Additional Notes
- Dual channel architecture requires matching memory modules to reach peak data throughput and eliminate memory bus bottlenecks.
- The MSI PS63 8RC-029FR Modern utilizes a standard voltage profile which necessitates the use of DDR4 non ECC unbuffered modules for system stability.
- Installing RAM modules with clocks higher than 2400 MHz results in automatic downclocking to the controller limit which increases latency timings.
- Upgrading beyond the 32 GB threshold causes a failure to POST due to the hardware limitations of the processor memory controller.
- Accessing the SO-DIMM slots requires the removal of the entire base cover and the potential breaking of a factory seal sticker which varies by regional warranty policy.
- The presence of 2 slots means that reaching the capacity limit necessitates replacing both existing modules if the factory configuration occupies both sockets.
- Heat dissipation for secondary memory sticks depends on passive airflow within the chassis as no dedicated heat spreaders cover the SO-DIMM area.
