Additional Notes
- The presence of on board memory indicates that half of the system memory is permanently soldered to the motherboard and cannot be replaced or upgraded.
- The asymmetrical memory configuration required to reach the 40 GB maximum capacity will result in the system operating in flex mode rather than full dual channel mode across the entire addressable space.
- Single slot availability for the ASUS ROG GU603HE-KR012T limits future expansion to a vertical swap of the existing module rather than an additive increase.
- Bandwidth performance depends on matching the 3200 MHz frequency of the soldered chips to prevent the system from downclocking to the lowest common denominator.
- Physical access to the SO-DIMM slot requires the removal of the bottom chassis panel which may involve piercing factory seals depending on regional warranty policies.
- Memory latency and timing synchronization are dictated by the fixed internal modules which restricts the effectiveness of installing high performance aftermarket kits with aggressive CAS timings.
- Total system throughput for memory intensive applications will see a marginal decline once the capacity usage exceeds the portion of RAM that is matched in pair with the soldered capacity.
