5000 MHz DDR4 memory DIMMs for Ryzen 3000 from Corsair (priced $1225)

5000 MHz DDR4 memory DIMMs for Ryzen 3000 from Corsair (priced $1225)

Corsair announced a new kit of its Vengeance LPX DDR4 Memory, becoming the first commercially available high-frequency DRAM to break the 5,000MHz barrier. This Micron-based memory is available now in a 2x 8GB kit, reaching its full potential in select MSI X570 motherboards running 3rd Gen AMD Ryzen Desktop Processors.

Vengeance LPX once again sets a new milestone in the world of performance memory, continuing to deliver on its long-standing tradition of excellence thanks to the partnership between Corsair, MSI, and AMD. The new modules have been specifically designed and fully tested to achieve their record-breaking maximum frequency of 5,000MHz on the Ryzen 3000 platform in MSI MEG X570 GODLIKE, MSI MEG X570 ACE, MSI MEG X570 UNIFY, and PRESTIGE X570 CREATION motherboards using their included automated overclocking utilities.

An included optional Vengeance Airflow Fan directly cools the memory modules to ensure their high-frequency performance even when running at the most demanding settings.

“Pushing the limits of performance DRAM is a constant focus for us,” said Reimar Goetze, Senior Manager of Memory Products at Corsair. “With the help of key partners such as MSI and AMD, we are thrilled to stay at the forefront of the industry with another record-setting launch.”

“This impressive feat is only made possible with the highest quality components, such as our latest X570 motherboards and Vengeance LPX memory,” said Ted Hung of MSI, Computing and Display Business Unit General Manager. “We are always driven to break the barriers of what is possible, and Corsair has proven to be a great partner in helping us achieve that.”

This lovely kit has one drawback ... care to spend $1,224.99 USD ?

Der8auer did a test with Gigabyte branded 5000 GHz DDR4 Ram sticks in combination with a Ryzen 3900x and the conclusion was that it wasn't really worth the money for a typical gamer setup. There were some benefits for heavily memory bound applications, but that was about it.
