Back To Back DDR5 Speed World Records: Sergmann Breaks Saltycroissant’s Newly Made Record By Pushing To 13,530 MT/s

Popular overclocker Sergmann beats Saltycroissant in a DDR5 overclocking competition the same day and takes back his crown for achieving the highest speed on his DDR5 memory.

Last week's CENS record has officially been broken by a prominent overclocker, Saltycroissant, who has been at the top of the leaderboard many times. We thought it would be difficult to break the CENS DDR5 13,322 MT/s world record, but it just took a single week for another overclocker to break it with a much higher transfer speed. CENS did bring a bigger jump vs the previous world record holders, but Saltycroissant brought a similar one.

As seen on , Saltycroissant achieved 6703.9 MHz or 13,407 MT/s DDR5 speed using the Corsair Vengeance 24 GB module installed on the GIGABYTE Z890 AORUS Tachyon ICE. This shouldn't be surprising since Tachyon ICE is the most popular enthusiast-grade motherboard for memory overclocking and appears the most in the top 10 memory frequency results. With a nitrogen cooling setup, the overclocker crossed the 13,400 MT/s mark, bringing a solid 85 MT/s increase over the previous world record.

Slowly moving toward 7000, Thx to Corsair (DDR5 Vengeance) /Gigabyte (Z890 Tachyon ICE) / Splave (SplaveOne paste). And special thx to Hicookie, Sofos and Serg!!!

The CL timings are unchanged, and we have the same CL68-127-127-127-2 timings, but with a slightly higher UCLK: MCLK ratio of 3:196 than before. This is generally higher in such world records as achieving an incredibly high memory speed at low UCLK: MCLK ratios is currently unfeasible due to stability issues. But Sergmann was able to reduce it to 3:192 with his official new world record by pushing his DDR5 memory to an incredible 6765.2 MHz or 13,530 MT/s, the same day as spotted on .

The setup included the same Corsair Vengeance memory and the same Z890 Tachyon ICE board, but the CPU was Core Ultra 9 285K while Saltycroissant used the Core Ultra 7 265K. We are now convinced that achieving 14,000 MT/s is totally possible, but let's see who does it first.
