Additional Notes

  • The presence of 2 physical SO-DIMM slots allows for a dual-channel memory configuration which doubles the theoretical bandwidth between the processor and the system RAM.
  • The MSI Summit E15 A11SCST-088FR architecture requires 32 GB modules in each slot to reach the verified 64 GB capacity limit.
  • Installing modules with frequencies higher than 2666 MHz will result in downclocking to match the motherboard controller limitations.
  • Memory upgrades require the removal of the entire bottom chassis panel which may involve piercing a factory seal sticker in certain regions.
  • Latency performance depends on matching the CAS latency of both modules as the system will default to the timings of the slowest installed stick.
  • The integrated graphics chip shares the system memory pool meaning higher RAM capacity directly increases the maximum VRAM buffer available for graphical tasks.
  • Compatibility is restricted to non-ECC unbuffered modules as registered server memory will prevent the system from posting.
