Computex 2026: KitGuru interviews AMD’s Bill Alverson

16 June 2026 at 08:58

While at Computex 2026, Leo had a chance to chat with AMD's Bill Alverson to get more details on the new AMD EXPO Ultra Low Latency memory profiles. We also spend some time checking out an LN2-colled RX 9060 XT and get a first-hand look at an overclocking world record being broken.

Watch via YouTube below:

Timestamps:
00:00 AMD EXPO ULL
02:51 LN2 on an 9060 XT!
04:04 World record beaten – attempt 2!

We saw some of the first EXPO ULL DDR5 kits in action over the course of Computex, including G.Skill's new Trident X5 NeoX kit, offering DDR5-6000 speeds at as low as CL26 latency.

Watch to the end of the video to see an attempt to push an RX 9060 XT to 5GHz using LN2!

KitGuru Says: Thanks to Bill for taking the time to get on camera with us. We look forward to seeing more from AMD in the months ahead.Β

AMD EXPO Ultra Low Latency support expands to older AM5 motherboards

12 June 2026 at 16:00

Asus and MSI have released new BIOS updates based on AGESA ComboAM5 1.3.0.1b, bringing AMD EXPO Ultra Low Latency (ULL) support to older 600-series AM5 motherboards.

As noted by VideoCardz, the feature is currently available on selected Asus X670E motherboards, including the ROG Crosshair X670E Hero, Gene, and Extreme. Download links for BIOS 3803 are also live for the ROG Strix X670E-A, X670E-E, X670E-F, and ProArt X670E Creator WiFi. Other models like the ROG Strix X670E-I Gaming WiFi, TUF Gaming X670E-Plus, and TUF Gaming X670E-Plus WiFi currently show placeholder β€œ38XX” names, indicating their builds are not yet available.

This update introduces three new DRAM timing controls to Ai Tweaker and DRAM Timing Control: β€œTccdL”, β€œTccdL_WR”, and β€œTccdL_WR2”. These releases are still in beta, meaning users with stable configurations might want to wait for the final versions.

MSI is also rolling out AGESA PI-1.3.0.1b updates with an β€œOptimized with AMD EXPO Technology: Featuring Ultra Low Latency” note for its own AM5 lineup. AMD states that its EXPO Ultra Low Latency feature targets tighter DDR5 sub-timings to reduce latency. The chipmaker claims this offers up to 4% higher average FPS than standard EXPO and up to 13% higher than JEDEC DDR5 when tested on a Ryzen 7 9700X system.

KitGuru says: It is nice to see motherboard vendors backward-porting features like EXPO ULL to older AM5 boards, saving users from needing an immediate upgrade.

V-Color Pushes DDR5 Capacity to 2 TB With New MRDIMM Kits, While Its OLED Memory Gets Low-Profile EXPO ULL Redesign

7 June 2026 at 07:35

A V-Color XOtt series DDR5 OLED gaming memory module is displayed in an open box, accompanied by a ruler.

V-Color presents its new XOT1 DDR5 memory kits that will come in super-fast speeds, and EXPO ULL "low-latency" optimized flavors. V-Color's Latest OLED DDR5 Memory Makes Some Changes That Lead To Slimmer & Sleeker Design Last year, V-Color launched its MANTA OLED XFinity+, which we tested. The kits supported some really fast speeds above 8000 MT/s and were the first to feature an OLED display on a memory module. This year, V-Color has updated that design. The new V-Color Manta XOT1 UDIMM SCC memory kit comes with AMD EXPO ULL profiles, supporting up to 6000 MT/s speeds at CL26 timings. […]

Computex 2026: G.Skill announces Trident Z5 NeoX RGB memory with AMD EXPO Ultra Low Latency

5 June 2026 at 15:00

G.Skill has announced its new Trident Z5 NeoX RGB DDR5 memory series at Computex 2026, introducing support for AMD's newly released Ultra Low Latency EXPO profiles. The new kits feature specifications ranging from DDR5-6000 CL36 down to DDR5-6000 CL26.

The memory kits leverage the newly updated AMD EXPO ULL technology. According to G.Skill, this technology includes several new memory sub-timing settings designed to deliver better latency performance at identical memory speeds. These enhancements particularly benefit non-X3D AMD desktop processors, and users can enable the performance boost by activating the profile through a compatible BIOS.

This new lineup is an upgrade to the existing Trident Z5 Neo RGB series, and both product families will continue to coexist. G.Skill is offering the memory modules in three colour finishes: mirrored black, matte black, and matte white.

At Computex 2026, the company showcased four distinct specifications in 32GB (2x 16GB) dual-channel kit capacities. These include DDR5-6000 CL36, DDR5-6000 CL30, DDR5-6000 CL28, and DDR5-6000 CL26 configurations. G.Skill states that all kits have been validated through internal stress tests across various motherboards to ensure platform compatibility.

KitGuru says: Getting DDR5-6000 down to CL26 with AMD's new ultra-low-latency profiles should deliver a nice performance bump.

Silicon Power to showcase ROG certified RAM at Computex 2026

27 May 2026 at 14:30

Silicon Power has announced the launch of the XPower Cyclone R DDR5 memory module, a new addition to its performance-focused gaming lineup. As this memory is developed in collaboration with Asus as part of the brand's 20th-anniversary, the module has official ROG-certified status.

The memory module is built on the standard DDR5 architecture, delivering operating speeds of up to 6000MT/s. To maintain reliability under heavy processing loads, the hardware incorporates onboard power management integrated circuits (PMICs) and native on-die Error Correction Code (ECC) technology. The modules also include built-in profiles for AMD EXPO, providing automated overclocking configurations for AMD Ryzen-based PCs.

The design utilises a phantom-black aluminium heat spreader with reverse-slanted gradient lines. There is also an ARGB light bar on the top, which as you would expect, supports Asus Aura Sync. Silicon Power will display the XPower Cyclone R DDR5 memory kits at Computex 2026, which starts next week.

Discuss on our Facebook page, HERE.

KitGuru says: We'll be at Computex, so we may get a closer look at these ourselves soon.Β
