Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB DDR5-6000 2x16GB 5200 CL40 vs TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Alpha DDR5-5600 2x16GB in detail
True latency
TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Alpha DDR5-5600 2x16GB is the lower-latency kit at 14.29 ns against 15.38 ns for Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB DDR5-6000 2x16GB 5200 CL40, 1.10 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. Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB DDR5-6000 2x16GB 5200 CL40 runs 5200 MT/s at CL40; TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Alpha DDR5-5600 2x16GB runs 5600 MT/s at CL40.
Transfer rate
TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Alpha DDR5-5600 2x16GB carries the higher rating, 5600 MT/s to 5200 MT/s for Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB DDR5-6000 2x16GB 5200 CL40 — 44800 MB/s per module against 41600 MB/s. That is peak transfer rate, not access time. Both kits are published at CL40, 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
Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB DDR5-6000 2x16GB 5200 CL40 ships as 2 × 16GB and TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Alpha DDR5-5600 2x16GB ships as 2 × 16GB — the same number of sticks on both sides, so they populate a board's slots the same way.
Lighting
On lighting: Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB DDR5-6000 2x16GB 5200 CL40 has RGB lighting, and TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Alpha DDR5-5600 2x16GB is published with no RGB lighting.
