GIGABYTE, a global leader in computer innovation, has unveiled a groundbreaking breakthrough at CES 2026: the world’s first CQDIMM (Clocked Unbuffered Dual In-Line Memory Module) technology. Paired with the CQDIMM-compatible Z890 AORUS Tachyon ICE CQDIMM Edition motherboard and advanced BIOS tuning, GIGABYTE has achieved a record-setting DDR5-7200 performance at full capacity, running two 128GB memory modules without compromise.
Traditionally, boosting DDR5 memory capacity meant sacrificing either speed or stability, limitations that GIGABYTE has now overcome. On the hardware side, meticulously optimised motherboard circuit layouts reduce memory channel loading, enhancing signal integrity and maintaining stability under heavy workloads. Meanwhile, GIGABYTE’s refined BIOS tuning technology leverages an optimised clock driver architecture to manage timing, signal synchronisation, and voltage precisely, unlocking extreme memory performance. This tight integration of hardware and firmware ensures high-frequency operation remains stable, efficient, and uncompromising.
This industry-first achievement sets a new benchmark for high-performance computing, catering to the demands of AI workloads, content creation, data-intensive applications, and professional environments requiring both massive bandwidth and memory capacity. GIGABYTE is collaborating with memory partners like ADATA, Kingston, and TeamGroup to accelerate CQDIMM adoption across next-generation PC systems.
