Review Crucial CUDIMM DDR5-6400 C52 2x16GB Review: Plug-and-Play Paradise for Arrow Lake

[Admin]

Crucial is one of the first to release a DDR5-6400 CUDIMM memory kit, but can it compete against faster rivals?

I'll primarily interested in running memory at JEDEC frequencies, so I'd be curious to know how these stack up against DDR5-5600 memory on Arrow Lake.

~9% more memory bandwidth and that should be the only difference which means that's your maximum performance differential. All of the JEDEC DDR5 DIMMs I've seen use the B profiles so they all have almost identical latency.

I don't see the point in using JEDEC specifications in general unless using ECC, but in the case of ARL it makes even less sense as the platform can be set to profile switch memory so idle/low stress the memory can run base spec and then clock up when needed.
