Corsair Dominator Titanium RGB DDR5-6600 2x16GB 5600 CL36 vs TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Alpha DDR5-5600 2x16GB in detail
True latency
Corsair Dominator Titanium RGB DDR5-6600 2x16GB 5600 CL36 is the lower-latency kit at 12.86 ns against 14.29 ns for TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Alpha DDR5-5600 2x16GB, 1.43 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 Titanium RGB DDR5-6600 2x16GB 5600 CL36 runs 5600 MT/s at CL36; TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Alpha DDR5-5600 2x16GB runs 5600 MT/s at CL40.
Transfer rate
Both kits are rated 5600 MT/s, or 44800 MB/s per module. They part company on CAS latency instead of on clock, so the true-latency figures above are what tells them apart.
Price and tracked history
Corsair Dominator Titanium RGB DDR5-6600 2x16GB 5600 CL36 is tracked at £489.00, or £15.28 per gigabyte; TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Alpha DDR5-5600 2x16GB at £437.06, or £13.66. At the same 32GB, that puts TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Alpha DDR5-5600 2x16GB £51.94 less than Corsair Dominator Titanium RGB DDR5-6600 2x16GB 5600 CL36. Corsair Dominator Titanium RGB DDR5-6600 2x16GB 5600 CL36's £489.00 sits 14% under its own 90-day median. TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Alpha DDR5-5600 2x16GB's £437.06 sits 1% under its own 90-day median.
Kit layout
Corsair Dominator Titanium RGB DDR5-6600 2x16GB 5600 CL36 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, timings and ECC
On lighting: Corsair Dominator Titanium RGB DDR5-6600 2x16GB 5600 CL36 has RGB lighting, and TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Alpha DDR5-5600 2x16GB is published with no RGB lighting. On the full timing tuple — the numbers after CAS — Corsair Dominator Titanium RGB DDR5-6600 2x16GB 5600 CL36 is 32-39-39-76, and TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Alpha DDR5-5600 2x16GB publishes none. On error correction: Corsair Dominator Titanium RGB DDR5-6600 2x16GB 5600 CL36 is published without ECC, and the catalog does not state whether TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Alpha DDR5-5600 2x16GB has it. 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
The two split the axes this page measures, so no one kit is the answer. The lower tracked price belongs to TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Alpha DDR5-5600 2x16GB; the lower true latency to Corsair Dominator Titanium RGB DDR5-6600 2x16GB 5600 CL36, 12.86 ns against 14.29 ns. Weighing money against latency is a decision about the machine, and it stays with the reader.
