AMD Ryzen AI 300 Now Supports LPDDR5X-8000 Memory

The arrival of the AMD Ryzen AI 300 processors, codenamed Strix Point, initially came with LPDDR5X-7500 memory support as standard, but now AMD has quietly added compatibility for faster memory.

AMD Ryzen AI 300 Expands Memory Support

Now, laptop chips equipped with Zen 5 and Zen 5c cores, along with RDNA 3.5 graphics and a 50 TOPS NPU, support LPDDR5X-8000 memory. While this limited increase in speed may not significantly impact CPU-exclusive tasks, the faster memory will benefit the integrated GPU, which directly utilizes system memory. Additionally, NPUs can process large data sets more effectively with this enhanced memory speed, making it ideal for intensive tasks.

Furthermore, with this type of memory, there is typically no option to increase frequency, so its operation is adapted to the processor’s maximum allowance, enabling the launch of new laptops with faster memory capabilities.

In fact, the first laptop to feature this upgrade will be the HP EliteBook X G1A, with more models expected to hit the market soon.

Additionally, support for DDR5 memory in SO-DIMM format has also seen improvements. While the speed remains capped at DDR5-5600, AMD Ryzen AI 300 Strix Point processors now support two “dual-rank” memory modules, providing increased flexibility for users.
