Compatibility of 256GB DDR5 RAM
Compatibility of 256GB DDR5 RAM
Hi All,
Will Ryzen 7 7700x processor work with MSI MAG Mortar B850M motherboard and 256 GB RAM? Specifically, 4x64GB DDR modules like CRUCIAL CP2K64G56C46U5.
Does the component appear in the motherboard's QVL (Qualified Version List)?
They mentioned that all their motherboards can handle 256GB RAM, but the highest limit for each part is actually 48GB, according to the latest update from April 2025.
That is a 128GB set not 256GB.
Using 2 sets it might not work together.
Why would you need 256GB of memory?
I received a call from MSI Tech regarding the board support. They confirmed it can accommodate 256GB, which means up to four 64GB modules at 5600Mhz, paired with the Ryzen 7 7700X CPU. The QVL doesn't list 64GB modules since they haven't been officially tested by MSI.

CL46 5600 offers a solid opportunity for work, though it doesn't ensure more than two sticks.
