At the Innovation 2022 event, Intel confirmed that 13th Gen Core processors support up to DDR5-5600 memory without overclocking. Now it has become known that for the flagship Core i9-13900K processor, support for DDR5-7600 memory is also announced, but overclocked using Intel XMP 3.0 profiles.

Intel XMP technology allows you to automatically select the best profile for the intended operating mode when the system boots, which determines the memory frequency and delay values. Tweaking memory during overclocking can usually take several hours, given the need to test the results, and Intel offered to save time using ready-made tuning profiles provided by the RAM manufacturer. Intel has a list of XMP 3.0 profiles, which indicate the optimal parameters of certain memory modules for overclocking. Intel recently updated this list.
The fastest memory modules listed in XMP 3.0 profiles are solutions from G.Skill, which were tested on ASUS Z790 ROG Maximus Hero and Apex motherboards. The listings indicate that DDR5-7466 and DDR5-7600 RAM modules can operate at 1.4 V and with CL36 timings, as part of configurations with a Core i9-13900K processor. Below is a list of memory modules that work with these settings:
- G-Skill DDR5-7466 CL36 – F5-7466J3648G16GX2-TZ5RK
- G-Skill DDR5-7466 CL36 – F5-7466J3648G16GX2-TZ5RK
- G-Skill DDR5-7600 CL36 – F5-7600J3648G16GX2-TZ5RK

It should be clarified that at the moment the fastest available DDR5 memory kit from G.Skill is the Trident Z5 RGB DDR5-6600. As for the RAM kits that are listed above, they have not yet gone on sale.
