China-made CXMT memory now supports faster speeds on MSI’s AMD motherboards — new BIOS adds DDR5-8200 validation on dual-DIMM, DDR5-7200 on quad-DIMM models

by

The test BIOS comes from MSI China — there’s no announcement on global channels for some reason, and it’s only available for select motherboards at the moment. MSI tested region-bound retail kits from Lexar and KingBank …

Meta fights soaring hardware costs by reusing old DDR4 server memory in new DDR5-only servers — custom CXL 2.0 chip marries legacy DDR4-2400 with cutting-edge D

by

CXL is a protocol that sits on top of the PCIe physical interface. As a result of this, many early CXL implementations were built by modifying existing PCIe IP, which is why such implementations inherited architectural c…

Benevolent Facebook trader exchanges 192GB of DDR5 worth $2,200 for one RTX 5070 Ti worth roughly $800 — says selling at such a high price would have been ‘unet

by

True to his word, he states that it “would have felt unethical to sell at such a high price” and that he’s happy with his decision. Likewise, he didn’t want to parcel out the kit for maximum profit either. It’s safe to s…
