"The Ballistix Max DDR4-5100 will have limited availability at launch, so it's a first-come-first-serve basis. You will be able pick up the memory kit directly through Crucial or from a selected number of retailers, such as Amazon.

Crucial hasn't revealed the pricing for the memory kit yet, but Amazon Italy already has it up for pre-order at €853.19 (~$1,003.92), including VAT (value-added tax). Subtracting the 22% VAT rate that's standard in Italy would bring the price down to $836.60. It's not a bad price actually, considering 'slower' DDR4-5000 memory kits are selling for close to $1,000."

Can it run 1:1 on a 4000 series APU? ;). This is impressive though, but CL19-26-26-48? Might be better to dial back the speed and tighten up the timings, but this would have some serious high speeds, lol.

Yeah, I am unsure as to who this is appealing to. Didn't LTT do a review recently where even on Ryzen anything over 3600 or so is basically a waste?

This kit is so expensive and its not like the hardcore OC'ers will use it instead of overclocking the same binned chips for half the price.
 
Zen 3 to launch with ultra fast DDR4 controller, HT fabric.

It might actually get better with these ridiculous speeds, as the infinity fabric speed starts getting back into reasonable speeds.
