Lexar Breaks The 6000 MT/s Barrier And Launches CXMT-Based DDR5 RAM Kits With Up To 7600 MT/s Speed

The 6000 MT/s limit doesn't exist anymore, and with Lexar's newest DDR5 memory kits, users an enjoy higher clock speeds.

CXMT (ChangXin Memory Technologies) has made great progress in pushing its memory chips to boast higher transfer speeds. Unlike previously, when the CXMT-based DDR5 RAM kits could only push to 6000 MT/s , newer memory kits have unlocked faster speeds.

Popular memory maker Lexar has launched its latest DDR5 memory kits, adopting CXMT DDR5 memory chips. This time, the company has aimed for a much higher frequency than before, offering speeds of up to 7600 MT/s at CL38. This marks a significant leap over previous CXMT-based memory products that were limited to 6000 MT/s.

The development comes shortly after MSI announced that it has successfully pushed CXMT-based DDR5 memory kits to 8000 MT/s on AMD platforms. That said, the CPU-Z shows the new CXMT-based Lexar memory module can push to 7600 MT/s with CL38 at 1.4V. The report from IT Home claims that Lexar plans to introduce these modules under the THOR RGB DDR5 "THOR II" series and should be available in two flavors: DDR5-7600 CL38 and DDR5-7200 CL38.

The memory kits will be available in a 32 GB configuration, offering a dual-channel arrangement using two 16 GB DDR5 memory modules. The higher frequencies indicate continued progress in the maturity of CXMT's DDR5 DRAM chips. Until now, the Chinese DRAM manufacturers have primarily targeted the mainstream memory speeds, while premium overclocking kits have largely relied on the three giants, i.e., Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron.
