The pre-programmed timings and frequencies can be also found by using AIDA64; the DRAM IC manufacturer is listed as SK hynix:
As you have probably noted from the first screenshot, these modules do not come with a pre-loaded XMP profile, so the motherboard will automatically go for the most compatible timing set after the first boot-up. Our Z690 CLASSIFIED from EVGA went for the tightest timings involving the 4800MHz frequency, which are 40-40-40-76; we then went ahead and tested with TM5 the stability:
Naturally, we then went ahead and checked out how far we can go and in order to be on the safe temperature/stability side, we upped the voltage to a maximum of 1.25V as well; 5200MHz was perfectly doable, at the exact same timings!
We were quite surprised to see that the 5400MHz test has passed as well:
Well, this is interesting…the kit was marketed at 4800MHz but can do 5600 this easy?
To our surprise, at the stock clocks 5800MHz was perfectly doable as well:
This is a new one! 4800MHz-rated kit running 6000MHz fully stable at stock timings…there you have it:
6000MHz was quite an impressive end of the road, because with 6200MHz we started having issues booting up.
