Shielded Memory Routing
All memory routing is under the PCB inner layer shielded by a large ground layer to protect from
external interference.
Non-shielded
Memory Layout - Daisy Chain Design
With the optimized daisy-chain routing, the Z590M GAMING X motherboard provides a proven speed of up to DDR4-4800+ MHz with high-density Memory module*. Optimized daisy-chained routing eliminates the stub effect, pushes the one DIMM per channel in dual channel interleaving mode to hit higher memory frequencies, providing professional gamers a denser and faster system memory experience.
* Performance may vary in circumstances. Please refer to the QVL list for detail support information.

Single 32GB Support
The maximum memory capacity on the Z590 motherboard is 128GB. After Intel updated the
memory reference code, a single
slot can support up to 32GB. Therefore with populated 2 DIMM per channel on both channel, total
memory capacity is
128GB, which was only available on High End Desktop (HEDT) platforms. For users who always run out
of memory capacity,
there is more bandwidth now for memory-intensive application such as rendering and video editing.
