Patriot Viper Elite 5 16 GB (1x16GB DDR5-5600)

The Patriot Viper Elite 5 16 GB comes as a single module with 16GB of DDR5 on board. Operating voltage sits at 1.1V, friendly to low-power and quiet builds. It is specced for 5600 MT/s with a CAS latency of 36, working out to a true latency of about 12.9ns. As a high-end DDR5 kit, it slots naturally into current AM5 and LGA1851 platforms.

Once memory clears 6000 MT/s, frequency gains taper off, so the 16GB on offer here is the spec that counts for modern AAA titles. At $229.99 it sits in the high-end memory kit bracket.
