On AM5 it is the speed Ryzen's memory controller runs at a 1:1 ratio with the infinity fabric, which is where the platform is fastest; on Intel it is a well-supported step above the JEDEC baseline that most boards handle without argument. Viper Elite 5 Ultra wraps that in a low-profile black heat spreader with a diffused addressable RGB bar that syncs with ASUS Aura, MSI Mystic Light, Gigabyte RGB Fusion and ASRock Polychrome, so the lighting matches the rest of the build rather than fighting it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe honest caveat\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is one module. A gaming PC running a single DDR5 stick operates in single channel and gives up a large slice of memory bandwidth, which shows up directly in average framerates and more sharply in 1% lows. If you are building from scratch, buy the 2x16GB kit instead; a factory-matched pair is validated to run together at the rated speed, and two loose sticks are not. This module makes sense when you already own an identical one, or when you are deliberately buying one now and one later. Also note that 16GB total is the floor for modern titles, not a comfortable amount.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6000MHz rated speed, the practical sweet spot for AM5 and modern Intel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAddressable RGB light bar with sync support across the major board vendors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-profile black aluminium heat spreader for cooler clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-screened DRAM with on-die ECC for stability at rated speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBacked by Patriot's Limited Lifetime Warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSPECIFICATIONS:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: VEUR516G6036\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCapacity: 16GB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKit configuration: Single module (1x16GB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMemory type: DDR5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpeed: 6000MHz (rated profile speed)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCAS latency: Per the module's XMP\/EXPO profile; refer to the SPD in BIOS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVoltage: 1.1V nominal, typically 1.35V under the rated 6000MHz profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForm factor: 288-pin DDR5 UDIMM (desktop)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeat spreader: Low-profile black aluminium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRGB: Yes, addressable light bar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eXMP\/EXPO support: XMP 3.0 (Intel) and EXPO (AMD); 4800MHz base until enabled\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: Limited Lifetime Warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWHAT'S IN THE BOX:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x Patriot Viper Elite 5 Ultra RGB 16GB DDR5 6000MHz module\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eViper Gaming case badge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnti-static retail packaging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Patriot?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eViper Gaming is Patriot's enthusiast arm, and its DDR5 modules are hand-screened and validated on both AMD and Intel platforms before they ship.
