Crucial DDR5-5600 Desktop Memory 2x16GB vs Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 1x32GB in detail
True latency
Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 1x32GB is the lower-latency kit at 14.29 ns, against 16.43 ns for Crucial DDR5-5600 Desktop Memory 2x16GB — a difference of 2.14 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. Crucial DDR5-5600 Desktop Memory 2x16GB runs 5600 MT/s at CL46; Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 1x32GB runs 5600 MT/s at CL40.
Transfer rate
Both kits are rated 5600 MT/s, which is 44800 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.
Kit layout
Crucial DDR5-5600 Desktop Memory 2x16GB ships as 2 × 16GB and Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 1x32GB ships as 2 × 16GB — the same number of sticks either way, so both populate a board's slots identically.
Voltage
Crucial DDR5-5600 Desktop Memory 2x16GB is specified at 1.1 V and Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 1x32GB at 1.25 V. That is the supply each kit's published profile asks the board for.
