Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 2x8GB vs Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB in detail
True latency
Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 2x8GB is the lower-latency kit at 10.00 ns, against 13.75 ns for Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB — a difference of 3.75 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. Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 2x8GB runs 3200 MT/s at CL16; Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB runs 3200 MT/s at CL22.
Transfer rate
Both kits are rated 3200 MT/s, which is 25600 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
Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 2x8GB ships as 2 × 8GB and Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB ships as 2 × 8GB — the same number of sticks either way, so both populate a board's slots identically.
Voltage
Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 2x8GB is specified at 1.35 V and Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB at 1.2 V. That is the supply each kit's published profile asks the board for.
Lighting, timings and ECC
On the lighting question: Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 2x8GB does not have RGB lighting, and Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB does not have RGB lighting. On the full timing tuple, the numbers that follow CAS: Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 2x8GB runs 16-18-18-38, and Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB does not publish one. On error correction: the catalog does not state whether Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 2x8GB supports it, and Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB is published with no ECC. Whether ECC is worth having depends on the platform as much as the modules — the board and the CPU have to support it too.
Which to buy
At least one of these kits has no tracked price right now, so this page has no buying answer to give: which is worth more depends on what each costs, and that is exactly what is missing. On specifications alone, Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 2x8GB has the lower true latency at 10.00 ns.
Common questions about this pair
- Is Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 2x8GB faster than Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB?
- Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 2x8GB is, on true latency: 10.00 ns against 13.75 ns. Silicon Power XPOWER Turbine DDR4-3200 2x8GB runs 3200 MT/s at CL16 and Timetec Premium DDR4-3200 UDIMM 2x8GB runs 3200 MT/s at CL22; the CAS numbers alone do not settle it, because they count clock cycles rather than time.
