GALAX is another brand that will have some news to show in the coming weeks, during CES 2023, which takes place in January in Las Vegas, in the United States. According to the ITHome portal, the company is preparing new items for the HOF line, including state-of-the-art DDR5 memory and PCIe Gen 5.0 SSDs🇧🇷 Below, there are even some promotional images of the news. In fact, the official announcement should be this Friday (23), while the on-site demonstration should stay for the event.
The new memory module is a departure from previous GALAX designs, with the logo outlined in RGB, confirming that the memory will be part of a high-performance package. The expected speed of GALAX’s new memory module is expected to feature DDR5 speeds of up to 8000 Mbps, which will make it one of the fastest DRAM modules, keeping up with the terrain that the competition has already explored.
In addition, the new HOF PCIe 5.0 SSD will have a central fan to dissipate heat more adequately. The new SSD will also be part of the HOF family and will have a read speed of 12 GB/s — even though rival companies like ADATA are already betting on components that reach 14 GB/s.
NETAC, G.Skill, TeamGroup and Zhiqi are also other houses with an eye on 8000 Mbps DDR5 memories. Demand for higher memory speeds is necessary, with processors and graphics cards demanding higher memory speeds to deliver high levels of performance. Maintaining temperatures in newer DDR5-8000 memory modules required design changes to find the right mix of cooling techniques. Bigger heatsinks are more present in the DDR5-8000 modules we’ve seen so far, and by the look of the new GALAX memory teaser, we can expect something similar here.
