Flare X5 16 GB DDR5 6000 module
This single 16 GB DDR5 DIMM runs at 6000 MT/s with timings of 36-36-36-96 at 1.35 V. It carries both AMD EXPO and Intel XMP 3.0 profiles and uses a black low-profile heat spreader. The 288-pin unbuffered design targets mainstream desktop builders.
33 mm low-profile DDR5 for compact AMD
The 33 mm height clears most large CPU coolers and suits small-form-factor cases. It is validated for AMD 600 series, 800 series, B650, B850, X670 and X870 chipsets plus Intel 600, 700 and 800 series platforms. Systems that require ECC or registered memory should choose a different kit.
Standard 288-pin installation
Insert the module into the primary DDR5 slot until the retention clips click. Enable the EXPO profile on Ryzen platforms or the XMP 3.0 profile on Intel platforms in the BIOS to reach the rated 6000 MT/s. The most common issue is leaving the profile disabled, which leaves the memory at JEDEC default speeds.

Questions about this item
Does my motherboard need a DDR5 288-pin slot for this Flare X5 module?
Yes, the stick is a 288-pin DDR5 6000 DIMM, so the board must provide a DDR5 288-pin socket to accept it.
Will the 33 mm low-profile height clear the large air cooler I already use?
The 33 mm module height is designed for tight spaces and typically clears most oversized CPU coolers without interference.
How do I confirm the kit is running at 6000 MT/s with CL36 timings after I enable EXPO in the BIOS?
Open CPU-Z or the BIOS memory tab; you should see 6000 MT/s data rate and 36-36-36-96 timings at 1.35 V when EXPO is active.
