While the DDR5 figures here are not exactly mind-blowing, remember that these are expected to be entry-level Z690 motherboards. – You do, however, have to put this into perspective. Particularly since we’ve already heard rumours from other manufacturers of 8,000MHz models. – So, no, 60 are not overly impressive numbers for the max pre-set overclocking potential of DDR5. – Secondly, the four motherboards listed here are, basically, from their entry-level tier/s and, as such, will clearly not represent the most potent capabilities of DDR5. Firstly, for those of you unaware, many manufacturers are expected to release Z690 motherboards that will be compatible with both DDR4 and DDR5 memory (although clearly not together on the same hardware). Now, we should note that the information provided does come with a number of caveats. Just how good is this going to be on the launch Z690 motherboard platforms though? Well, following a report via TechPowerUp, information has leaked online citing the maximum supported overclock speeds for many of ASUS’s upcoming models! ASUS DDR5 Z690 Max Memory OC Specs Leaked With the upcoming launch of Intel’s new Alder Lake-S processors, one of the key new featured expected on the platform will be the consumer introduction of the DDR5 memory platform.
