Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 2x16GB vs Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-6000 1x32GB CL30 in detail
True latency
Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-6000 1x32GB CL30 is the lower-latency kit at 10.00 ns, against 14.29 ns for Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 2x16GB — a difference of 4.29 ns. That figure is what reconciles the two spec sheets: CAS latency counts clock cycles, so it only means something next to the clock it counts. Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 2x16GB runs 5600 MT/s at CL40; Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-6000 1x32GB CL30 runs 6000 MT/s at CL30.
Transfer rate
Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-6000 1x32GB CL30 is rated 6000 MT/s against 5600 MT/s for Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 2x16GB — 48000 MB/s per module, against 44800 MB/s. That is peak transfer rate, not access time: reaching a higher clock costs more cycles on each access, which is why the CAS numbers differ too, and why the true latency above is the figure that compares directly.
Kit layout
Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 2x16GB ships as 2 × 16GB and Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-6000 1x32GB CL30 ships as 2 × 16GB — the same number of sticks either way, so both populate a board's slots identically.
Voltage
Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 2x16GB is specified at 1.25 V and Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-6000 1x32GB CL30 at 1.4 V. That is the supply each kit's published profile asks the board for.
Lighting and timings
On the lighting question: Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 2x16GB does not have RGB lighting, and Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-6000 1x32GB CL30 does not have RGB lighting. On the full timing tuple, the numbers that follow CAS: Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 2x16GB runs 40-40-40, and Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-6000 1x32GB CL30 runs 30-36-36.
Which to buy
The site holds no current price for at least one of these, so no buying answer follows: which is worth more turns on what each costs, and that figure is the one missing. On the specifications alone, Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-6000 1x32GB CL30 is the quicker at 10.00 ns of true latency.
Common questions about this pair
- Is Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 2x16GB faster than Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-6000 1x32GB CL30?
- Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-6000 1x32GB CL30 is, on true latency: 10.00 ns against 14.29 ns. Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 2x16GB runs 5600 MT/s at CL40 and Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-6000 1x32GB CL30 runs 6000 MT/s at CL30; the CAS numbers alone do not settle it, because they count clock cycles rather than time.
