Experience Ultra-Efficient Storage with TeamGroup’s New LPDDR5X CAMM2 Memory Units – Your Third Choice for the Latest Compact RAM Standard and Intelligent Branding

TeamGroup has introduced its T-Create Expert AI series LPDDR5X CAMM2 memory modules (as well as many other new memory and storage products) ahead ofComputex 2024 .

The headlining new RAM modules come in LPDDR5X-7200 and LPDDR5X-6400 speeds, with CL28/CL24 latencies, in 32GB/64GB capacities. The company stresses the benefits of its fast new memory modules in generative AI applications, as they are tailored for high-speed computing.

With itsComputex launch, TeamGroup becomes just the third memory maker to market CAMM2 memory modules, and likeCrucial (which is owned by Micron ), it is banking on consumers lapping up high-speed memory to speed AI processing. The company emphasized the importance of delivering an optimal experience in the space-saving CAMM2 form factor.

TeamGroup is using its own LPDDR5X IC classification and verification process and will provide LPDDR5X-7500 and LPDDR5X-6400 modules delivering 60 GB/s and 51.2 GB/s bandwidth, with CL28 and CL24 latency speeds, respectively. Additionally, it uses ultra-thin graphene heatsinks to help with heat dissipation.

Unfortunately, TeamGroup did not reveal pricing for its CAMM2 modules. But early adoption with such technology always comes at a premium, such is the case with the Crucial-made 32GB and 64GB modulespriced at $179.99 and $329.99 , respectively. Like any newly released memory module, they should reduce in price eventually, while introducing higher memory capacities and speeds with lowered latencies.

CAMM2 memory modules areprimarily made to replace the SO-DIMM form factor fornotebooks , though we can’t rule out them being adopted by other PC form factors. Lenovo is the first notebook maker ready for CAMM2 modules with itsThinkPad P1 Gen 7 . With Computex 2024 just days away, we should see a plethora of upcoming notebooks using this standard.

Adoption on other computing form factors

Apart from its size advantage, its ability to provide 1.3x more bandwidth compared to standard DDR5 modules at JEDEC speeds, and lowered power consumption, could make CAMM2 an excellent addition to desktops, mini PCs, and maybe handheld devices. This is the case withMSI and Kingston , who showed off Fury Impact DDR5 CAMM2 modules on theMSI Z790 Project Zero Plus motherboard - a BTF board thathides its connectors and certain components on the reverse side of the PCB. There will likely be many other memory makers showing CAMM2 modules, possibly also from Crucial who is the first to introduceDDR5-based CAMM2 memory in the market , followed bySamsung Electronics whose executive vice president of memory product planning said this form factor is set to gain wide adoption in PCs, laptops and data centers.

CAMM2 modules are likely to be adopted quicker than previous new memory form factors, as these are more compact while providing higher bandwidth - yet retain the ability to be user-fitted for repairs and upgrades.
