Exciting things are happening in the world of memory right now. Many of the headlines are being claimed by a new variety of DIMM, called Clock Unbuffered DIMM (CUDIMM). Featuring an integrated clock driver on the memory stick itself for improved reliability and stability, CUDIMM kits are already shattering speed records. But perhaps you’re more concerned with memory capacity than with raw speed. We have some good news for you. The trusted memory professionals at Kingston have cooked up a 64GB memory module: the Kingston Value RAM DDR5 6400MT/s 64GB CUDIMM.
64GB of DDR5 RAM on a single stick opens intriguing new possibilities. A 128GB one-DIMM-per-channel (1DPC) configuration is rather tempting. We suspect that many enthusiasts will be tempted by the prospect of installing four of these modules, a move that puts a stunningly large 256GB (4 x 64GB) pool of memory at their disposal — without having to venture into quad-channel workstation hardware.
To make sure that you have a seamless experience running a system with four of these memory modules with your ASUS Z890 or B860 motherboard, our research and development team collaborated closely with Kingston. Typically, loading up all four memory slots on your motherboard in the quest for higher capacity requires operating at lower memory speeds. But through our work with Kingston, we’re not only able to ensure that our systems boot up and operate with an exceptional level of stability with the new 256GB kits — we also give you an easy pathway for boosting performance above the baseline, too.

| Kingston KVR64A52BD8-64 (4 x 64GB) | 4400 MT/s | 5600 MT/s |
| Kingston KVR64A52BD8-64 (2 x 64GB) | 6400 MT/s | 7000 MT/s |
How much performance? Let’s start with the uplift you’ll see with the new Kingston modules and ASUS Z890 or B860 motherboards. Our boards are capable of overclocking two sticks of this DDR5 RAM up to 7000 MT/s, giving you an enviable blend of capacity and speed.
The performance uplift that we can offer for four-DIMM configurations with these memory modules is truly special, though. Typically, loading up all four memory slots on your motherboard in the quest for higher capacity requires operating at lower memory speeds. But we’re able to offer you much more. In a test system with an Intel Core Ultra Series 2 processor, the ROG Maximus Z890 Extreme, and four of the Kingston 64GB modules, we found stable performance at DDR5-5600 with the AEMP III profile enabled. That’s a 27% performance uplift over DDR5-4400, the baseline speed that users encounter when installing four DDR5 memory modules on an Intel motherboard.
Perhaps you prefer AMD processors instead. Our AMD motherboard lineup preps you for a great experience with these new Kingston memory modules, too. By default, 2DPC configurations run at 3200 MT/s on an AMD board.

|---|---|---|
| Memory Module | Default Speed | XMP |
| Kingston KVR64A52BD8-64 (4 x 64GB) | 3200 MT/s | 5200 MT/s |
| Kingston KVR64A52BD8-64 (2 x 64GB) | 5600 MT/s | 6800 MT/s |
But ASUS motherboards make it easy to boost performance above the baseline with these new 64GB memory modules from Kingston. With two sticks installed, you can boost performance up to 6800 MT/s. And with four sticks, 5200 MT/s speeds are possible — a whopping 62% increase over default configurations.
The setting on our AMD AM5 motherboards that unlocks the performance of these new memory modules is called ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile. Built through a flexible training method, these profiles make it easy for you to tune your memory above baseline settings while maintaining stable system operation. With AEMP, optimized memory settings are just a click away whether you’re getting the most out of an entry-level module or priming a high-speed kit for ultimate performance.
When your system detects that you’ve installed Kingston 64GB modules onto one of our Intel Z890 or B860 motherboards, you’ll see an option in BIOS for AEMP III. This advanced firmware feature empowers you to achieve unparalleled memory performance with cutting-edge CUDIMM memory. Through a two-phase comprehensive tuning process, AEMP III first optimizes the clock driver and then the memory frequency. This results in the best balance between performance and stability. Previously, AEMP III only supported 2-DIMM configurations, but now users can boost frequency and performance with this 4-DIMM configuration, too.
With Kingston’s new 64GB DDR5 memory modules and an ASUS motherboard, you have a unique opportunity to bolster your system’s memory capacity to an astonishing level. After installing this memory kit onto your ASUS motherboard, don’t miss the opportunity to boost stability and performance alike with AEMP.
