    Don't consider these for an AMD Ryzen based build, the CL40 will kill the performance!

    Great deal for an Intel based PC though which will not be impacted by the trimmings as much. (edited)

    Explanation of CAS Latency in relation to MHz or MT/s >

    CAS Latency is expressed in clock cycles, so don't be fooled by higher numbers. A higher number at a higher frequency can very well translate to the same absolute latency (in nanoseconds)

    CL 16 at a transfer rate of 3200 MT/s translates to 10 ns

    CL 38 at a transfer rate of 5200 MT/s translates to 14.6 ns

    CL 40 at a transfer rate of 6000 MT/s translates to 13.3 ns

    While that is a bit higher, you have to take into account that DDR5 is still a very new standard. We didn't have CL 16 DDR4 right at the start either.

    ~edit: Performance benefits depend on how latency vs bandwidth sensitive your use case is. If your use case primarily requires low latency (e.g. many small transfers) DDR5 might provide no benefit at all (at least for now). If it is bandwidth sensitive (e.g. few large transfers) the much higher transfer rate is going to benefit you.

    E.g. while 13.3 vs 10 ns is a 33% increase in latency, your transfer at 6000 MT/s runs 87% faster than a 3200 MT/s, which might very well be enough to make up for the increased latency before the transfer started.

    Wow 32gb 5600 was ~130 and that was a deal a month ago...

    Memory and SSD falling like hailstones!

    I bought the RGB version of this RAM for £150 in October. That was a super deal back then

    these most likely based on samsung ICs, will be difficult to tighten those timings - kingstons 5600-6000 will be a better buy most of them based on hynix ICs, can easily go 6000 cl30 at stock xmp voltage. (edited)

    Is this actually a misprice then

    Both MHz and MT/s are Good Metrics for Measuring RAM Speed. Both frequency (MHz) and data rate (MT/s) are good metrics for measuring RAM speed. MHz measures RAM speed by how many times it can switch voltage per second, while MT/s measures RAM speed by how much data it can transfer per second.

    Although RAM speed is currently advertised in MHz, even though the numbers mean MT/s, as long as it communicates to you how fast your RAM is running, this shouldn't be a problem. The best thing to do is to ignore the labeling metric and just stick with the numbers
