Additional Notes
- The internal layout of the MSI GS63 7RD-224 Stealth requires a full motherboard removal to access the memory slots because the slots are positioned on the flip side of the PCB.
- Dual channel symmetric bandwidth is only achievable when installing 2 modules of identical capacity and density.
- The processor architecture limits the memory controller to 2400 MHz even if higher rated 2666 MHz or 3200 MHz modules are installed.
- Upgrading beyond the 32 GB threshold is restricted by the hardware BIOS and will result in a failure to boot.
- The thin chassis design necessitates low profile SO-DIMM modules to avoid physical interference with the bottom panel or cooling pipes.
- Replacing factory memory with higher latency modules may decrease integrated graphics performance in specific workloads.
- Static discharge protection is mandatory during the upgrade process due to the exposed underside of the motherboard components.
- Voiding the factory seal sticker over the screw holes is often necessary for physical access to the RAM slots.
