While the best RAM already works on MSI's Intel and AMD motherboards, the vendor has enabled support of 64GB DDR5 memory modules through a new firmware update. It allows users to use up to 256GB of memory, unprecedented on a consumer platform.
DDR5 introduced non-standard capacities for memory modules, such as 24GB and 48GB. These new densities have increased the maximum memory kit capacity to 96GB and 192GB, respectively. However, bigger things are coming. Memory manufacturers are preparing their mainstream 64GB memory modules for prime time. Kingston is one of the vendors that have shown off the brand's upcoming 256GB memory kits, comprised of four 64GB memory modules.
