The renowned MSI overclocker, TOPPC, is announcing that the next processors Core Ultra 200 “Arrow Lake-S” They are going to have an improvement in the memory controller.
Core Ultra 200 would have an improvement in the DDR5 memory controller
We know that Arrow Lake-S will provide a series of improvements and adjustments of all kinds, such as the inclusion of new P/E-Core cores, the absence of Hyper-Threading or use a new socket LGA 1851, among other changes. Apparently, Intel would also have made adjustments to the memory controller for its series Core Ultra 200 “Arrow Lake-S” desktop, as revealed by MSI at its Dragon Shield “Wuhan” event.
The hired overclocker of de MSI, TOPPC, He took the stage to briefly talk about the dual-channel memory controllers of Intel Core processors, teasing that the upcoming Intel Core Ultra 200 desktop processors will feature an update to their IMC memory controller. This upgrade is of particular interest to overclockers, as well as PC users, as it would allow for higher DDR5 memory speeds as well as higher OC targets than seen so far.

To this day, the memories DDR5 They are capable of reaching speeds of 9000 MT/s overclocked, although few motherboards can support such speeds today. This could change with the arrival of new processors Core Ultra 200 and motherboards Intel 800 with socket LGA 1851where we should see faster DDR5 memory reaching the aforementioned speeds on a larger number of motherboards and surpassing it on high-end motherboards.
With Arrow Lake raising native DDR5 memory support from 5600 to 6400 MT/s, it will be easy for the new series to handle memory speeds exceeding 10,000 MT/s. Currently, the memory speed record achieved by professional overclockers is 11648.4 MT/s.
The Core Ultra 200 “Arrow Lake-S” processors would be launched in the second half of this year 2024.
