Additional Notes
- Dual channel architecture requires matching memory modules in both SO-DIMM slots to achieve full theoretical bandwidth and reduce communication latency between the processor and the system memory.
- The presence of 2 dedicated slots ensures that existing modules must be removed and replaced rather than supplemented to reach the maximum 64 GB capacity.
- Installing higher frequency modules than the 4800 MHz specification results in automatic downclocking to the system bus limit determined by the motherboard firmware.
- The ASUS ROG GX650PY-002W physical layout necessitates the use of standard height SO-DIMM modules to prevent interference with the cooling heat pipes or the bottom chassis panel.
- Capacity increases beyond 32 GB per slot are restricted by the BIOS hardware address space limits regardless of available physical space.
- Upgrading memory requires non-conductive tools to avoid short-circuiting sensitive components located near the open SO-DIMM trays.
- Mixing memory densities or ranks between the 2 slots may trigger system instability or lead to a failure in the POST process during cold boots.
