Additional Notes
- The ASUS ROG G513QY-DH99-CA contains 2 SO-DIMM slots that support DDR4-SDRAM at 3200 MHz, limiting maximum addressable memory to 32 GB total when both slots are populated with 16 GB modules.
- DDR4-3200 MHz memory operates at a fixed speed ceiling; replacement modules rated above 3200 MHz will downclock to 3200 MHz due to JEDEC standard enforcement in the platform firmware, eliminating any performance advantage from premium-speed modules.
- SO-DIMM form factor requires low-profile memory modules; standard 32 mm tall DIMM modules are physically incompatible and cannot be installed regardless of electrical compatibility.
- Upgrading from the stock configuration to 32 GB (two 16 GB modules) requires removal of existing populated slots; no mixed-capacity configuration (such as 8 GB + 24 GB) can exceed 32 GB due to the 2-slot architecture constraint.
- DDR4 is a mature, widely available memory standard with abundant third-party compatible options certified by JEDEC specification; replacement modules from major manufacturers will function without BIOS modifications on this platform.
- Warranty preservation typically requires modules carrying QVL (Qualified Vendor List) certification from ASUS or using verified third-party DDR4-SO-DIMM modules; non-certified modules may void coverage despite technical compatibility.
