Crucial RAM 16GB Kit (2x8GB) DDR5 4800MHz CL40 Desktop Memory CT2K8G48C40U5

Product Information

Designed with on-die ECC (ODECC) 8 at the component level for long-term stability, Crucial DDR5 is engineered to maintain the same reliability as the previous generation, even with the rigorous demands of next-gen computing.

Taking speed, capacity and reliability even further, DDR5 arrives with an arsenal of enhanced features, like on-die ECC (ODECC) for improved stability at extreme speeds, dual 32-bit subchannels for increased efficiency and an on-module power management integrated circuit (PMIC) to provide juice where it’s needed most. Most announcements for DDR5 RAM coming out in 2021 say that the sticks will have speeds of around 4,800MHz or higher.His work has also appeared online at The Washington Post, ABC News, MSNBC, Reuters, Macworld, Yahoo Tech, Tech. When we published that review, which was prior to Alder Lake's release we had yet to see what DDR5 pricing and availability looked like, and were forced to comment based on feedback we had received from retailers and manufacturers. The UL Procyon benchmark, which runs a consistent, repeatable workload on a licensed install of Adobe Premiere Pro, shows that more bandwidth can help matters, with DDR5-4800 taking the win there. With Intel's "Alder Lake" 12th Generation desktop processors, we have the debut of a new memory standard in consumer PCs: DDR5, which is used by many of the motherboards that support the new chips.

Depending on the games you play, DDR5 memory can offer little to no performance gain, and this will be true for most titles. Today, you’ll mostly only find ECC used in servers and workstations, because it’s done for mission critical reasons.Real-world applications, however, often use a rapid succession of small transfers to and from memory, where the time it takes to open and close memory cells is at least as important as how quickly the data is transferred once those cells are open.

Although this data is based on our easier to execute bot match, the 128 player modes don't see any improvement with the higher bandwidth DDR5 memory either. Rather, this game dips into the system memory quite heavily and as a result we're seeing up to 22% greater performance at 1440p when looking at the 1% lows. Pricing aside, DDR5 has little to offer over DDR4 in today's games with an Alder Lake processor for the most part.Limited lifetime warranty is valid everywhere except Germany and France, where the warranty is valid for 10 years from the date of purchase. DDR5 will offer up to 2x the effective bandwidth when compared to its predecessor DDR4, helping relieve this bandwidth per core crunch. To make sure a graphics card (GPU) does not bottleneck, optimal performance between the CPU and RAM is vital.
