Overclocking
Disclaimer: Overclocking is never guaranteed, so the results may vary depending on certain conditions and various hardware configurations. I am not recommending overclocking if you do not know what you are doing. High voltages may damage hardware, and the warranty will not cover it.
Crucial CUDIMM uses Micron IC, which does not overclock as high as Hynix but is still better than Samsung. The clock driver helps to achieve higher frequencies, and we could reach 7600MT/s instead of 7000MT/s on the Crucial Pro Overclocking series. The tested memory kit worked fine at more than 1.35V VDD/VDDQ but wasn’t scaling well past 1.40V, so we left it at lower voltages.
Below is the 7600MT/s result, the highest result we have seen on Micron IC.
Regardless of voltages, it wasn’t possible to set CL32 at 6000MT/s+.The only recommended alternative is DDR5-6400 CL34-38-38 1.40V, the same as in the 6000MT/s or 6400MT/s Pro Overclocking kits reviewed some months ago.
The Crucial CUDIMM definitely has high-quality memory and better overclocks than the Crucial UDIMM. However, it’s still not the fastest option on the market, so the price is a significant factor. We can’t currently count on a low cost, but I hope it will be adjusted soon.
