ADATA XPG Lancer NEON RGB DDR5-8000 2x16GB vs Patriot Viper Elite 5 Ultra DDR5-6000 2x16GB in detail
True latency
Patriot Viper Elite 5 Ultra DDR5-6000 2x16GB is the lower-latency kit at 9.33 ns against 9.50 ns for ADATA XPG Lancer NEON RGB DDR5-8000 2x16GB, 0.17 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. ADATA XPG Lancer NEON RGB DDR5-8000 2x16GB runs 8000 MT/s at CL38; Patriot Viper Elite 5 Ultra DDR5-6000 2x16GB runs 6000 MT/s at CL28.
Transfer rate
ADATA XPG Lancer NEON RGB DDR5-8000 2x16GB carries the higher rating, 8000 MT/s to 6000 MT/s for Patriot Viper Elite 5 Ultra DDR5-6000 2x16GB — 64000 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.
Kit layout
ADATA XPG Lancer NEON RGB DDR5-8000 2x16GB ships as 2 × 16GB and Patriot Viper Elite 5 Ultra DDR5-6000 2x16GB ships as 2 × 16GB — the same number of sticks on both sides, so they populate a board's slots the same way.
Voltage
ADATA XPG Lancer NEON RGB DDR5-8000 2x16GB is specified at 1.45 V and Patriot Viper Elite 5 Ultra DDR5-6000 2x16GB at 1.4 V. That is the supply each kit's published profile requests from the board.
Lighting and timings
On lighting: ADATA XPG Lancer NEON RGB DDR5-8000 2x16GB has RGB lighting, and Patriot Viper Elite 5 Ultra DDR5-6000 2x16GB is published with no RGB lighting. On the full timing tuple — the numbers after CAS — ADATA XPG Lancer NEON RGB DDR5-8000 2x16GB publishes none, and Patriot Viper Elite 5 Ultra DDR5-6000 2x16GB is 28-40-40-100.
