Patriot Signature Line DDR5-5600 2x16GB vs Silicon Power Value Gaming DDR5-6000 2x16GB CL36 in detail

True latency

Silicon Power Value Gaming DDR5-6000 2x16GB CL36 is the lower-latency kit at 12.00 ns, against 16.43 ns for Patriot Signature Line DDR5-5600 2x16GB — a difference of 4.43 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. Patriot Signature Line DDR5-5600 2x16GB runs 5600 MT/s at CL46; Silicon Power Value Gaming DDR5-6000 2x16GB CL36 runs 6000 MT/s at CL36.

Transfer rate

Silicon Power Value Gaming DDR5-6000 2x16GB CL36 is rated 6000 MT/s against 5600 MT/s for Patriot Signature Line 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

Patriot Signature Line DDR5-5600 2x16GB ships as 2 × 16GB and Silicon Power Value Gaming DDR5-6000 2x16GB CL36 ships as 2 × 16GB — the same number of sticks either way, so both populate a board's slots identically.

Voltage

Patriot Signature Line DDR5-5600 2x16GB is specified at 1.1 V and Silicon Power Value Gaming DDR5-6000 2x16GB CL36 at 1.35 V. That is the supply each kit's published profile asks the board for.

Lighting and timings

On the lighting question: Patriot Signature Line DDR5-5600 2x16GB does not have RGB lighting, and Silicon Power Value Gaming DDR5-6000 2x16GB CL36 does not have RGB lighting. On the full timing tuple, the numbers that follow CAS: Patriot Signature Line DDR5-5600 2x16GB runs 46-46-46-90, and Silicon Power Value Gaming DDR5-6000 2x16GB CL36 runs 30-38-38-96.

Which to buy

Without a tracked price for both, this page cannot say which to buy — the answer depends on cost, and cost is what is absent. What the specifications do say is that Silicon Power Value Gaming DDR5-6000 2x16GB CL36 has the lower true latency, 12.00 ns.

Common questions about this pair

Is Patriot Signature Line DDR5-5600 2x16GB faster than Silicon Power Value Gaming DDR5-6000 2x16GB CL36?
Silicon Power Value Gaming DDR5-6000 2x16GB CL36 is, on true latency: 12.00 ns against 16.43 ns. Patriot Signature Line DDR5-5600 2x16GB runs 5600 MT/s at CL46 and Silicon Power Value Gaming DDR5-6000 2x16GB CL36 runs 6000 MT/s at CL36; the CAS numbers alone do not settle it, because they count clock cycles rather than time.
Which of these two should I buy?
