G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo RGB DDR5-6000 2x48GB CL28 vs Kingston FURY Renegade RGB DDR5-6400 2x48GB in detail

True latency

G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo RGB DDR5-6000 2x48GB CL28 is the lower-latency kit at 9.33 ns against 10.00 ns for Kingston FURY Renegade RGB DDR5-6400 2x48GB, 0.67 ns between them. That is the figure that reconciles the two spec sheets: a CAS number counts cycles, and cycles mean nothing apart from the rate they are counted at. G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo RGB DDR5-6000 2x48GB CL28 runs 6000 MT/s at CL28; Kingston FURY Renegade RGB DDR5-6400 2x48GB runs 6400 MT/s at CL32.

Transfer rate

Kingston FURY Renegade RGB DDR5-6400 2x48GB carries the higher rating, 6400 MT/s to 6000 MT/s for G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo RGB DDR5-6000 2x48GB CL28 — 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

G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo RGB DDR5-6000 2x48GB CL28 ships as 2 × 48GB and Kingston FURY Renegade RGB DDR5-6400 2x48GB ships as 2 × 48GB — the same number of sticks on both sides, so they populate a board's slots the same way.

Lighting, timings and ECC

On lighting: G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo RGB DDR5-6000 2x48GB CL28 has RGB lighting, and Kingston FURY Renegade RGB DDR5-6400 2x48GB has RGB lighting. On the full timing tuple — the numbers after CAS — G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo RGB DDR5-6000 2x48GB CL28 is 28-36-36-96, and Kingston FURY Renegade RGB DDR5-6400 2x48GB publishes none. On error correction: G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo RGB DDR5-6000 2x48GB CL28 is published without ECC, and the catalog does not state whether Kingston FURY Renegade RGB DDR5-6400 2x48GB has it. ECC is a board and CPU feature as much as a module one, so it is worth having only where the platform can use it.

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, G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo RGB DDR5-6000 2x48GB CL28 is the quicker at 9.33 ns of true latency.

Common questions about this pair
