ASUS will launch more boards with DDR4 memory by the first quarter of 2026

Although it has been several years since AMD has the AM5 platform on the market of processors, which has support for DDR5 memory, the manufacturer has not forgotten about users who still have a AM4 processor or board. Faced with a memory crisis where DDR5 is in short supply and it also has abusive prices, users are considering go back to DDR4 which has a much larger market. Even ASUS is planning to launch more motherboard models with AM4 socket and DDR4 memory during the first months of 2026.

But not only the AM4 models will have an outlet to combat this crisis, also the Intel with Socket LGA-1700 which also have support for DDR4. A new bet for the first quarter of 2026 where the well-known manufacturer will increase the production of this type of plates, to offer users cheaper alternatives.
