Lexar LD5AU016G-5600GA 16GB Review
This single 16GB Lexar module runs DDR5-5600 with no RGB lighting
a plain, budget-tier UDIMM without a named retail sub-line; CAS latency isn't published for this part number, so it's left blank rather than guessed.
Compatibility
At a conservative 5600MT/s with no RGB and no named series, this is a straightforward capacity-and-speed purchase rather than a tuned or styled one.
Comparison to Alternatives
For a documented CAS latency at a similar speed, the Lexar ARES RGB LD5U16G60C34LA in this catalog runs 6000MT/s CL34 with a confirmed timing; this part trades that documentation for a plainer, no-RGB design.
