A Closer Look

Team Group T-Force Delta RGB is available with either White or Black heatspreaders. Carrying over from DDR4, the T-Force Delta series is easily recognizable thanks in part to the unique lightbar across the top and visually sharp angled pattern design. Team Group takes the Night Hawk (DDR4) and T-Force Delta (DDR4), merging them together to create what we see today; a reimagined T-Force Delta series for DDR5.


Team Group has placed the T-Force branding front and center with the Team Group logo above it. On the left is "DDR5 RGB," with "Delta" on the right.


On one side of each DIMM module is the identification sticker listing the SKU, rated XMP operating frequency and applied voltage for said memory profile.


Laying the DIMMs on the side, you can see "T-Force" written in black on one corner. The entire plastic strip in the middle will be illuminated when the system is powered on and lighting can be controlled with supported motherboard software.


The Team Group T-Force Delta RGB DDR5-7200 kit weighs in at 47 grams on the scale. For Z-height, it comes in at 46 mm rounding up.


After taking the heatspreader off, we see that these are single-sided DIMMs with eight 2 GB ICs. This is as expected for a DDR5 32 GB kit since densities increased with DDR5. The thermal pad covers all the memory ICs. This particular kit does have a thermal pad covering the PMIC and surrounding components. It's nice to see Team Group include a thermal pad when many other vendors do not. It becomes extra important for those who will do heavy overvolting!


A closer look at the ICs shows that these are SK Hynix (H5CG48AGBD-X018). Currently, Micron, Samsung, and SK Hynix are the three suppliers of DDR5 ICs. When it comes to higher frequency memory, SK Hynix is currently unmatched and without a direct competitor. Micron's first DDR5 iteration Rev.A only reached a mere 5600 MT/s, with the recently released Rev.G coming in at 6600 MT/s. Samsung has been mostly absent so far, with Samsung B-Die (DDR5) rarely seen in retail kits above 6400 MT/s. While both companies have more revisions in the works, SK Hynix's new A-Die memory is currently the only one breaking the 7000 MT/s retail barrier.

The kit we have here today is using SK Hynix A-Die. It will overclock the highest of all the current memory ICs offerings. With this revision, it does come with a small increase to primary timings as well that we will see in the overclocking section of this review.


With DDR5, one of the major changes is how the motherboard directly provides 5 V to the memory module's PMIC, which is then stepped down and split accordingly. No longer is the motherboard responsible for regulating the voltages, as with DDR4. The PMIC has the part number "0D=9D...." Software reports this as Richtek being the manufacturer. Internet investigation provides no additional information.
