TeamAU’s YoungPro Achieves Crazy DDR3-4400 Overclock with G.SKILL TridentX Memory

I don’t always get floored by a new memory clock world record, but when I do, it tends to have G.SKILL’s name behind it. Such is true with the latest achievement, made possible by TeamAU’s YoungPro. Using a DDR3-3000 kit of G.SKILL’s TridentX memory, YoungPro managed to push the frequency to a ridiculous 2,202MHz – aka: DDR3-4400 (or 4404 if you really care for accuracy).

Unfortunately, no voltage information was given, but on account of the fact that this overclock involved a super-tight (for that frequency) CAS latency of 13, we can only imagine that it was sky-high. Not surprisingly, this overclock was achieved by using just one stick of memory, as is typical of these world-record attempts.

To put this into perspective, the #2 highest frequency at CPU-Z is the work of Lin222, Planet and Nick Shih, who achieved DDR3-4290 at this year’s Computex with Corsair memory. There, a CAS latency of 14 was used, making the above overclock all the more impressive.
