Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 1x16GB vs Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB in detail
True latency
Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 1x16GB is the lower-latency kit at 10.00 ns, against 13.75 ns for Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB — a difference of 3.75 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. Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 1x16GB runs 3200 MT/s at CL16; Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB runs 3200 MT/s at CL22.
Transfer rate
Both kits are rated 3200 MT/s, which is 25600 MB/s per module. Their spec sheets part company on CAS latency rather than on clock, so the true-latency figures above are what separates them.
Price and tracked history
Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 1x16GB is tracked at 106,99 € — 6,69 € per gigabyte — and Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB at 106,99 €, or 6,69 €. The two land on the same total. At 106,99 €, Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 1x16GB is running 11% below its own 90-day median.
Kit layout
Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 1x16GB ships as 2 × 8GB and Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB ships as 2 × 8GB — the same number of sticks either way, so both populate a board's slots identically.
Voltage
Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 1x16GB is specified at 1.35 V and Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB at 1.2 V. That is the supply each kit's published profile asks the board for.
Lighting, timings and ECC
On the lighting question: Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 1x16GB does not have RGB lighting, and Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB does not have RGB lighting. On the full timing tuple, the numbers that follow CAS: Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 1x16GB runs 16-18-18-38, and Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB does not publish one. On error correction: the catalog does not state whether Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 1x16GB supports it, and Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB is published with no ECC. Whether ECC is worth having depends on the platform as much as the modules — the board and the CPU have to support it too.
Which to buy
Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 1x16GB is the quicker of the two at the same tracked price: level with Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB on cost, and at 10.00 ns of true latency against 13.75 ns. Nothing is given up for that — same money, lower latency.
Common questions about this pair
- Is Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 1x16GB faster than Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB?
- Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 1x16GB is, on true latency: 10.00 ns against 13.75 ns. Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 1x16GB runs 3200 MT/s at CL16 and Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB runs 3200 MT/s at CL22; the CAS numbers alone do not settle it, because they count clock cycles rather than time.
- Which one costs less?
- Neither: both are tracked at 106,99 € for the same 16GB.
- Which of these two should I buy?
- Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 1x16GB is the quicker of the two at the same tracked price: level with Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB on cost, and at 10.00 ns of true latency against 13.75 ns. Nothing is given up for that — same money, lower latency.
