Any memory latency tests done?? Are they lower than the initial released procs? Best I can get my 265KF to is 70.1ms per aida64.

I haven't tested it, but I will be doing some DDR5 memory performance comparisons with different speed DDR5 for an upcoming memory comparison review, and I'll make sure to check out the latency in that testing.

I just did a quick test with the 270K Plus with 7600 MT/s DDR5 I'm using, CL38-46-46-105 CR2 - AIDA64 reports 81ns

I'll be doing more testing, and have a different kit I'll be comparing with, just wanted to share with you what I got on this system at the moment.

Should be able to tweek that down even more with NPU and Core to Core overclocking. Thank you as well!

That's a good stock result given the hardware configuration (separate memory controller and CPU dies).
