Ryan Martin / 13 years ago
HWBot member Christian Ney has successfully managed to break the world record for DDR3 RAM frequency which was previously held by a Romanian overclocking team using Kingston HyperX RAM. Managing to push his G.Skill RAM to 3737MHz with latency timings of CL 11 13 13 36, the extreme overclock was done using LN2 cooling (liquid nitrogen) which kept the RAM modules at -197 degrees under load. The system used was as follows:
RAM: G.Skill 4GB DDR3 RipJaws
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-A75-UD4H
CPU: AMD Llano A8-3870K at 1.6GHz (8 x 400)
GPU: Voodoo3 2000 PCI
HDD: 60GB Vertex II SSD SF-1200 Controller
PSU: X-Series 750W
