Patriot Signature Line 16GB 5600MHz DDR5 Desktop Memory

A faster plain-Jane DDR5 stick for builders who want bandwidth without the light show.

Quick Specs

• 16GB single DDR5 module (not a dual-channel kit)
• 5600MHz rated speed via XMP/EXPO profile
• 288-pin DDR5 UDIMM with on-module power management
• Bare PCB, no heat spreader and no lighting
• Limited Lifetime Warranty from Patriot

Bandwidth where it counts, nothing where it does not

5600MHz is the speed most current DDR5 platforms are happiest at without any tuning effort: comfortably above the 4800MHz JEDEC baseline, well within what a stock AM5 memory controller or a 13th/14th generation Intel chip handles at one gear ratio. This Signature Line module gives you that speed on a bare PCB with no heat spreader and no RGB, which keeps the price honest and guarantees clearance under any air cooler you care to fit. It is a good pick for a compact build, a workstation, or a machine where the aesthetic budget is zero and the performance budget is not.

Read this before you add it to the cart

It is one module. On its own it runs single channel, and on DDR5 that halves your effective bandwidth. For gaming that is not a subtle difference, it is the kind of thing you see in average framerates and feel in 1% lows. Buy this to pair with an identical existing stick, or buy two, or buy a matched 2x16GB kit that has been factory-validated as a pair. If you are chasing the last few percent in games, a 6000MHz CL30 gaming kit is the better instrument. And 16GB total is the floor for modern titles; 32GB is the sensible build in 2026.

FEATURES:

Why Patriot?

Patriot validates its DDR5 modules across both AMD and Intel platforms before they ship, which is why the Signature Line rarely turns into a BIOS troubleshooting exercise. Every Patriot module from AZonline is genuine stock carrying a Limited Lifetime Warranty.

Note: the rated 5600MHz applies only once XMP or EXPO is enabled in BIOS; out of the box the module boots at 4800MHz. DDR5 requires an AM5 or LGA1700/1851 board with DDR5 slots. Check your board's QVL before ordering.
