frequency ranges. At DDR4-3000 C14 for example, the
process of testing might only produce one memory kit per
10000 ICs tested (educated guess) - and then the modules
have to be tweaked to ensure they run together. We always
recommend buying a single kit for a PC, especially of high
speed memory, because the modules are designed to work
together, whereas two separate kits hold no guarantee,
especially if the secondary and tertiary sub-timings are
close to the grain (typically these are slightly loosened for
larger kits).
At present both Corsair and G. Skill market their 16 GB
DDR4-3000 memory modules as solutions for overclockers
because highest JEDEC data rate validated by Intel’s
Haswell-E processors is 2133 MT/s. As JEDEC’s DDR4
memory standard supports data-rates up to 3200 MT/s,
eventually we might see high-speed 16 GB+ memory sticks
becoming normal for workstations with memory speedlimited
workloads.

CES 2016: ASRock Shows mini-STX 5x5 for
Business and Education (2)
Ever since Intel announced their
5x5 platform (that’s 5-inch by 5-
inch), we have had several
requests from users saying ‘when?’.
