Ahead of its launch, some of the first pictures of G.Skill Memory's Trident Z5 CK series DDR5 CUDIMMs leaked to the web. The "CK" brand extension is used to denote CUDIMMs, or DDR5 DIMMs with a client clock-driver (CKD) component. The CKD is a component that acts like a filter to the memory physical-layer digital waveform, "clearing up" the memory eyes at high memory clocks. This enables higher DDR5 speeds upward of 8000 MT/s, although CUDIMMs can also be found at speeds as low as 6400 MT/s. Intel considers DDR5-8000 the "sweetspot" memory speed for its Core Ultra "Arrow Lake-S" desktop processors, which means 8000 MT/s should be possible in Gear 2 mode, and future memory kits with speeds in excess of 10000 MT/s should be possible with Gear 4.
