ASUS ROG Strix Z690-I D4: When will the DDR4 motherboard will be announced?

[roganaut]

Hi,

I've to apologize for opening another thread. But as there's no stock at all for DDR5 I wonder when the alternative DDR4 model will be announced and even the better will be available.
At this time there's no chance to build a new system.
Unfortunately either no memory or no cooler or no board is available. While the lonely CPU is waiting for a new housing.

Thank You very much about any information.

Hi rogonaut,

Doing a search, I see no mention of the ROG Strix Z690-I supporting DDR4 memory.

Because the ROG Strix Z690-I is a DDR5 motherboard, I wouldn't expect to see it with a DDR4 version.

Hi Nate152,

this is strange as air cooler producer noctua.at is listing this as D4 which should be DDR 4 if I'm right.

As you are the Moderator: Could you please be so kind and correct my typo in the title to 'announced'?

[Nate152]

Very strange indeed.

I sent Noctua an email to share more information. I think it is a mistake, but for you I would like for them to prove me wrong.

Should get a response Monday.

Title fixed.

As pretty much I figured.

Though it's not available...

Thank you for pointing this out roganaut, I'm sure both sides appreciate it.

Thank you. I've seen it on Noctua already, they deleted the entry.

So I'm right back at the starting point... Either DDR5 motherboard with no DDR5 RAM or DDR4 RAM but no DDR4 motherboard.
