AMD promises 13% uplift with new EXPO ‘Ultra Low Latency’ overclocking on DDR5 DIMMs — automatic memory overclocking delivers 4% improvement over standard EXPO, says AMD

AMD ULL.

AMD is bringing a new automatic memory overclocking feature out, dubbed EXPO Ultra Low Latency (ULL). The new tool promises a 13% uplift in average performance across over 30 games compared to JEDEC standard speeds for DDR5, as well as a 4% uplift compared to standard EXPO, at least according to AMD’s internal benchmarks. The company hasn’t said when ULL will be available, but it has several memory partners lined up to support the feature.

We don’t know much about how EXPO ULL works, and more specifically, where AMD is finding improvements compared to standard EXPO. Despite that, AMD shared some broad benchmarks looking at EXPO ULL performance on a Ryzen 7 9700X CPU in over 30 games. AMD didn’t share resolution (presumably 1080p) or settings details for the titles, outside of the fact that they were tuned for “best performance.” You can see the full configuration in the gallery below.
