Corsair Vengeance DDR5-4800 SODIMM 1x16GB vs TeamGroup Elite DDR5-5600 SODIMM 2x8GB in detail
True latency
TeamGroup Elite DDR5-5600 SODIMM 2x8GB is the lower-latency kit at 16.43 ns, against 16.67 ns for Corsair Vengeance DDR5-4800 SODIMM 1x16GB — a difference of 0.24 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. Corsair Vengeance DDR5-4800 SODIMM 1x16GB runs 4800 MT/s at CL40; TeamGroup Elite DDR5-5600 SODIMM 2x8GB runs 5600 MT/s at CL46.
Transfer rate
TeamGroup Elite DDR5-5600 SODIMM 2x8GB is rated 5600 MT/s against 4800 MT/s for Corsair Vengeance DDR5-4800 SODIMM 1x16GB — 44800 MB/s per module, against 38400 MB/s. That is peak transfer rate, not access time: reaching a higher clock costs more cycles on each access, which is why the CAS numbers differ too, and why the true latency above is the figure that compares directly.
