Memory Kit Specifications / Comparison

Initial Setup

Snapping some photos of the memory while powered on gives us an idea of what to expect from the RGB lighting implementation. KLEVV CRAS XR5 reviewed previously had a unique diffuser, while the CRAS V in this review takes a fairly standard approach. Individual LEDs cannot be seen through the diffuser, but the space in between is distinctly darker. This does not change based on the viewing angle. Though, unless a static color option is chosen, it is likely to go unnoticed.

Enabling XMP Profile

This KLEVV CRAS V RGB DDR5-6400 memory kit reviewed today had no stability issues during the main testing phase. Though, it should noted that this kit is reaching into the limits of what the AMD Ryzen 7000 processor's internal memory controller (IMC) can handle (6200-6400 MT/s) in a 1:1 ratio. Therefore, this memory kit is recommended to be paired only with an Intel 12th or 13th Gen CPU for maximum compatibility between different motherboards. For AMD users, it is ideal to follow the guidelines set by the motherboard manufacturer QVL lists for best chances of success. Updating the motherboard BIOS to the newest version will help with higher-speed memory kit support for those who are experiencing issues for AMD motherboards paired with Ryzen 7000 series processors.
