MSI expands support for CXMT memories with speeds of up to 8,600 MT/s on its boards with Intel Z890 chipset

Due to the current memory crisismanufacturers are looking for alternatives to offer their products at the best price, and also to ensure that they can supply products that include these coveted memory chips. To get away from the main memory manufacturers (SK Hynix, Micron and Samsung) some are opting for alternatives such as CXMTwhich has gained popularity lately. To ensure 100% compatibility, motherboard manufacturers are also adapting their products to higher speeds with memory that includes these CXMT chips.

MSI expands support for DDR5 memory with CXMT chips on Intel

Although they initially started with AMD-based boards, MSI also offers support for memory featuring CXMT chips at speeds above 8,000 MT/s on Intel Z890 chipset boards.. The CXMT memories had stuck at very low speeds that could not overcome the 6,800 MT/sbut this BIOS optimization allows stable operation at higher speeds that exceed 8,000 MT/s.

Up to 8,600 MT/s with DDR5 modules based on CXMT chips

MSI has validated memory performance with these chips across its entire range of motherboards, from extreme performance ones for overclocking to lighter models for home use that include four memory slots.

Starting with an extreme overclocking board with two DDR5 slots, the MSI MEG Z890 UNIFY-Xthe manufacturer has achieved speeds of 8,600 MT/s with latency 46-56-56-134 using a Intel Core Ultra 5 245Kalong with modules 24GB with CXMT chips. With a cheaper plate, the MSI PRO Z890-S WiFi speeds of 8,200 MT/s with latency 44-56-56-132 using a Intel Core Ultra 5 250K together with two modules of 16 GB with these chips.

MEMORY TRY IT also adds support for modules with CXMT chips

In addition, MSI has introduced these modules with CXMT memory as compatible with its technology MEMORY TRY IT. A technology that allows you to overclock automatically with a single click, instead of having to adjust the frequencies and voltage manually, selecting one of the profiles compatible with the BIOS. This also allows more extreme settings to be made for users who are not so experienced with memory modules from any manufacturer.

MSI already has support for DDR5 made with CXMT chips. He started with his plates for the platform AMD AM5 and then completed the validation of this memory also on Intel boards. MSI is ready to host your motherboards any memory module and offer maximum performance with them.
