Performance metrics

Calculated from each kit's rated speed, CAS latency and module count, so they're exact for the rated (XMP/EXPO) profile.

Speed & bandwidth

Bandwidth = data rate × 8 bytes × channels used. A single stick runs in single-channel mode, so a 2-stick kit doubles it. Higher is better.

Data Rate
Crucial Pro 16GB DDR4-32003,200 MT/s
G.Skill Ripjaws V 16GB DDR4-3200 CL163,200 MT/s
Theoretical Bandwidth
Crucial Pro 16GB DDR4-320025.6 GB/s
G.Skill Ripjaws V 16GB DDR4-3200 CL1625.6 GB/s
Calculated from rated speed and module count.

Latency

True latency = CAS latency × 2000 ÷ data rate. This is how CL30 at 6000 MT/s compares fairly with CL16 at 3200. Lower is better.
