G.Skill has officially announced the availability of its extreme speed DDR5-8000 Trident Z5 memory kits which start at $529.99 US.

G.Skill Goes Extreme With Its Premium DDR5-8000 Trident Z5 Memory Kits For Enthusiasts

This particular Trident Z5 memory kit from G.Skill is rated at DDR5-8000 and features CL38 timings (38-48-48-128) with a voltage rating of 1.45V and capacities of 32 GB (16 GB per DIMM). This kit is a dual-channel solution and is optimized for Intel's Z790 platform and 13th Gen Raptor Lake CPUs. I was told that the kit was only validated on the ASUS ROG Maximus Z790 APEX motherboard which makes sense since this kit is designed purely for overclockers and enthusiasts and the APEX right now is the best motherboard when it comes to memory overclocking.

The DDR5-8000 transfer speed alone is a 66.6% boost over the Native JEDEC speeds which are rated at just DDR5-4800.Overclockers have been pushing DDR5 kits above 10,000 Mbps but with these kits, we can see even higher world records. You can find the kits at the following retail links:
