Memory specialist Team Group has announced that it has prepared the first industrial DDR5-5600 memory modules. In its blurb, the firm claims that the new memory modules are a good match for next-gen platforms like “Intel Raptor Lake and AMD Raphael-X.

In the first quarter of 2022, the Top 10 fabless chip designers increased their cumulative sales to $39.43 billion, or by a whopping 44% year-over-year, according to TrendForce(opens in new tab).

At Computex 2022, AMD shared new benchmarks and details about its 5nm Zen 4 ‘Raphael’ Ryzen 7000 processors and AM5 socket motherboards, but it turns out the company made a mistake

One of the reasons why many enthusiasts have mixed feelings about DDR5 memory is its high latencies that hinder real-world performance advantages promised by higher data transfer rates as well as well as higher channel utilization.

AMD’s Ryzen 6000 mobile CPUs (codenamed Rembrandt) were announced and launched over four months ago in January and February, but it appears mainstream adoption has been slow for the new CPU lineup.

Intel hasn’t officially announced the 12th Generation Alder Lake-HX processors. However, Chinese news outlet ITHome has uncovered the alleged specifications for the chipmaker’s forthcoming muscle chips. Hardware detective momomo_us helped fill in the base clock speeds.

The average selling prices for DRAM are forecasted to drop by up to 5% in the second quarter because hardware manufacturers have built up enough inventory and because demand for PCs and other devices is not expected to be strong in the period due to uncertainties caused by Russian-Ukrainian war, according to TrendForce.

Intel’s support for AVX-512 instructions with its Alder Lake processors has been a confusing affair. The company initially claimed the feature wouldn’t work on its new 12th Gen processors and then backtracked when motherboard vendors found multiple workarounds to enable the commands.
