Lexar THOR OC LD5U16G60C32LG 16GB DDR5-6000 CL32 Review
Looking for a no-RGB Lexar module at AM5's native speed
this THOR OC module runs DDR5-6000 CL32, notably tighter than the line's entry-speed 5600MT/s SKU in this catalog, at a compact 41mm heatsink height.
Performance
CL32 at 6000MT/s is 10.7ns true latency, a meaningful step up from the THOR OC LD5U16G56C36LG's 12.9ns in this catalog, at AM5's native ratio speed.
Compatibility
The 41mm heatsink height leaves generous clearance for tall air coolers, and the lack of RGB means no software or lighting sync to configure.
