The BIOS enables DDR5-8200 on dual-DIMM setups and DDR5-7200 on quad-DIMM models. CXMT, founded in 2016, is producing consumer DDR5, offering an additional supply source as Micron exits the consumer market.","whyItMatters":"The BIOS validation suggests CXMT memory is gaining platform support, potentially increasing DDR5 supply and offering an alternative to Samsung, SK hynix, and the departing Micron.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eMSI\u0026#39;s beta BIOS validates CXMT DDR5 memory at DDR5-8200 on dual-DIMM AMD boards and DDR5-7200 on quad-DIMM configurations, according to reports from VideoCardz and Tom\u0026#39;s Hardware. The memory used in the test was KingBank DDR5 sticks rated at DDR5-6000, running error-free at the higher speed. Another screenshot showed Lexar DDR5 using CXMT chips reaching DDR5-8000. The BIOS is currently distributed only in China. CXMT\u0026#39;s entry comes as the memory market faces supply constraints from AI demand and Micron\u0026#39;s withdrawal from consumer RAM and SSDs. The company is listed on the U.S. blacklist, but Apple has reportedly sought permission to buy CXMT memory. While CXMT memory is not cheaper than incumbents, it adds to the overall DDR5 supply.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"MSI released a beta BIOS enabling DDR5-8200 for Chinese CXMT memory on AMD motherboards.
