Adata has announced that it is developing a new type of RAM modules, CUDIMM, based on DDR5 technology. The new RAM modules will be designed to work with the latest Intel Core Ultra 200S processors. The manufacturer did not say anything about the possibility of such memory working on current AMD platforms.

DDR5 CUDIMM memory differs from regular DDR5 DIMM in having a built-in clock generator. It effectively stabilizes the transmission of signals between the central processor and memory, allowing the latter to operate stably at higher frequencies.
According to the manufacturer’s press release, Adata DDR5 CUDIMM memory modules will be able to operate on motherboards with the Intel Z890 chipset at speeds above 9000 MT/s. However, the first solutions will offer a more modest speed. Adata’s first DDR5 CUDIMM memory kits will run at 6400 MT/s. However, the manufacturer confirmed that in the future it will release RAM modules with higher speeds – 8400, 8600, 8800, 9066 and 9200 MT/s. Adata will offer modules with a capacity of 16 and 24 GB.
The manufacturer also confirmed that DDR5 CUDIMM memory modules will be produced in its proprietary XPG Lancer RGB DDR5 series and will be equipped with silver radiators with RGB backlighting. Versions without a radiator are also planned for release.
Adata said its first DDR5 CUDIMM memory modules should be available in the fourth quarter of this year. However, the company did not specify the exact start date of sales, as well as the cost of memory modules.
