G.Skill sETS DDR5 WR With Overclocked DDR5-8888 RAM
G.Skill and Asus have teamed together once again to set a new world record for DDR5 overclocking. Under extreme liquid nitrogen cooling, the Trident Z5 memory reached DDR5-8888.
(25 January 2022) – G.SKILL International Enterprise Co., Ltd., the world’s leading manufacturer of extreme performance memory and gaming peripherals, is thrilled to announce the achievement of a new overclocking world record for fastest memory frequency at DDR5-8888 CL88-88-88-88, in cooperation with ASUS. This amazing frequency speed was achieved by the extreme overclocker “lupin_no_musume” with G.SKILL Trident Z5 DDR5 memory, ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 APEX motherboard, and Intel® Core™ i9-12900K processor.

DDR5-8888 CL88-88-88-88 – Pushing the Speed to the Limit
At the dawn of the DDR5 era, G.SKILL and ASUS have been constantly exploring the memory speed limitations of the latest Intel Z690 platform. Surpassing the previous DDR5-8704 world record in November 2021, a new memory frequency world record is achieved at DDR5-8888 under liquid nitrogen extreme cooling. The memory speed has been validated by CPU-Z. Please refer to the screenshot and validation link below: https://valid.x86.fr/qgvylc
“We are very excited to collaborate with the ASUS ROG team to break the DDR5 frequency world record at DDR5-8888 with our best-in-class hardware,” says Tequila Huang, Corporate Vice President of G.SKILL International. “This demonstrates the unparalleled overclocking potential of DDR5, and we will continue to dedicate effort into developing faster DDR5 memory for overclockers and PC enthusiasts.”

world record in cl latency

doesn't such a high latency completely negate the bump in bandwidth other than a few applications that prefer bandwidth over latency the only time i see this being very beneficial is for and APU/IGPU.

That´s an effective Cl latency of 19.80ns
An average kit of DDR5 4800 CL38, has an effective latency of 15ns.
So although it´s a high latency value, it´s not that much higher.
Besides, this is just to show of high memory clock speed. Timings don´t matter.
