Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 4x24GB vs Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6400 2x48GB in detail
True latency
Both kits land on 10.00 ns. Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 4x24GB gets there at 6000 MT/s at CL30, Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6400 2x48GB at 6400 MT/s at CL32. CAS latency counts clock cycles rather than time, so a higher clock paired with a looser CAS number arrives at the same place — which is why these two spec sheets look different and the memory does not.
Transfer rate
Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6400 2x48GB carries the higher rating, 6400 MT/s to 6000 MT/s for Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 4x24GB — 51200 MB/s per module against 48000 MB/s. That is peak transfer rate, not access time: a higher clock is reached by counting more cycles for each access, which is why the CAS numbers differ too and why the true latency above is the directly comparable figure.
Price and tracked history
Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 4x24GB is tracked at £1,499.00, or £15.61 per gigabyte; Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6400 2x48GB at £1,772.64, or £18.47. At the same 96GB, that puts Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 4x24GB £273.64 less than Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6400 2x48GB.
Kit layout
Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 4x24GB ships as 4 × 24GB, Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6400 2x48GB ships as 2 × 48GB. A real difference, and not a ranking: more sticks fill more channels on a board that has them, while fewer sticks leave slots free for adding later. Which suits comes down to the board and to whether more memory is planned.
