Overview

DDR5 is the latest standard for system memory, designed to meet the increasing demands of modern multi-core processors and data-intensive applications.

Key Advancements

  • Massive Bandwidth: Starts at 4800 MT/s and is expected to reach 8400 MT/s and higher.
  • On-Die ECC: Includes Error Correction Code (ECC) on the chip itself for improved stability.
  • Power Management: Moves power management from the motherboard to the memory module (PMIC) for better efficiency.
  • Dual Channels: Each DDR5 module features two independent 32-bit channels for improved data flow.
