SK Hynix launches first DDR5 DRAM modules


Recommended Posts

The Korean semiconductor giant announced back on November 28, 2018, the development of the world's first 16 Gigabit (Gb) DDR5 DRAM. The company says its DDR5 supports speeds between 4,800 MHz and 5,600 MHz, making it around 1.8 times faster than most standard, non-overclocked DDR4 kits.

Nice. I agree with you on that, I am not upgrading any of my rig until the new DDR standard has hit the consumer market. Right now there is not need for me to be on the bleeding edge, so I can wait it out. Those speeds however are juicy, considering an architecture like Zen gets a healthy boost from RAM speeds, I can imagine the future Zen CPU's that release alongside DDR5 will eat this up.

I thought about waiting this out till Zen 4 or whatever next platform supposedly has DDR5 support. But I am struggling running newer games at 1440p on my current 4790k / 980 platform so I think I'll just bite the bullet with Zen 3 and RDNA2/Ampere. Besides it will be expensive when it first releases, so I am ok not being on that bleeding edge.

Yea you're still on ddr3 so it would be tough to wait that long.
