Crucial Ballistix DDR4-3200 2x16GB 4400 CL19 vs Timetec Premium DDR4-2666 UDIMM 2x16GB in detail

True latency

Crucial Ballistix DDR4-3200 2x16GB 4400 CL19 is the lower-latency kit at 8.64 ns against 14.25 ns for Timetec Premium DDR4-2666 UDIMM 2x16GB, 5.62 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. Crucial Ballistix DDR4-3200 2x16GB 4400 CL19 runs 4400 MT/s at CL19; Timetec Premium DDR4-2666 UDIMM 2x16GB runs 2666 MT/s at CL19.

Transfer rate

Crucial Ballistix DDR4-3200 2x16GB 4400 CL19 carries the higher rating, 4400 MT/s to 2666 MT/s for Timetec Premium DDR4-2666 UDIMM 2x16GB — 35200 MB/s per module against 21328 MB/s. That is peak transfer rate, not access time. Both kits are published at CL19, so an identical count of cycles simply completes sooner at the higher clock, and the true latency above is the figure that compares directly.

Kit layout

Crucial Ballistix DDR4-3200 2x16GB 4400 CL19 ships as 2 × 16GB and Timetec Premium DDR4-2666 UDIMM 2x16GB ships as 2 × 16GB — the same number of sticks on both sides, so they populate a board's slots the same way.

Voltage

Crucial Ballistix DDR4-3200 2x16GB 4400 CL19 is specified at 1.35 V and Timetec Premium DDR4-2666 UDIMM 2x16GB at 1.2 V. That is the supply each kit's published profile requests from the board.

Lighting and ECC

On lighting: Crucial Ballistix DDR4-3200 2x16GB 4400 CL19 has RGB lighting, and Timetec Premium DDR4-2666 UDIMM 2x16GB is published with no RGB lighting. On error correction: the catalog does not state whether Crucial Ballistix DDR4-3200 2x16GB 4400 CL19 has it, and Timetec Premium DDR4-2666 UDIMM 2x16GB is published without ECC. 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

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 Crucial Ballistix DDR4-3200 2x16GB 4400 CL19 has the lower true latency, 8.64 ns.
