Quite good...
Despite i haven't reached the limit of my 128 Gb... yet lol

Just open 5 Google Chrome tabs.

google, amazon and meta have a lifetime ban from my computer 🙂 ...

Microsoft Edge? you know its built on chrome right?

192GB of RAM, just about enough for Hogwarts then.
heffeque
Firefox isn't.

Is DDR5 still hard to drive? I upgraded to 4x8 sticks of DDR4 on my Zen2+ (had 2 since 2020, ordered another 2 a couple months ago,) and while it works, everyone tells me "how lucky I am" because apparently most people have to drop from 3600 to 3200 for it to work.
Is DDR5 solving this once and for all?

Finally we can load entire game in the RAM 😛

I already do this for some old games, lol 😀 Would be interesting to see though how a modern 60GB+ game with a ton of asset streaming would run from RAM.

If I am not mistaken .... It's worse since ddr5 is already working like dual channel in a stick so since you do those on dual you technically have 4 channels .... So when you go on 4 sticks they fall apart.... Thing might be better now but as far I am aware on alder and 4 sticks you almost always stuck to 4800 now if things got better with rocket or zen ... Don't know I did not look at it at all

Is that 128GB of ECC memory?

I never understood these references..
I got 75 tabs open in my chrome now, and it uses 3.8gb..
OMG, 3.8gb out of my 64gb, the horror

I run a Patriot Viper Steel DDR4 64GB 3600MHz Kit but found my best results with 1T, tighter timings and at 3200mhz.

the short answer is no.
DDR5 isn't any more difficult to drive than ddr4 technically speaking, they are actually very similar, the problem is the very high frequencies, the electrical requirements are higher to meet spec compared to ddr4.
I imagine the poor 4 dimm support is mainly due to the lack of a need for 4 dimms and topology choice , when 2-4gb dimms were the norm, there was a pretty strong case for it, but now you can get 32gb dimms, and 64 gb dimms are possible.
for reference manufactures can choose the memory layout which effects the performance characteristics, The 2 main layouts are daisy-chain and t-topology, daisy chain allows for higher speeds with 2 dimms, t-topology allows for higher speeds with 4 dimms than daisy-chain, but cannot support speeds as high overall.[SPOILER]
some relevant marketing material from asus

daisy-chain is more appealing for ddr5 since is easier to achieve the higher speeds.

No, i don't need ECC anymore as i am half-retired (worked in very dangerous job before to be in computer work) so i wait my wife retirement.
I have no more twin xeon system 🙂

You must be too young 🙂 , it was in early chrome (and only on windows if i remember right)

Like people who dont get the "But can it run Crysis" thing 😀
rl66
No it's Chromium build.
Chromium is open source version of Chrome.
You can compile your own version, and mod it, even with Alphabet (the mother house of google) whole ecosystem blocker if you want.
Chrome is closed source from google.
Also you don't need Edge on Windows 11 (neither M$ account, TPM, "modern CPU", telemetry, send data to M$, forced auto update, WDM drivers, secure boot... the list is long)

You are right... but most of the financement is made by... google grrr 😡

Good news: DDR5 has mandatory ECC, I believe. So if it's DDR5, it has ECC.
