Crucial Ballistix Max break the 7GHz barrier

Overclocking is an increasingly widespread practice that seeks to improve system performance. For the common man, it is to improve the CPU and GPU frequency a bit and get some extra performance. Although there are overclockers specialized in great feats, such as BABY-J, a Chinese overclocker that has taken Crucial Ballistix Max up to 7.004,2MHz.

Although this mark may seem irrelevant, it is an indicator of the quality of Micron's DDR4 memory. And it is that Crucial, in case you did not know, is the memory trademark of Micron, one of the most important DRAM chip manufacturers in the world. Also indicate that Micron is one of the manufacturers that seems to be ready to manufacture DDR5 DRAM memories.

They take the Crucial Ballistix Max up to 7GHz

To achieve this, the Chinese overclocker BABY-J has used Crucial Ballistix Max memory @ 4.000MHz ex works. The MSI MEG B550 Unify has been used as a motherboard. The most curious thing is that the processor used for this achievement has been the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650G. This processor intended for the business segment is quite difficult to find in the general market.

BABY-J, with this 75% increase in frequency on these DDR4 Ballistix Max, something quite extraordinary. Furthermore, it is the first overclocker to break the 7GHz barrier, which is truly impressive. This speaks highly of the Crucial modules, which seem to carry very high quality memory.

To date the maximum frequency achieved was 6.666MHz and it was also established with the Crucial Ballistix Max. Both records have been achieved using liquid nitrogen, how could it be otherwise. They are both very interesting data, showing how Micron's memories are the best on the market today.
