HEXUS previously announced a new system RAM standard for consumer PCs (which will also be introduced to AMD platforms in 2022), but now all the major PC RAM module vendors have taken the wraps off their first products.

Today I’m focusing on Corsair, G.Skill and Kingston Fury DDR5 products as these companies have contacted me to outline their latest DDR5 products and kits. They also represent a good choice on the market, and we have previous generations of PC desktop RAM from all these manufacturers in the HEXUS Labs.

In the run-up to last night’s Intel event, I saw G.Skill put out a press release about: DDR5-6400CL36 memory kit, then the “world’s fastest DDR5-6600CL36 Trident Z5 Memory Kit” just a week ago. Today, it announced a blazing-fast DDR5 memory kit priced at DDR5-6800CL38 32GB (2x16GB), “Designed for the latest 12th Generation Intel Core desktop processors and Intel Z690 chipset motherboards.”

As usual, G.Skill has omitted information on pricing and availability; it’s fair to say these speedy kits come at a premium.
