DDR5 CUDIMM memory in kits of 48GB and 96GB, with the 48GB kits (2 x 24GB sticks) coming in 8000, 8200, 8400, and 8800 MT/s with varying latencies depending on the kit (CL38, CL40, CL42, and CL44, respectively).

TEAMGROUP's gaming division T-FORCE has just unveiled its new XTREEM CKD DDR5-8800 CU-DIMM memory in a huge 48GB kit, with an OC hitting 9600 MT/s speeds. Check out the new DIMMs:

The new TEAMGROUP T-FORCE XTREEM CKD DDR5-8800 CUDIMM memory has been designed with an advanced Client Clock Driver, and with speeds hitting 9600 MT/s, the company says its new memory module "redefines overclocking potential with the groundbreaking CUDIMM platform, delivering exceptional performance and setting new industry milestones".

TEAMGROUP's new T-FORCE XTREEM CKD DDR5 has been designed for stability at an "exclusive frequency" of 9600 MT/s on 2 DIMM motherboards. The company is using a premium 2 mm-thick aluminium alloy heat spreader and high thermal conductivity silicone, it significantly improves heat dissipation by 10%. The company explains its "CNC cutting technology, matte sandblasting, and black anodizing processes create a refined, understated aesthetic. Paired with the iconic T-FORCE logo, it offers gamers a product combining high performance and premium design".
