Let’s face it though, 6,666MHz is amazingly fast and one can only wonder just how much further this can go on the DDR4 platform! Call me a cynic though, but I’d like to see more people pushing for high-scores without the LN2 cooling!

What do you think? Are you impressed with this new record? How far do you think DDR4 can be pushed? In addition, what do you think we can expect from DDR5? – Let us know in the comments!
