G.SKILL Achieves DDR5 Memory Frequency Overclock World Record at DDR5-12872 with French Overclocker bl4ckdot
G.SKILL International Enterprise Co., Ltd., the world's leading brand of performance overclock memory, is thrilled to announce that renowned French extreme overclocker, bl4ckdot, has set a new overclocking world record for fastest DDR5 memory frequency at DDR5-12872. This incredible frequency record was achieved with one 24 GB module of G.SKILL Trident Z5 DDR5 memory, built with high-performance SK hynix DDR5 ICs, running on the ASUS ROG Maximus Z890 Apex motherboard and Intel Core Ultra 9 285K desktop processor under extreme liquid nitrogen (LN2) cooling.
This remarkable milestone surpassed previous memory frequency records and marks another achievement in the pursuit of extreme memory overclocking. The score is validated on both HWBOT and CPU-Z. Please refer to the following pages for more details.

We had DDR3L and similar names, where it was obvious the L Suffix it is something else.
If you enable the CKD chip, the cold bug of the stick is around -40°C, which is very limiting for trying such record. Secondly the CUDIMM pcb isn't as good as some of the UDIMM pcb for such high frequency.
