ASRock Loads Up 1 TB of DDR4 Memory on X299 Motherboards
ASRock has tweeted out most how the well-known overclocker Nick Shih has used the ASRock X299 Taichi CLX motherboard to get an astounding amount of RAM installed. Nick Shih used the consumer-grade X299 motherboard (review here), which mostly but offers support for upwards to 256 GB of not-ECC DDR4 RAM and loaded it up with i TB of RDIMM DDR4 retentiveness.
Renowned overclocker Nick Shih has done another fantastic feat getting a full of ane TB of LRDIMM RAM into a consumer-course X299 motherboard
The RAM that Nick Shih used were 8 SK Hynix 128 GB LRDIMM (load-reduced DIMM) modules, fifty-fifty though the X299 Taichi CLX doesn't officially back up ECC (or Fault Correction Code) and doesn't offer whatsoever support for LRDIMM modules. LRDIMMs may look similar typical DDR4 modules but they are currently only supported by workstation motherboards and no consumer X299 board can support it right now. All the same, that is about to change as ASRock is prepping upward a new BIOS that would enable RDIMM back up on the consumer-grade X299 motherboards with 7th, 9th and tenth Gen processors.
Nick Shih has already used the LRDIMMs in a couple of other builds in his portfolio. Unremarkably, the LRDIMMs have a max speed of just 2,666 MHz. The modules that were featured on the examination setup were 'HMABAGL7MBR4N-WM' which comes with a clock speed of two,933 MHz, timings of CL21-21-21-47 and a default voltage of 1.20V. Another tremendous gamble that Shih has washed with LRDIMMs is overclocking them to reach an immense speed of 3,471.8 MHz, with the timings of 20-24-24-56, which is heavily reliant on the IMC (integrated retentivity controller) inside of the CPU itself. LRDIMMS works in a similar fashion to Registered DIMMs but they buffer the address and control signals through register logic.
Samsung had announced its 256 GB LRDIMMs last twelvemonth, which would be quite the task for Shih to accept on if he chooses to, but 2 TB of RAM in a consumer motherboard would be a fantastic sight. This is the highest amount RAM currently installed in a consumer-grade motherboard, and the only other option would be the MAC Pro, which offers i.5 TB of RAM at its highest configuration. The Mac Pro costs roughly up to $52,000.
