Overview
- Asus, which unveiled the kit Friday at its ROG 20th Anniversary event in China, introduced its first ROG-branded DDR5 memory rated at 6000 MT/s with tight CL26-36-36-76 timings at 1.45V.
- ‘ROG Mode’ adds a BIOS toggle on ROG motherboards that switches between a low-latency 6000 MT/s profile and a high-bandwidth 8000 MT/s profile at CL36-48-48-110 and 1.40V.
- Asus listed the kit in China at RMB 5,999—about $880 to $900—with a global release planned for late June and a lifetime warranty included.
- The 2×24 GB modules use SK Hynix M-Die ICs, support Intel XMP and AMD EXPO for easy setup on both platforms, and feature tall aluminum heat spreaders with Aura Sync RGB lighting.
- Asus co-developed the kit with BIWIN and launched a ROG Certified Memory Program naming 14 partners, a move that could widen ROG-compatible options and hints at a broader memory strategy beyond this anniversary edition.
