I wonder if this also applies to APUs like the Strix Halo?

Strix Halo has a newer IO die with twice as many memory controllers, and a better interconnect to the CPU dies. I'm not sure if the individual memory controllers are much better than on the Zen4/5 desktop IO die; I don't think I've seen a Strix Halo system built to use desktop DIMMs so testing how it handles two DIMMs per channel isn't practical.
