G.Skill Flare X5 DDR5-6000

DDR5 · 2x16GB · $449.99 MSRP

Flare X5 shares its exact 30-38-38-96 timings, 1.35V voltage, and 6000 MT/s rating with the Trident Z5 Neo RGB, but drops the RGB lighting and lists at $449.99 — more than double the Neo's $189.68 despite matching performance on paper. That price gap isn't explained by speed or latency, since the two kits are identical there; it comes down to finish rather than anything measurable in the spec sheet. Non-RGB at DDR5-6000, it ends up priced above its own RGB sibling despite offering no lighting in return.
