Additional Notes

  • Dual channel architecture requires matching memory modules in both slots to optimize bandwidth for integrated graphics tasks.
  • The MSI Prestige PS63 Modern-200 supports higher frequency modules but will downclock them to the system limit of 2400 MHz due to chipset restrictions.
  • Upgrading beyond 32 GB is prevented by the firmware despite the physical ability of the processor to handle larger capacities.
  • Installation of new hardware requires a full chassis base removal which may involve piercing a factory seal sticker over a screw hole.
  • The use of low voltage 1.2V modules is necessary to ensure stability and prevent thermal throttling within the thin chassis design.
  • Total memory capacity is limited by 2 physical slots since there is no soldered memory on the motherboard.
  • Mismatching module densities between the 2 slots will result in the system reverting to asynchronous flex mode instead of full dual channel performance.
