DDR51Maker product pageuk-store.msi.com/products/cyborg-15-b2rwRead 15 October 2026Memory: DDR5-5600. MSI says the actual frequency varies by memory combination and CPU capability. The US SKU memory comes from Colamco.

Memory channelsiActive memory channels of the installed configuration, not the number of RAM modules or slots. One installed module is one channel. This holds for DDR5 too, whose two 32-bit subchannels on one module do not count as two channels. Soldered LPDDR memory counts in 64-bit units, so a 128-bit bus is 2 channels, even when a maker calls it quad-channel.
