Overview
- Asus introduced its first ROG-branded DDR5 memory Friday at the brand’s 20th‑anniversary event in China.
- The 48 GB kit uses two 24 GB Hynix M‑Die sticks rated at 6000 MT/s with CL26 and supports Intel XMP and AMD EXPO profiles, with a new BIOS “ROG Mode” that lets users pick 6000 CL26-36-36-76 at 1.45V or 8000 CL36-48-48-110 at 1.40V.
- Asus lists the kit at 5,999 RMB (about $900) with a lifetime warranty and targets late June for availability, which tracks with today’s higher DRAM prices.
- The tall aluminum modules add AURA Sync RGB lighting and a black‑gold‑red anniversary design, and coverage notes co-development with BIWIN.
- Asus also launched a ROG Certified Memory Program with 14 partners so third-party DDR5 modules can ship tuned for ROG boards and lighting.
