Asgard has introduced the Thor DDR5 CUDIMM memory kit with unprecedented high speed performance. The new memory kit is capable of operating at speeds up to 9600 MT/s and significantly exceeds the capabilities of previous high-speed DDR5 modules.

The secret to Thor DDR5’s high performance is that these are CUDIMM (Clocked Unbuffered Dual In-Line Memory Module) modules. Unlike regular DIMMs, the latest CUDIMMs feature their own clock generator, which regenerates the clock signal, increasing stability at high frequencies, which allows the memory modules to reach higher frequencies. “The clock generator on Thor DDR5 memory modules eliminates bottlenecks by improving signal transfer between the processor and DRAM,” the company says. This is what makes Thor DDR5 the fastest DDR5 RAM kit available today.
The demo showed that the Asgard Thor memory kit operates at 4800 MT/s, which, given the Intel processors running in 2:1 mode, corresponds to an effective speed of 9600 MT/s. In the CPU-z utility window, you can see all the necessary information about the Asgard Thor memory, including the DRAM manufacturer (SK hynix) and the CAS Latency value of CL44.

It’s important to note that DDR5 9600 MT/s performance at CL44 timings is roughly equivalent to DDR5-6400 at CL30 timings. This is an impressive result that provides both high speed and high bandwidth. Asgard claims that the new memory is compatible with the latest AMD and Intel platforms, which are capable of supporting much higher frequencies than their predecessors. Interestingly, the memory kit was running in Gear 2 mode during the demo, but the motherboard and processor used were not specified.
With support for Intel XMP, Asgard Thor memory will be able to automatically apply optimized settings and operate at a voltage of only 1.5 V. The company also emphasizes that it uses third-generation chips that comply with JEDEC standards, guaranteeing better compatibility and reliability on new platforms. Thor DDR5 will be available in two color options: Polar Night (black) and Silver Lightning.
