Probably used the new TridentZ DDR4 4500MHz CL16. That would be my guess.
But is that really that much achievement? At shops are available ram sticks with clocks over 4000MHz at stock so i'm not sure if overclocking a bit over 5000MHz is something so special. Can someone enlighten me? What were stock clocks of these overclocked sticks?

Hi!
The problem is that in system usage (games and applications) this higher speeds not give you a real increase of performance... since the most important talking about performance is the latency.
Its just to records purposes.

It's already been mentioned but a also believe that breaking latency timings would be more of an achievement, especially for gaming where i suppose latency is far more important than 5000+Mhz speeds.
Give me some 4000+ @ 9-9-9-27 and then i'd be impressed.
