Patriot Viper Venom 16GB DDR5-5600
Running at 5600 MT/s with CL36 timings, this single 16GB DDR5 module offers a straightforward entry into next-gen memory with dual XMP 3.0 and AMD EXPO profile support for easy overclocking. Its on-die ECC and tested platform reliability provide stable operation for budget-conscious builds, though the single-channel configuration limits peak bandwidth. This kit is best for system builders assembling a new mid-range gaming PC who plan to add a second identical stick later for dual-channel performance.
