G.Skill introduced two new high-performance DDR5 memory kits aimed at Intel platforms, one focusing on high-performance paired with high-capacity and the other centered around low-latency performance. Its new DDR5-6800 CL32 spec comes with a 96GB capacity and the other is a DDR5-6400 CL32 spec featuring a 32GB capacity.

G.Skill's new DDR5-6800 spec will come in 2x16GB, 2x24GB, 2x32GB, and 2x48GB dual-channel configurations featuring CL32-42-42 primary timings. The new kit will be available in Trident Z5 Royal, Trident Z5 RGB, and Ripjaws M5 RGB flavors. The new spec has been validated for Intel Z790 and Z890 platforms (for now). The new 96GB kit is G.Skill's fastest DDR5 memory kit to date sporting such a massive capacity. Its previous fastest 96GB DDR5 memory kits toped out at DDR5-6800 boasting CL34-46-46-108 sub-timings

    When will we see 64 GB UDIMMs? Some motherboards got support for them over a year ago.

    These new "multiples of 3" capacities are really playing with my head

    I'd love a 192GB kit, but apparently only Corsair seems to be doing that lately.

    Micron and SK Hynix still only list 16Gb and 24Gb memory IC. Samsung does list 32Gb but it's in a non-standard configuration and only sampling as opposed to mass production. Given that it's been over a year since Samsung announced 32Gb IC and there's still nothing in mass production it's a safe bet not soon.

    I'd love to know what the holdup is since not only does it enable 64GB UDIMMs but single rank 32GB as well.
