Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5-7000 2x16GB vs Patriot Viper Venom DDR5-7000 2x16GB 7400 CL36 RGB in detail
True latency
Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5-7000 2x16GB is the lower-latency kit at 9.71 ns, against 9.73 ns for Patriot Viper Venom DDR5-7000 2x16GB 7400 CL36 RGB — a difference of 0.02 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. Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5-7000 2x16GB runs 7000 MT/s at CL34; Patriot Viper Venom DDR5-7000 2x16GB 7400 CL36 RGB runs 7400 MT/s at CL36.
Transfer rate
Patriot Viper Venom DDR5-7000 2x16GB 7400 CL36 RGB is rated 7400 MT/s against 7000 MT/s for Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5-7000 2x16GB — 59200 MB/s per module, against 56000 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
Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5-7000 2x16GB ships as 2 × 16GB and Patriot Viper Venom DDR5-7000 2x16GB 7400 CL36 RGB ships as 2 × 16GB — the same number of sticks either way, so both populate a board's slots identically.
Lighting
On the lighting question: Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5-7000 2x16GB is published with RGB lighting, and Patriot Viper Venom DDR5-7000 2x16GB 7400 CL36 RGB is published with RGB lighting.
Which to buy
