Memory Analysis

The Ryzen 7 chips are the same, really, and the commonality in architecture and use of the same memory means that, as expected, the bandwidth numbers are almost identical.

We've tried a newer version of the benchmark yet it too shows the latency to be slower than other chips. AMD reckons this is an anomaly, with internal testing indicating otherwise, so we'll update this page once AIDA is suitably refreshed.

Bottom line here is that the dual-channel memory architecture offers plenty of bandwidth at the native 2,666MHz speed.
