Asus has unveiled its first branded RAM in an event in China under the ROG Edition 20 moniker. Right now there’s only one configuration, a 48GB dual channel kit based on SK Hynix M-Die chips rated for DDR5-6000 CL26 speeds that costs around $880\/\u00a3660 (5999 CNY).<\/p>\n

However, activating ROG mode on compatible Asus ROG Crosshair, Maximus and Strix motherboards allows you to choose between aggressive DDR5-6000 26-36-36-76 timings or a higher bandwidth DDR5-8000 36-48-48-110 mode. As well as ROG mode, the RAM kit supports Intel XMP and AMD EXPO standard profiles.<\/p>\n

As you might guess, the RAM comes with full RGB support through Asus Aura Sync and – as a special edition built for its ROG 20th anniversary event – is festooned with gold, silver, black and red metal. However, the RAM itself is made by Shenzhen-based manufacturer Biwin.<\/p>\n

The same 20th anniversary event also included the reveal of a matching motherboard, the ROG Crosshair X870E 2006 20th Anniversary Edition<\/a>, which looks pretty incredible to be fair.<\/p>\n

The RAM kit is set to arrive in late June, and there’s no word on worldwide availability just yet. Given that pricing is similar to other high-end kits and a lifetime warranty is included, it could actually be a reasonable choice for owners of Asus motherboards.<\/p>\n

If you prefer different RAM manufacturers, Asus also announced a partnership to create ROG-certified kits with 14 other RAM makers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Image: Asus Asus has unveiled its first branded RAM in an event in China under the ROG Edition…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":588363,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[4774,59,873,1180,86,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-588362","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-asus","tag-gb","tag-hardware","tag-pc","tag-technology","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/588362","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=588362"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/588362\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/588363"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=588362"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=588362"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=588362"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
