Cooler Master and G.SKILL have teamed up to engineer a sleek-looking air-cooled DDR5 kit called MasterDimm AC. Air-cooled memory is making a comeback, something not commonly seen since DDR3 and G.SKILL had several products featuring it back then. This time around, with the help of Cooler Master, those seeking the faster speeds of DDR5 can keep their kits cool with the CU-DIMM kits capable of running up to 8400 MT/s with Intel XMP 3.0.
Per Press Release (via TechPowerUp):
“Extreme Speed, Sustained by Dedicated Active Cooling Featuring support for AMD EXPO memory overclock profiles up to DDR5-6000 CL26 and extreme-frequency DDR5 CU-DIMM up to DDR5-8400 with Intel XMP 3.0, the co-engineered solution combines G.SKILL’s elite overclocking memory technology with Cooler Master’s dedicated active thermal architecture to sustain peak DDR5 performance beyond conventional thermal limits.”

“Designed for next-generation AI computing, gaming, content creation, and professional applications, this new memory supports ultra-high capacities up to 64GBx2 while maintaining long-duration stability under intensive workloads”

Key Product Features
- Next-Gen DDR5 Memory Platform: Super low latency up to 6000 MT/s CL26 (AMD EXPO), extreme-frequency CU-DIMM up to 8400 MT/s (Intel XMP 3.0)
- Advanced Active Cooling Technology: MasterDimm AC active cooling provides up to -15°C thermal improvement
- Quiet Thermal Design: A noise-optimized blower fan and specially designed air flow heat sink allow for greater cooling under 35dB volume
The new MasterDimm kits will be available in up to 128 GB capacities (2x 64 GB) and will be on display at Cooler Master’s Computex booth. They have been developed with acoustic noise in mind and have an “integrated cooling architecture is engineered to deliver efficient heat dissipation with a controlled noise profile, enabling high-frequency DDR5 operation while preserving a quieter and more refined PC experience.”
Pricing and availability have not yet been announced, but could be revealed soon at Computex, where Cooler Master’s theme this year is Thermal Authority.
