Silicon Power just announced the release of its new SODIMM DDR5 memory for laptops. The new ram kits feature a frequency of 4800MHz with a CAS Latency of 40. Single and dual-channel kits are available for up to 64 GB (32GBx2). Please note that while this press release reads like these are intended as a DDR4 upgrade, you can not use DDR5 ram in a DDR4 laptop unless it is designed for both DDR4 and DDR5, which is highly unlikely. Below is Silicon Power’s press release.
Silicon Power’s New DDR5 SODIMM Provides The Next-Level Edge For Your Laptop
Taipei, Taiwan – May 6th, 2022 – Silicon Power (SP) releases its newest SODIMM memory module for laptops with the latest, groundbreaking DDR5 technology. Read on to learn why it’s time to ditch your DDR4 module and make the upgrade.
Silicon Power DDR5-SODIMM
Harness The Power Of DDR5
Taking speed, capacity, and reliability even further, the cutting-edge technology of this DDR5 SODIMM module gives that next-level edge for your laptop’s performance. With an aggressive 4800MHz frequency, it’s 50% higher than a standard 3200MHz DDR4 to provide multi-core CPUs with extreme responsiveness and the power to multi-task seamlessly.
Greater Power Efficiency
Even with all of its extra power, this DDR5 SODIMM module improves upon its predecessor with on-module voltage regulation. A power management integrated circuit (PMIC) reduces the burden on the motherboard control and results in a lower voltage of 1.1V versus 1.2V for DDR4 for even less power consumption.
Even More Reasons To Upgrade
● Doubled chip unit capacity compared to DDR4 (from 16GB to 32GB) for seamless multi-tasking
● Improved reliability versus DDR4 with On-Die Error Correction Code (ECC)
● Optimized efficiency with two independent 32-bit channels per module
● High computing performance with double the banks and double the burst length compared to DDR4
Features
● 4800MHz grants faster transmission speeds and higher bandwidth than DDR4
● 1.5x faster than standard 3200MHz DDR4 to provide multi-core CPUs with extreme responsiveness
● Available in 8GB, 16GB, and 32GB module densities
● Doubled chip unit capacity compared to DDR4 (from 16GB to 32GB) for seamless multi-tasking
● Low voltage of 1.1V for less power consumption
● Improved reliability versus DDR4 with On-Die Error Correction Code (ECC)
● Optimized efficiency with two independent 32-bit channels per module
● High computing performance with double the banks and double the burst length compared to DDR4
● Compatible with 12th Gen Intel® Core™ processors that support DDR5 and DDR5 compatible motherboards

Today, PNY announced its XLR8 Gaming DDR5 4800 MHz desktop memory. DDR5 signifies the next major leap in PC memory advancement with its low voltage requirements and increased JEDEC standard speeds. As with all DDR5 memory kits, these include an on-module PMIC (Power Management IC) reducing the load from the motherboards voltage regulators. Availability is expected around the fourth quarter of 2021 but there is still no word on pricing. Here is PNY’s official press release.
Today G.Skill announced its newest Trident Z5 RGB DDR5-6600 CL34 low latency memory kit. It comes as a 32GB set (2x16GB) with compatibility for Intel’s Z690 chipset and 12th Generation Core processors. It’s taking some time, but we’re finally seeing higher speeds and lower latency kits starting to hit the market. Pricing is not available at this time, but we expect them to be available sometime in May. Below is G.Skill’s official press release.
Our next stop at CES 2023 was MSI’s huge ballroom. Here we saw almost everything they had to offer. From laptops to monitors to keyboards and graphics cards, they had something to show off in almost every category. While we won’t cover everything here, we will show some highlights of the PCIe 5.0 storage (Spatium M570/M570 Pro), GK71 keyboard with Blue switches, Titan, Raider, and Stealth laptops, and more.
