Room for overclocking
To immediately experience one of the best things about Patriot’s Viper Xtreme 5 DDR5-8000 kit, you can get the 32GB kit for $330. For that price you get 38-48-48-84 2T timings and only need 1.45V to function. Not low enough for AMD, but closer than some kits. If that wasn’t enough to make you consider buying this kit for your Intel system, TweakTown can leave his DDR5-8000 and drop CL down to 36, leaving the timings alone will reduce the frequency to He can pull up to DDR5-8267.
Higher frequencies of DDR5 won’t significantly impact gaming performance, but there are some applications that prefer the extra frequencies. At this price, it makes sense to buy the Viper Xtreme 5 DDR5-8000 kit instead of the lower frequency kit for the same price.
