Both manufacturers have announced that we can now expand our computer’s memory capacity even further on some motherboards – because it can never be enough.

12.17.2023 – ASRock has great news for RAM collectors: Intel 700s and AMD AM5 series boards now support higher memory capacities, thanks to filling all four DIMM slots with 64GB Kingston Fury Renegade modules. To prove this, the company is one A screenshot was also shared From an AMD system (X670E Taichi board) and an Intel device (Z790 Nova WiFi), which are already running at this maximum memory capacity.
But that’s not the only good news: MSI also announced that it now supports 256GB of RAM on quad-socket motherboards and 128GB on dual-socket motherboards. Both motherboard manufacturers used Kingston Fury Renegade 64GB modules (KF560C36-64) with DDR5 chipsets manufactured by Micron.
the According to Tom Hardware These kits support EXPO and XMP 3.0 profiles, which support up to 6,000 MT/s at 1,350 V with 36-38-38 latency. The portal also points out that all this is thanks to Micron’s new LPDDR5X and 1-Beta technology, originally designed for mobile chips, which provides higher performance, higher bit density and better energy efficiency.
Although MSI and ASRock are the first manufacturers to announce this innovation, it is quite certain that other motherboard manufacturers will also be able to support 64GB DDR5 memory kits with AMD X670E and Z790 chipsets. However, it’s not entirely certain that X670 motherboards will be supported as well, since their only novelty is support for sixteen PCIe 5.0 lanes through Ryzen 7000 series CPUs.
