Introduction
Founded in 2001, ADATA is one of the largest manufacturers of flash memory and DRAM in the world and has steadily grown into what it is today: a leader in the industry. From enterprise to consumers, ADATA has multiple product lines to fit different markets, with the XPG subdivision targeting PC enthusiasts.
XPG offers multiple branded DDR5 products, with the current three main consumer system memory lines being Caster, Lancer, and Hunter. XPG Hunter fulfills basic user needs, while Lancer series memory aims to target a wide market offering both non-RGB and RGB SKUs, pre-binned and sold in various configurations from 5200 MT/s to 8000 MT/s. Lastly is the XPG Caster performance and enthusiast oriented system memory series.
In this review, we will be taking a closer look at the XPG Lancer Blade RGB DDR5-6000 32 GB (2x 16 GB) memory kit, marketed towards those who need low-profile memory while still keeping some of the mainline Lancer features intact. Even with the low profile design, this memory is equipped with decent "gamer-focused" primary timings with dual 6000 MT/s EXPO / profiles optimized for both Intel and AMD systems. Now, with the introduction out of the way, let us now see how this memory kit stacks up against the competition, beginning with a look at the specifications.
