Crucial CT8G56C46U5.M4G1 8GB Review
The Crucial CT8G56C46U5.M4G1 is an 8GB DDR5-5600 desktop module, another part-number variant of Crucial's bare CT8G56C46U5 spec.
We'd treat this exactly like Crucial's other CT8G56C46U5 suffix variants in this catalog, same 8GB/5600MT/s/CL46 spec, just a different SPD/vendor code.
Performance
5600MT/s CL46 puts true latency around 16.4ns at plain JEDEC timings with no XMP profile, consistent with the rest of Crucial's bare CT-series desktop lineup at this speed.
Comparison to Alternatives
This is the same part as Crucial's CT8G56C46U5.C4D already in this catalog, buy whichever suffix is in stock. For double the capacity at the same speed and timings, Crucial's CT16G56C46U5.M8D1 uses the identical spec at 16GB.
