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. […]

AMD is reportedly working on EXPO 1.2, a major update to its memory overclocking standard designed to squeeze more performance out of the AM5 platform while laying the groundwork for the future.

According to 1usmus (via VideoCardz), this version introduces several granular tuning options, including support for tREFI, tRRDS, and tWR timings, along with a new Unified Latency Lock (ULL) feature and VDDP voltage adjustments designed to keep high-frequency kits stable.

The new update is also expected to expand support for CUDIMM and MRDIMM modules. However, current Zen 5 users should manage their expectations, as the AGESA 1.3.0.1 firmware currently offers only partial support. Full native support for these modules is likely to arrive only when AMD launches the Zen 6 processor series.

In an effort to mitigate ongoing global DRAM shortages, AMD has also used EXPO 1.2 to welcome several Chinese memory manufacturers into its certification programme. Brands such as RAMXEED Limited Conexant, Rui Xuan, and Fujitsu Synaptics are now officially supported, providing more alternatives to traditional consumer DRAM kits.

For those using Asus boards, a beta BIOS version 2301 is already available on some models.
