ADATA XPG Lancer Blade RGB AX5U6000C3016G-SLABRBK (16GB/DDR5 6000MHz/CL30/RGB Black/Intel XMP 3.0, AMD EXPO) Review
ADATA XPG Lancer Blade RGB AX5U6000C3016G-SLABRBK 16GB single module DDR5-6000 specs price
Sold as a single 16GB module rather than a matched pair, this Lancer Blade RGB stick targets buyers adding capacity to an existing system or planning to populate a second slot later, while still carrying the same DDR5-6000 CL30 rating and Intel XMP 3.0/AMD EXPO certification as XPG's kitted offerings.
Comparison to Alternatives
Comparison to Alternatives
- XPG Lancer Blade RGB AX5U6000C3016G-DTLABRBK — the matched 2x16GB dual-channel kit version of this exact module for new builds
- Corsair Vengeance SODIMM CMSX16GX5M1A5600C48 — a laptop-form-factor single 16GB module if the build target is a notebook rather than a desktop
Buying Single Modules vs. Matched Kits
Mixing a single module with an existing stick from a different production batch can occasionally cause instability even at matching rated speeds, so this is best suited to systems starting fresh with a single module planned to pair with an identical second unit, rather than mixed-and-matched with memory from another kit or brand.

Expert rating7 / 10
A well-timed single-stick option for staged upgrades, with Lancer Blade's sharper RGB design.
Best for
- Single-stick capacity upgrades for existing DDR5 systems
- Budget SFF builds starting with one module and adding a second later
- Buyers wanting the sharper, blade-style RGB diffuser over standard Lancer RGB
Not for
- Anyone building a new dual-channel system from scratch (buy a matched kit instead)
- Workloads needing more than 16GB from a single module
- ECC/registered memory requirements
