Chris' gaming experiences go back to the mid-nineties when he conned his parents into buying an 'educational PC' that was conveniently overpowered to play Doom and Tie Fighter. He developed a love of extreme overclocking that destroyed his savings despite the cheaper hardware on offer via his job at a PC store.

a little while back. It's main feature us that all the major connectors are relocated to the rear of the motherboard, including the power connectors, system headers and SATA ports, but this new concept with CAMM2 memory something altogether different.

There is the question of why MSI and Kingston would spend the resources to come up with this concept. I can see it being beneficial for large CPU coolers, by eliminating RAM compatibility concerns. It would also create the possibility for some creative use of the space atop the module. More RGB? Cough cough…. DDR6 memory is also in development, and given the sensitivities of DDR5 trace design, some kind of new standard may actually be necessary.

Such questions have little relevance at this point in time. Laptops have increasingly been adopting soldered RAM, so whether CAMM2 memory even takes off in the laptop space—let alone desktops—remains an open question. We don't know anything specific about the implementation itself, such as the speed, timings, the chips used, capacity, power, or if there are any heat concerns. And, the big unknown is how much a CAMM2 module would cost compared to an equivalent dual channel DDR5 kit.
