DDR5 Overclocking Strength - ASUS Enhanced Memory Profile

Comprehensive memory tuning options are the cornerstone of ROG motherboards. For DDR5, the ROG Strix Z690-E Gaming WiFi breaks performance limits with a stacked suite of overclocking parameters for both high-speed kits and entry-level memory modules that have a locked power management integrated circuit (PMIC):

New to overclocking? Click here to learn about the ASUS-exclusive AEMP technology

  • A dedicated circuit on the motherboard safely circumvents DDR5 memory PMIC restrictions, allowing users to sidestep the default 1.1-volt limit and push frequency and timings to the max.
  • Ordinarily, a restricted PMIC that has been unlocked requires the system to be fully power-cycled each time memory voltage is adjusted. ROG motherboards leverage special onboard hardware and firmware to cleverly work around this irksome limitation, enabling voltage adjustments to be applied through the same soft system-reset process employed for previous generations of DDR memory.
