G.SKILL Ripjaws M5 RGB Series DDR5 RAM (Intel XMP 3.0) 96GB (2x48GB) 5600MT/s CL40-40-40-89 1.25V Desktop Computer Memory U-DIMM - Matte White (F5-5600J4040D48GX2-RM5RW)
Slow JEDEC Baseline (Not Recommended)
Validated by C.R. Vinoth Kumar ยท Founder & Senior Editor
This kit runs at loose JEDEC default timings (CL40 or slower). CL40/CL48 speeds indicate lower-binned DRAM chips which create a severe latency bottleneck, reducing CPU frame pacing and game performance by up to 10-15% compared to optimized kits.
