I just said I have an Apex. I plan on going cold with it for the review so it will be a week or two before you see it posted. But its a beast, as you are seeing already.
Wow those are some nice timings for 4400 Mhz. Nice work Woomack!Expected memory bandwidth at 4400 CL17 and 7700K@5GHz
Just wondering if it's just due to the maturity of the chip or the boards.
The traces definitely are shorter on the APEX, how many motherboard run dual channel in slots 1 and 2?All the DDR4 memory was not out when the motherboard manufactures tested memory configurations on the Z170s before they were released. The Z170 motherboard manufactures did not have a great range of DDR4 memory to test with back in 2015.
I say the distance of the tracers are about the same on all motherboards because of Intel's specification on the cooler to memory layout distance. From what I see it is the sub-timings that the different board partners use to run unspecified by Intel OC memory.
