It's as basic as that — so you know what to look for in the stores, and then we move on to everything else.

Here we have the DIMMs after unpacking. These are 32 GB (2x16GB) 6000 MHz DIMMs in a kit; cool that the PCB is black as most motherboards have a black PCB as well these days. Intel XMP version 2.0 is also supported, but AMD EXPO compatible memory is what matters. here your AMD AM5 PC will be tweaked to the best timings and performance.

As you might have noticed from that sticker, this kit can manage latencies of CL30-38-38-96 at 1.35 Volts, and that fast latency for this type of memory (DDR5) is alright. For optimal stability, we do recommend you stick to the manufacturer's suggested settings at default SPD or that preconfigured profile. We appreciate the black PCB and the shiny heat spreader; this is a beautiful kit both aesthetically and in terms of styling (hey, it matters in a high-end stylish looking system).

We recommend 8GB as a bare minimum in a PC these days, 16GB for a little extra in your spicy gaming rig, 32GB for those who use memory-intensive applications / perform memory-intensive transcoding and content creation, and 64GB for those who have specific workloads and Ryzen Threadripper series 3000 processors. Starting with DDR5, the trend is shifting to 32GB for high-end and enthusiast-class PCs though.

Not the kit we have, but G>Skill will also offer the RGB version at a slight price premium.
