PNY Performance DDR5 4800MHz Desktop Memory is built for speed and overclocking

PNY announced its new Functioning DDR5 4800MHz Desktop Retention today. DDR5 supports higher density modules up to four times faster than previous generations per module. It besides allows memory modules to reach higher frequency speeds. PNY Performance retentivity will start at 16GB per module and have a frequency of 4800MHz.

DDR5 modules operate at 1.1 volts and feature on-dice ECC back up to increase efficiency. PNY explains that while DDR4 memory relies on the motherboard to handle voltage conversion, DDR5 supports on-module conversion. This results in lower voltage wear and less noise. On-module power management also has higher headroom for overclocking and voltage adjustments.

Intel's Alder Lake CPUs will be the company's first to support DDR5. They're set to make it in late 2022. PNY predicts that DDR5 will probable overtake DDR4 in popularity past 2023.

"We're excited to add cutting-edge DDR5 applied science to our product portfolio," says PNY. While we are launching our first DDR5 models in the Operation line, we will too be supporting gamers, content creators, and enthusiasts in their on-going quest for PC performance by launching models under our XLR8 Gaming brand. These models volition characteristic higher frequency speeds, ambitious out-of-the-box overclocking, stylish heat spreaders and RGB illumination.

Motherboard manufacturers will be able to examination PNY XLR8 Gaming DDR5 4800MHz Desktop Retention in Q3 2022. PNY expects the modules to get into mass production in the fourth quarter of 2022. The modules will be available through Amazon, All-time Buy, and PNY.
