G.Skill's new DDR5-9600 CUDIMM sticks can achieve DDR5-10000 speeds on air cooling
You'll need supported motherboards, of course
What just happened? G.Skill just unleashed its Trident Z5 CK and Trident Z5 CK RGB DDR5 RAM designed specifically for Intel's freshly launched Core Ultra 200 processors and Z890 chipset motherboards. The headliner is that these sleek memory sticks are rated for a blistering DDR5-9600 straight out of the box.

How Much VRAM is Enough for PC Gaming?
Graphics card memory, or VRAM, has been a hot topic of discussion as of late because we're not getting enough of it. Here's our latest testing of GPUs and VRAM capacity at 8GB, 12GB and 16GB.
DRAM and VRAM pricing expected to climb in Q3, you can thank server demand for that
In context: Demand for GPUs and other AI accelerators isn't expected to decrease anytime soon, and the cost of DRAM will be directly influenced by the strong "generative bubble" we are experiencing right now. Market intelligence company TrendForce has made some estimations for the third quarter of the year, and, unsurprisingly, prices are going up.
