Micron Memory Sets New DDR4 Overclocking World Record
May 16 2019 - 11:01AM
Ballistix®, Micron’s leading global brand of gaming memory, today
announced that its Elite DDR4 3600MT/s memory was used to set a new
overclocking world record for the fastest DDR4 memory frequency at
5726MT/s. The world record was set on May 13, 2019 by Stavros
Savvopoulos and Phil Strecker, members of the Overclocked Gaming
Systems (OGS) team, using liquid nitrogen (LN2) cooling and the
following system set-up:
- Intel® i7-8086K CPU
- ASUS® Maximus XI Apex Motherboard
- Ballistix Elite 3600MT/s 8GB module
The record-breaking frequency is posted on HWBOT and the
valid CPU-Z screenshot can be found here.
“We were blown away by how surprisingly easy it was to overclock
these Ballistix Elite DDR4 3600MT/s modules. Other modules we’ve
overclocked can be temperamental and need to train at temperatures
lower than the one required for stability; but we didn’t experience
that with Micron’s E-die, which scaled much better with both
extreme voltages and temperatures,” explained Savvopoulos.
“Overall, it was easy enough to call the whole experience plug and
play!”
“Breaking this world record reinforces our commitment to the
enthusiast community. Our Ballistix product lineup provides the
high-speed, low-latency and overclock headroom that gamers, content
creators, and enthusiasts crave,” said Teresa Kelley, Vice
President of Micron’s Consumer Products Group. “We will
continue to focus on offering an exceptional high-performance
memory and storage portfolio, with Micron, Crucial, and Ballistix
engineers striving to deliver leading-edge technology that
redefines the performance boundary.”
Ballistix Elite DDR4 3600MT/s modules are available in 8GB
single modules and kits up to 32GB and can be purchased at
Crucial.com, Amazon.com, or through select global channel partners.
Ballistix DDR4 memory is Intel XMP-ready and has been optimized for
