Finally, I’m so happy to be the member of D4-5000 CLUB. I was managed to overclock the memory up to D4-5101.2 and get the CPU-Z validation. I’m not sure if I have any chance to push it further but I’ll keep trying and will never give it up. That’s why overclocking is always so much fun. I try, I fail, and I try again to break my personal records.

總算進入「5000俱樂部」了！還是那幾句老話，什麼D4-5000多容易又多簡單，根本就沒這回事啦！簡單是對高手而言簡單，我個人還是認為有夠難的。雖然我也突破D4-5000的障礙了，但我總覺得D4-5101.2這個成績的運氣成份也很高，讓我從頭來過重新再超一遍，也不一定可以做得到。因此，未來還需要花上好些時間，消化每個紀錄下來的步驟與數據，運氣之外，這是玩超頻過程中必須不斷努力的功課；只有持之以恆的努力，才能持續累積自己的實力，與所有愛好超頻的朋友們共勉之。

Overclocking with LN2 cooling may not be practical for general usages (24 hours x 7 days), however, it shows the possibility that the hardware (CPU/ Memory/ Graphics Card) could somehow run faster and bring better performance far beyond our expectations. And the products in the real world are always chasing after those overclocking records. I still remembered when “Toppc”, a famous overclocker from TW, firstly reached D4-5000 during Computex in 2016, the most high-end memory product on the market was D4-4133. And after 18 months, the most high-end memory product now reaches D4-4600 which is close to Toppc’s record then. The world record of DDR4 memory overclocking is D4-5529.2 for now and we’ll probably see the memory product of D4-5000 in the real world soon. At that time, I guess there is no D4-5000 CLUB any more . Maybe D4-5500 or D4-6000 CLUB……? let’s see what will happen!

很多朋友也許覺得液態氮超頻並不實際，畢竟，誰在家或在辦公室用液態氮超頻啊！而且，超再高也只是抓個CPU-Z認證而已。當然，液態氮超頻的實用價值不高，但它就是一種指標，代表了未來的可能性；雖然暫時必須在特定條件下，硬體才可以跑得更快、效能才可以更強大，但隨著技術持續進步，速度更快、效能更高的產品是有可能商品化的！2016年的台北國際電腦展，台灣知名的超頻玩家Toppc，成為史上第一位超頻到D4-5000的玩家，當時DDR4記憶體的最高時脈，大約還停留在D4-4133，但經過18個月之後，目前DDR4記憶體的最高時脈已經達到D4-4600。而DDR4記憶體目前的超頻世界紀錄已經來到D4-5529.2，所以，也許過不了多久D4-5000就會被商品化呢！到時候，自然也不再有所謂的「5000俱樂部」了，說不定會變成「5500俱樂部」或是「6000俱樂部」。未來有什麼變化與發展，就讓我們繼續看下去吧！
