Matthew Wilson June 8, 2016 Component

G.Skill hosted the 5th annual OC World Record stage at Computex this year and it seems that the event was quite the success as 12 records were broken across eight different benchmarks over the course of the week.

For RAM, overclocker ‘Splave' managed to get some of G.Skill's own to hit a DDR4 frequency of 5189MHz on an ASRock Z170M OC Formula motherboard.
