I assume they validated certain DRAM chips when the 395 first came out and they're just not going to validate any more. So newer DRAM is validated for the 495. We can't compare DDR5 and LPDDR5 since they are completely different; if 256 GB DDR5 is possible that doesn't mean anything.

But 192GB lpddr5x on Goron Halo 495 does strongly strongly suggest 256GB would be too. It took some big work to go from 32GB to 64GB dimms, was a long long long time coming. 48GB came latter.

Its very unlikely that with 192GB Gorgon Halo that anything really blocks 256GB Gorgon Halo, or Strix Halo. Higher than 32GB chips are possible and exist.
