Additional Notes
- The internal layout of the MSI GS75 9SE-252AU Stealth features an inverted motherboard design that necessitates a full teardown to reach the memory slots located on the underside of the PCB.
- Utilizing 2 matching modules activates dual channel memory mode which compensates for the lower bandwidth ceiling of the 2666 MHz frequency during high frame rate rendering.
- The processor architecture lacks support for DDR5 modules making the hardware incompatible with newer generation memory standards during future maintenance.
- Latency parity between installed sticks is required to prevent the system from defaulting to the highest common denominator timings which reduces overall throughput.
- Physical height limitations within the ultra thin chassis restrict the use of SO-DIMM modules equipped with thick heat spreaders or bulky RGB lighting components.
- Upgrading to the 64 GB maximum capacity involves replacing both existing factory modules as the system architecture provides only 2 physical interfaces for volatile storage.
- Bios settings typically lack XMP profile support for overclocked memory resulting in high speed 3200 MHz modules automatically downclocking to the native speed of the chipset.
