The modules CAMM2 and LPCAMM2 They are a new format that allows the integration of ram memory modules directly on the motherboard PCB using a pin system similar to that of LGA sockets, with a matrix of contacts that directly communicate the module with the CPU through tracks. of the plate.
Although their main market is laptops, they could also carve out a niche in the desktop motherboard market, by offering an efficient system of having large amounts of RAM in a much more contained space and without protrude from the motherboard as is the case with DIMM modules.
MSI has revealed some information about its first desktop motherboard with CAMM2 memories, the MSI Z790 PROJECT ZERO PLUS. This is a motherboard with a Z790 chipset for Intel processors that has a socket for a CAMM2 memory module.
Its name already gives us a clue, and that is that this board is included in the "project zero" initiative of MSI components that seek to simplify the front of the motherboards as much as possible, moving all the power connectors to the back, and now also limiting the space occupied by the RAM modules.
We hope to be able to reveal more information to you from Taiwan.
