Does not mix well with RAMs of other brands and speeds

This is great ram. Not flashy with rgb but the quality of the built is on par with the best because it is the best.

Overpriced but it works - let's be real, if you're buying ram, you're building a PC or replacing a dead part. You know these prices are a rip off

Good experience and accurate delivery, I’m very impressed

Memory works great in my NAS unit. Temperature of memory is keeping within acceptable range.

Unfortunately one of the few some what affordable ram sticks you can buy. Just had crucial is leaving the cunsumer ram market for AI

I like crucial the best on eve thing I don’t like RGB so I’m good

FAst reliable memory that was easy to install and use.

Decent for the price. Nothing special but if its ram does the job

Verdict. The Crucial Pro 32GB kit of DDR5-5600 UDIMM RAM is an excellent investment to achieve a significant increase in performance for a desktop computer. Installation. I originally intended to install this on a desktop computer that is two years old in an attempt to improve multi-tasking and responsiveness of this aging computer. However, after looking at the specs for this 32GB kit, it realized that it is only compatible with 12th Gen intel Core processors and AMD Ryzen 7000 series. The Intel processor I had was older that that. So instead, I installed it on a new desktop we have that only came with 8GB of RAM, but upgradable to 128GB of RAM. Installation was simple: open the case, locate the existing RAM, remove the single stick of 8GB DDR-4, and add the two sticks of 16GB (each) of DDR-5. Performance. While 8GB on this newer PC was adequate for day-to-day tasks and running a few programs, performance has been lagging when running too many programs and keeping too many tabs open. After installing the Crucial Pro 32GB kit, lag has completely disappeared... gone! I am able to keep literally every thing open… Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and about 30 browser tabs on Chrome and 20 on Brave. Performance is impeccable, and I am not even using all my memory (getting up to 22GB). Previously, this desktop computer was not used daily because performance was not as good as the other PC, but now it is the best performing computer in the house. Things I love. - Easy installation - Great value for RAM capacity - DDR-5 provides faster speeds - Sharply increases computer performance Overall, this is a great solution to increase RAM on a desktop computer that doesn’t have 32GB, and/or that doesn’t have DDR-5 RAM. I am very happy about this 32GB kit and highly recommend it.

Doesn’t have a Heatspreader so if like mine it will overheat causing orange boot restarts. Although my PC has good airflow it still overheated and caused my pc to restart and/ not start and eventually killed one of the ram sticks.

Crucial memory never disappoint, build quality and chip selection are always top notch.I am using in a new build and this is really some sweet memory chips. The Desktop Memory is a high-performance memory module that promises to deliver impressive speeds and performance to your desktop PC. The modules were as usual well protected and easy install onto your motherboard. The build quality of the RAM is top-notch, the modules are well-made, sturdy and built for longevity. The black design with Crucial logo looks great and look great in my see through PC case and motherboard. Excellent performance, the DDR5 technology in this kit delivered lightning-fast speeds. The 5600MHz clock speed ensures that data transfers happen quickly and efficiently, which is important for demanding applications. The RAM performed flawlessly, delivering fast and responsive performance in my high intensive graphics games and editing programs. The increased speed and performance were immediately noticeable, Motherboard must support DDR5 before purchasing this kit. The DDR5 RAM is pretty costly compared to other RAM available but it's worth the investment for new builds or preconfigured systems as well. DDR5 RAM truly enhances my gaming experience with its enhance speed and performance.

Cas Latency Completely Incorrect. Advertised at cl22. It’s actually cl46 which is more than double. Avoid at all costs

This DDR5 ram is an easy upgrade for motherboards/CPU's that support DDR5. For a while I was on the fence as to whether it's worth the upgrade, and having done it I'd definitely say if you are looking for larger sticks, and fast ram that's stable this DDR5 is well worth it. This ram so far seems to be stable even when overclocked with the XMP3.0 profile. In terms of performance, for video editing, and photo editing I'd say it's definitely worth upgrading. With these sticks I was able to take my system to (all DDR5) 64GB total ram and for the apps that need memory (like video/photo editing) and those that are ram hungry this is worthwhile. The differences you'll notice will vary based on what it is you're doing but you definitely can notice a difference on large UHD clips loaded in to Adobe where seeking is improved/faster. Also, for gaming, I'd say this ram can help you squeeze out a few additional FPS just by upgrading to DDR5, but that will largely depend on the game and how it uses memory. For the apps I use, this ram upgrade seems to be worth it and it does perform as good or faster (as noted) than the DDR4 ram. I'd recommend it and especially this pro ram as it is stable and fast.

I selected this as my desktop only has 16 gigs DDR5-4800. I was getting on some maps for call of duty MW2 90fps with lows around 70fps. installed these and I was getting 100fps with lows around 85-90 on the same maps. Other maps I was getting around 140 tops and drops to about 120 or so. After installing these I was getting over 150fps and drops down to about 135fps. Easy to install. I do not do much video editing, and not enough to tell a difference. I just play fps games mainly and adding these seems to help improve my PC. I have a 13th gen i7-13700 with a RTX 3050 (8gig vram). I have always read more ram is better but did not think it would help out much other than for those who might do video editing or who open up a ton of pages. But to my surprise it did help in gaming as well. It is not that much of a boost. However, for myself, I am glad to have upgraded. I know especially in call of duty MW2 if I go below 60 fps, I feel like I am lagging. So, seeing this help me go from 70 fps to 85+ fps gave me a little more warm and fuzzy. If you are looking to add more ram to your computer and your computer will be able to use this kit, I recommend it.

It came dead on arrival, worked, but cause great instability and caused blue screens every 5-10 minutes

Worst set of ram ive ever had don't waist your money less you just need over priced ram

The product description states this is CAS Latency of 22 but it actually is 46. Don’t get misled like I did. Best Buy should update this.

I tried hooking up to my computer and it wouldn’t work

If you are in the market to upgrade your DIY desktop PC and have been contemplating whether or not to save a few bucks and stick with old DDR4 memory technology, think of it this way - you don’t upgrade your motherboard/CPU/memory every year, so invest for the long term, spend a little extra and go for the 12th or 13th generation Intel chips or AMD Ryzen 7000 series coupled with DDR5 memory, and you’ll be happy for the next few years! Plus DDR5 is much more energy efficient than DDR4 while offering a noticeable performance boost for most applications. That’s where this Crucial Pro 32GB Kit (2x16GB) 5600 MT/s DDR5-5600 UDIMM Desktop Memory comes in. It is from one of the most recognized memory manufacturers and one of the largest semiconductors makers in the world, Micron. They’ve been in business for as long as I can remember and produce quality products that last a long time. They really stand behind their products such as this professional series memory kit that comes with a limited lifetime warranty. So back to the more technical aspects of this memory. Even though it looks similar to DDR4 memory DIMMs, it is not compatible with DDR4 motherboards, it has a different pin-out layout, so please do yourself a favor and don’t try to jam it in your older MoBo, it just won’t work and you are very likely to damage both your mother and memory beyond repair. DDR5 memory and motherboards have been out for more than 6 months now, so there is a good selection out there, but if I were you I would go with at least a mid-range configuration to leverage the high performance nature of this memory. That will enable you to game at higher frame rates or render your graphic designs more smoothly. This memory runs very stable at 5600 MT/s CAS Level 46 but is also downward compatible to lower speeds of 5200 or 4800 if you have an earlier, less capable motherboard that can’t handle 5600 or a stable voltage feed. It also supports the performance recovery and mild overclocking for Intel XMP 3.0 and AMD EXPO technology. All in all, this a reliable, Pro Series choice at a reasonable price, especially when on-sale, so I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to a friend.
