HIGH-BANDWIDTH AND LOW-LATENCY NETWORK 2.5Gbps LAN provides incredible data transfer speed faster than general Gigabit LAN. This is a premium solution for demanding users. Adata 16GB DDR5 Memory Higher Frequencies The DDR5-4800 U-DIMM delivers blazing frequencies of up to 4800 MT/s, a major leap from the max. frequency of DDR4 modules (3200 MT/s) More Energy-Efficient This next-gen memory module operates on just 1.1V, making it 8% more power-efficient than DDR4. What’s more, it features a built-in Power Management IC (PMIC) to enhanced power supply stability. Capacity Doubled This memory module’s architecture allows for more memory bank groups and banks. With the same area, more bank groups can be packed into the module, doubling what was possible with DDR4, giving you higher capacities. Improved Stability With on-die error correcting code (ECC) this module can correct errors automatically in real-time to provide increased stability and reliability. QuikTips: DDR5 vs DDR4 - Appearance DDR5 U-DIMM modules have the same dimensions and pin count as DDR4 modules. The most obvious difference is the position of the fool-proof notch. Also, DDR5 integrates I/O resistors with CMD/ADD resistors. Also, the appearance of DDR5 modules are cleaner than DDR4. In addition, you can see a PMIC in the center.
