DDR4 Memory Speed Tests With The Core i7 6800K On Ubuntu Linux

BTW, Anandtech found that Redis is very sensitive to memory performance (http://www.anandtech.com/show/8959/d...-and-crucial/5). Might be good to add that to the test suite.

Err wait a minute... ii-6800K ark page says it supports DDR4 2400/2133 memory. Are you telling me that page is inaccurate and said CPU runs up to DDR4 3000 MHZ?

I would assume he tested these higher-than-spec speeds via an overclocking setting in the mainboard BIOS. User selectable above-spec frequencies for both CPU and memory have been a standard feature of enthusiast consumer mainboards for many years.
