GIGABYTE has announced that a new DDR5 world record has been set, and its Z890 AORUS TACHYON ICE motherboard was the baseline of that achievement.
Achieved by well-known overclocker ‘saltycroissant’, he used a pair of CORSAIR Vengeance DDR5 RAM together with the aforementioned mobo and managed to hit the jaw-dropping 12,920 MT/s figure.
The Z890 AORUS TACHYON ICE is designed heavily from the ground up for hardcore overclockers, packing a beefy all-digital 18+1+2 power design to keep things stable at insane speeds, and they added all the “nice to have” things enthusiasts love: shortcut keys, toggle switches, and voltage read points for fine-tuned control. But as always, if you want to perform at the very top of the spectrum, you gotta have all the little nitty-gritty to be the very best.
