ASUS has launched new BIOS updates for its Intel 700 and 600 series motherboards in collaboration with Corsair, which now accommodate up to 192GB of DDR5 memory as well as the new Corsair Vengeance DDR5 48GB (2x24GB) 7000MT/s memory kits.
As the DDR5 memory market has further evolved, more and more consumers are seeking the max potential performance from these new-generation memory kits. And with this new BIOS update, ASUS’ Intel 700/600 series motherboards from the ROG Maximus, ROG Strix, ProArt, TUF Gaming, and Prime lineups can now support the latest 24GB and 48GB specification of DDR5 memory modules.
On top of that, the brand has also carefully tested the soon-to-come 2 x 24GB memory from Corsair to ensure that all of its motherboard lineups will be able to support up to 48GB of DDR5 RAM at 7000MT/s.
