Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 4x24GB vs Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6400 2x48GB in detail

True latency

Both kits land on 10.00 ns. Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 4x24GB gets there at 6000 MT/s at CL30, Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6400 2x48GB at 6400 MT/s at CL32. CAS latency counts clock cycles rather than time, so a higher clock paired with a looser CAS number arrives at the same place — which is why these two spec sheets look different and the memory does not.

Transfer rate

Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6400 2x48GB carries the higher rating, 6400 MT/s to 6000 MT/s for Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 4x24GB — 51200 MB/s per module against 48000 MB/s. That is peak transfer rate, not access time: a higher clock is reached by counting more cycles for each access, which is why the CAS numbers differ too and why the true latency above is the directly comparable figure.

Kit layout

Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 4x24GB ships as 4 × 24GB, Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6400 2x48GB ships as 2 × 48GB. A real difference, and not a ranking: more sticks fill more channels on a board that has them, while fewer sticks leave slots free for adding later. Which suits comes down to the board and to whether more memory is planned.

Lighting and timings

On lighting: Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 4x24GB is published with no RGB lighting, and Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6400 2x48GB is published with no RGB lighting. On the full timing tuple — the numbers after CAS — Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 4x24GB is 30-36-36-76, and Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6400 2x48GB is 32-40-40-84.

Which to buy

The site holds no current price for at least one of these, so there is no buying answer here; the specifications do not settle it either, since both reconcile to 10.00 ns of true latency. The sections above are what is left to choose on.
