ADATA XPG Gammix D10 DDR4-3200 2x8GB vs Patriot Viper Steel DDR4-3200 1x16GB in detail
True latency
Both kits land on 10.00 ns. The two spec sheets state the same clock and the same CAS grade — 3200 MT/s at CL16 either way — and true latency is those two figures reconciled, so it comes out the same for each.
Transfer rate
Both kits are rated 3200 MT/s — 25600 MB/s per module — and both are published at CL16. The true latency above is computed from exactly those two figures, so it lands in the same place for each.
Price and tracked history
ADATA XPG Gammix D10 DDR4-3200 2x8GB is tracked at 178,05 € — 11,13 € per gigabyte — and Patriot Viper Steel DDR4-3200 1x16GB at 119,99 €, or 7,50 €. Both are 16GB kits, so the totals compare directly: Patriot Viper Steel DDR4-3200 1x16GB is 58,06 € less than ADATA XPG Gammix D10 DDR4-3200 2x8GB. At 178,05 €, ADATA XPG Gammix D10 DDR4-3200 2x8GB is running 0% below its own 90-day median.
Kit layout
ADATA XPG Gammix D10 DDR4-3200 2x8GB ships as 2 × 8GB and Patriot Viper Steel DDR4-3200 1x16GB ships as 2 × 8GB — the same number of sticks either way, so both populate a board's slots identically.
Lighting, timings and ECC
On the lighting question: ADATA XPG Gammix D10 DDR4-3200 2x8GB does not have RGB lighting, and Patriot Viper Steel DDR4-3200 1x16GB does not have RGB lighting. On the full timing tuple, the numbers that follow CAS: ADATA XPG Gammix D10 DDR4-3200 2x8GB runs 16-18-18, and Patriot Viper Steel DDR4-3200 1x16GB runs 16-20-20-40.
