ADATA Premier DDR5-5600 1x16GB vs Patriot Viper Venom DDR5-6000 1x16GB CL30 RGB in detail
True latency
Patriot Viper Venom DDR5-6000 1x16GB CL30 RGB is the lower-latency kit at 10.00 ns, against 16.43 ns for ADATA Premier DDR5-5600 1x16GB — a difference of 6.43 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. ADATA Premier DDR5-5600 1x16GB runs 5600 MT/s at CL46; Patriot Viper Venom DDR5-6000 1x16GB CL30 RGB runs 6000 MT/s at CL30.
Transfer rate
Patriot Viper Venom DDR5-6000 1x16GB CL30 RGB is rated 6000 MT/s against 5600 MT/s for ADATA Premier DDR5-5600 1x16GB — 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
ADATA Premier DDR5-5600 1x16GB ships as 1 × 16GB, Patriot Viper Venom DDR5-6000 1x16GB CL30 RGB ships as 2 × 8GB. That is 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 a later addition. Which suits depends on the board and on whether more memory is planned.
Voltage
ADATA Premier DDR5-5600 1x16GB is specified at 1.1 V and Patriot Viper Venom DDR5-6000 1x16GB CL30 RGB at 1.35 V. That is the supply each kit's published profile asks the board for.
Lighting and timings
On the lighting question: ADATA Premier DDR5-5600 1x16GB does not have RGB lighting, and Patriot Viper Venom DDR5-6000 1x16GB CL30 RGB is published with RGB lighting. On the full timing tuple, the numbers that follow CAS: ADATA Premier DDR5-5600 1x16GB does not publish one, and Patriot Viper Venom DDR5-6000 1x16GB CL30 RGB runs 30-40-40-76.
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, Patriot Viper Venom DDR5-6000 1x16GB CL30 RGB is the quicker at 10.00 ns of true latency.
Common questions about this pair
- Is ADATA Premier DDR5-5600 1x16GB faster than Patriot Viper Venom DDR5-6000 1x16GB CL30 RGB?
- Patriot Viper Venom DDR5-6000 1x16GB CL30 RGB is, on true latency: 10.00 ns against 16.43 ns. ADATA Premier DDR5-5600 1x16GB runs 5600 MT/s at CL46 and Patriot Viper Venom DDR5-6000 1x16GB CL30 RGB runs 6000 MT/s at CL30; the CAS numbers alone do not settle it, because they count clock cycles rather than time.
