16GB DDR5 6000 CL38 module

This single 16GB DDR5 6000 CL38 module targets AMD and Intel desktop builders who want a straightforward capacity upgrade. It plugs into a standard 288-pin DIMM slot and runs at 1.35V with an AMD EXPO and Intel XMP 3.0 profile for easy configuration. The gray aluminum heatspreader keeps the PCB cool inside compact cases.

Sustained load behaviour

Tightly-screened high-frequency chips maintain the rated 6000 MT/s data rate during extended rendering or compile workloads. Onboard voltage regulation delivers stable power to each IC so timings of 38-48-48-96 remain consistent without manual tuning. The module operates at the advertised CL38 latency throughout long sessions.

Build quality and daily use

A solid aluminum heatspreader covers the module, providing durable thermal transfer while clearing most CPU coolers. The low-profile height fits tight motherboard layouts and leaves room for large air towers. No RGB lighting is present, so the gray finish stays neutral in any build aesthetic.

Questions about this item

Will this single 16 GB DDR5 module run at 6000 MT/s on my AMD B650 board without manual tuning?

Yes — the module carries an AMD EXPO profile rated at 6000 MT/s with timings of 38-48-48-96 at 1.35 V, so enabling EXPO in the BIOS applies those settings automatically.

Is the gray aluminum heatspreader low-profile enough to clear a large tower CPU cooler?

The Vengeance heatspreader is designed for broad cooler compatibility; its compact height fits under most tower coolers, but you should verify the cooler’s specified RAM clearance against the module’s physical dimensions.

Can I add a second identical stick later to run dual-channel on an Intel Z790 platform?

Absolutely — buying a second CMK16GX5M1D6000Z38 gives you a matched 2 × 16 GB kit, and the modules also include Intel XMP 3.0 profiles for 6000 MT/s operation on Z790 boards.
