ADATA XPG, a fast-growing provider of systems, components, and peripherals for Gamers, E-sports Pros, and Tech Enthusiasts, today announces the XPG CASTER DDR5 DRAM series. The XPG CASTER, which comes with and without RGB lighting, is rated for 7000 MT/s and comes equipped with On-Die ECC and PMIC for enhanced stability and reliability. Both the RGB and non-RGB variants feature capacities of 16 GB.

Running at 7000 MT/s, the XPG CASTER is a new breed of DDR5 that is over two times faster than standard DDR4 DRAM. With blazing-fast data transfer rates, users will enjoy a smoother and seamless gaming experience. With support for Intel XMP 3.0, overclocking is incredibly and straightforward. It allows users to avoid cumbersome BIOS settings and never-ending adjustment of overclocking parameters.



The XPG CASTER series is also equipped with built-in On-Die ECC for real-time error correction and Power Management Integrated Circuits (PMIC) for enhanced stability and reliability.

Futuristic Flair
With their steel gray heat sinks, bold triangular RGB light※, and streamlined shapes, XPG CASTER series DRAM exude a sense of speed, sophistication, and futuristic styling. Users can set the RGB lighting the way they want it. They can choose from different effects (static, breathing, and comet) or sync the lights with their favorite songs via Music Mode. All this can be done through RGB control software from all the major motherboard brands.

All-New XPG HUNTER DDR5
In addition to the XPG CASTER series DDR5 DRAM, XPG will also launch the all-new XPG HUNTER DDR5 DRAM later this year. This new module is the successor to the XPG HUNTER DDR4 DRAM and offers upgraded performance of 5200MT/s and a refreshed heat sink design.

Hook me up! Considering only a few MB have QVL above 6400, this might be hard to run.

Likely another phantom product. DDR5 availability is so poor that it is pointless to "release/announce" a new DDR5 product. It is like saying, "Hey, I have this product, but you can't buy it."
Exactly. Week after week we see all these super duper ddr5 modules hit the scene but not even reviewers are getting any. What a waste of space.

I'm just now getting 6000 samples. But if no one can buy it.... Well at least a review will be around when they can.

I'm guessing 7000 MT/s = 7000Mhz.
If those are CAS40, there are actually not that bad.
