Additional Notes
- The ASUS ROG GV601RM-M5115 contains 2 SO-DIMM slots, which means only 2 memory modules can be installed simultaneously. Replacing either stick requires full module removal rather than expansion alongside existing RAM.
- DDR5-SDRAM operating at 4800 MHz delivers 76.8 GB/s theoretical bandwidth. Single-channel operation from a vacant slot reduces effective bandwidth by 50 percent until both slots are populated, creating potential latency penalties in bandwidth-intensive workloads.
- The 64 GB maximum capacity ceiling establishes a hard memory limit. Workloads requiring memory pooling beyond this threshold cannot be accommodated through RAM upgrades; alternative architectural solutions become necessary.
- SO-DIMM form factor restricts module selection to laptop-grade memory only. Desktop DDR5 DIMM modules are physically incompatible with the slot connectors and will not install.
- The JEDEC standard for DDR5 SO-DIMM topology supports native operation at 4800 MHz as a standardized frequency, reducing risk of compatibility issues with warranty-compliant module replacements from mainstream manufacturers.
- Upgrading to 64 GB requires 2x32 GB modules. Intermediate upgrade steps (such as 2x24 GB configurations) do not exist in current DDR5 SO-DIMM market availability, limiting staged upgrade flexibility.
