DDR5 Test system and installation …

The test system was set up with an MSI MPG X670E Carbon WiFi AM5 motherboard, an AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D CPU and a Seasonic Prime TX-1300 ATX 3.0 power supply unit.

After the installation, we were informed that new RAM bars had been installed and that we should either adjust the settings in the UEFI or simply load the default values.

After selecting the first EXPO profile in the UEFI, the memory is recognized correctly and was able to boot without any problems.

The bars were also read out perfectly under Windows …

… and also presents all the other options.

Now let’s take a look at some memory benchmarks.

AIDA64 Benchmark …

Although it is not even a top model on the current memory market, the modules achieve remarkable read and write values, as you can see here in the AIDA64 Cache & Memory Benchmark (AIDA64 Download).

Frequency Timing Memory voltage Memory read throughput Memory write throughput Memory latency
3200 MHz 38-40-40-84 1.35 Volt 81959 MB/s 85819 MB/s 76.7 ns

Overclocking …

Unfortunately, or should we say fortunately, we can deal with this chapter quite quickly. The description “overclocking” is already in the name of the kit. This does not mean that this kit is particularly suitable for overclocking, but that it is already particularly well overclocked. We can already see how well here.

Chips are installed that are only specified up to 5600 MHz. A good selection showed that this kit still runs stably with 1.35 V at 6400 MHz. And so even the smallest overclocking attempts were met with an immediate response.

DDR5 Temperatur …

Thanks to the heatspreaders already installed and the moderate voltage of 1.35 V, the bars only reach 40°C even under load.

DDR5 Gaming …

There were no weaknesses in gaming either. The 32 GB RAM should be sufficient for all current games on the market. Of course, more is always possible, especially with regard to flight simulators. But of course no one is stopping you from adding another kit if things get tight. Forza Horizon 5 definitely didn’t complain about the use of the fast RAM and proved this with the usual fast and fluid gaming experience.

This brings us to our conclusion.
