ADATA XPG Lancer Blade DDR5-6000 1x16GB 5200 CL38 vs Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 2x8GB in detail
True latency
Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 2x8GB is the lower-latency kit at 14.29 ns against 14.62 ns for ADATA XPG Lancer Blade DDR5-6000 1x16GB 5200 CL38, 0.33 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 Blade DDR5-6000 1x16GB 5200 CL38 runs 5200 MT/s at CL38; Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 2x8GB runs 5600 MT/s at CL40.
Transfer rate
Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 2x8GB carries the higher rating, 5600 MT/s to 5200 MT/s for ADATA XPG Lancer Blade DDR5-6000 1x16GB 5200 CL38 — 44800 MB/s per module against 41600 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 Blade DDR5-6000 1x16GB 5200 CL38 ships as 2 × 8GB and Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 2x8GB ships as 2 × 8GB — the same number of sticks on both sides, so they populate a board's slots the same way.
Voltage
ADATA XPG Lancer Blade DDR5-6000 1x16GB 5200 CL38 is specified at 1.35 V and Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 2x8GB at 1.25 V. That is the supply each kit's published profile requests from the board.
