GIGABYTE AMD X870E AORUS X3D Motherboards Achieve Industry-leading DDR5-9000 Performance with V-COLOR Memory

GIGABYTE Technology, one of the top global manufacturers of motherboards, graphics cards, and hardware solutions, is proud to announce a groundbreaking milestone: the industry-leading DDR5-9000 speeds on X870E AORUS X3D motherboards using premium V-COLOR XFinity+ OLED DDR5 memory. This milestone represents a quantum leap in memory performance technology, setting new standards for high-performance computing and gaming applications.
At the heart of this achievement lies GIGABYTE's key Innovations:
X3D Turbo Mode 2.0
GIGABYTE's proprietary AI-powered optimization system delivers real-time performance tuning, intelligently adapting to workload demands while maximizing DDR5-9000 speed utilization across gaming and productivity applications.

D5 Bionic Corsa Technology
This revolutionary system combines AI-enhanced software, hardware, and firmware innovations to achieve stable 9000 MT/s operation through intelligent parameter adjustment and real-time analysis.

Advanced Engineering Excellence
The PCB Back Drilling technology on 8-layer server-grade PCB construction minimizes signal loss and electromagnetic interference in high-speed PCB designs. The Shielded Memory Routing features advanced PCB shielding ensures clean, interference-free memory signals. The Daisy-Chained design eliminates signal bottlenecks for maximum memory performance.

This milestone is powered by GIGABYTE's collaboration with V-COLOR XFinity+ OLED DDR5 memory. The optimized compatibility between X3D motherboards and V-COLOR DDR5 modules delivers unprecedented stability and reliability at DDR5-9000 speeds. GIGABYTE continue to work closely with V-COLOR to ensure users have access to the best possible memory solutions for their high-performance computing needs.

X3D motherboards with DDR5-9000 capability and V-COLOR XFinity+ OLED DDR5 memory are available now.

DDR5-9000 on an APU as per the provided screenshot (of a Taylor Swift fan ;)). What about on an actual X3D CPU to pair with the "X3D" motherboard?

X3D terminology is getting out of hand. I'm surprised AMD allowed this naming as it will cause confusion in the market (oh I have an X3D AMD but gaming performance isn't as good).

The reason why they use monolithic APU is because they got better memory controller that can clock higher without problems than chiplet Ryzen IOD.

Yes, that is my point. When you read this press release it suggests that DDR5-9000 just works, without having to use a monolithic APU to achieve it. It's deceptive if chiplet CPUs can't reach that speed.

All mobos are advertised as supporting 8400MT/s+ DDR5, but only with 8k APUs, which don't sell at all. You don't buy APUs with high-end mobos to play games, and all other CPUs have good enough integrated graphics for non-gaming tasks, so I find the 8k APUs a total failure. Multiple price cuts (50% lower prices in a few months after release) confirm that no one wants them, so who cares if the motherboard can make 9000MT/s with an APU that barely anyone will use?

I feel like each day I read more and more ridiculous advertisements made by marketing far from reality.

Where is oil found with "The PCB Back Drilling technology "?

I did not invent gigglebyte

Giggleybte, Gigabyte, has such fancy advertisement. I still remember the AI sn.... feature. (do not look it up, it is very disturbing )

Same — at first glance I thought Gigabyte was showing off 9000 MT/s on an actual X3D, but nope… it’s just the motherboard that’s branded X3D, not the CPU. Easy to misread if you’re skimming the PR.

It’s not exactly false advertising, but yeah, slapping “X3D” on the board and then showing an APU result definitely sets expectations they can’t meet on most if ANY chiplet CPUs.

Ooooohh soo close to being able to say the thing about the speed... So close...

But hey... Look at that. It's the Funny Number on memory latency! Nice

Could Gigabyte be using the APU with its better memory controller to get the biggest numbers like 9000 MT/s out on the street for when Zen 6 launches? Zen 5 X3D, despite its great performance, is hobbled by reusing Zen 4’s cIOD with only minor tweaks at best. I doubt that AMD would fail so badly on the cIOD so badly again that Zen 6 would reuse and tweak Zen 4’s cIOD a second time.

I do think that some caution might be warranted before buying an Aorus X3D motherboard with the expectation of running Zen 6 on them. I have no idea if these motherboards can run CUDIMMs with their clock drivers engaged or not. Unless AMD horrendously fails at the cIOD for Zen 6, I would expect Zen 6 to be able to enable CUDIMMs’ clock drivers.
