Questions buyers ask

DDR5 or DDR4?

It depends on your motherboard; the two aren't interchangeable. AM5 (Ryzen 7000 / 9000) and LGA1851 (Core Ultra 200S) boards take DDR5 only; LGA1700 boards take one or the other, depending on the model.

What speed do I need?

Buy the speed your platform runs well: DDR5-6000 CL30 is the common sweet spot for Ryzen 7000 / 9000, and Intel systems often run faster kits. Turn on XMP (Intel) or EXPO (AMD) in the BIOS to reach the rated speed.

What does CL mean?

CAS latency: how many clock cycles the memory takes to respond. At the same speed, lower is better. True latency in nanoseconds is CL × 2000 ÷ the speed in MT/s, so DDR5-6000 CL30 is 10 ns.

Two sticks or four?

Two sticks give dual-channel bandwidth on desktop platforms. With DDR5, four sticks often force lower speeds, so for 64 GB a 2 × 32 GB kit is usually better than 4 × 16 GB.

DIMM, SO-DIMM, CUDIMM, RDIMM?

DIMMs (UDIMM) are desktop memory; SO-DIMMs are the shorter laptop and mini-PC modules. CUDIMM and CSODIMM add a clock driver for very high speeds on Core Ultra 200. RDIMM and LRDIMM are registered server memory and don't work in desktop boards.
