Many of the components that we currently find for a computer have a large number of specifications that we must take into account if we want to find the best possible, state-of-the-art configuration that offers us the best performance on the market. In general terms, RAM memory is quite standardized since most manufacturers offer very similar products (some better than others due to the materials used), but now Lexar wants to turn the tables, since they have presented the memory DDR5 with minor latency of the market.
More and more brands are joining in to offer new components that manage to surpass those of the competition, but because most cannot offer anything new beyond reducing the price by lowering the cost of materials, they do not usually be very successful, so one of the best ways they can attract as many customers as possible is by improving the performance of said piece, just as it has done Lexar with his memories ARES.
This is the first RAM memory to drop below CL28
Memory latencies DDR5 They have been a fairly big problem for many users since they were launched, we could see how during their first days it was normal for them to exceed the CL40, which later dropped to a CL36 standard, but which ended up being replaced by the CL30. Now, many companies are looking for a way to reduce the timings of this component even further, presenting modules that can go down to CL28, but now Lexar wants to dominate the market with its RAM kits with ultra-low latency, and they have presented the new ARES DD5-6000which manage to reduce the latency to reach the CL26.
The brand on this occasion has indicated that this new component arrives with a perfect configuration to combine with those computers that have a processor Ryzen 7 9800X3Dsince one of its ways of promoting this memory is to indicate that it is the best solution that we are going to find thanks to its ultra-low latency. In addition to this, one of the curious facts that we can find is that it is really designed to amd since unlike other models that include a dual configuration of EXPO/XMP, this only includes the variant to activate the integrated preset of the developer company of the Ryzen.
On the other hand, it is clear that they offer a great advantage compared to the CL30 models, since they manage to offer a delay of only 55ns, which not only offers improvements in the average FPS of 1%, but also an overall improvement of 10% in performance when playing games or using high-performance programs.
«The lower the timings, the lower the lag and the more significant the 1% low frame improvements will be in the game. “This fast responsiveness allows gamers to enjoy more stable image performance at critical moments, reduce lag and frame rate fluctuations, and gain a competitive advantage.”
These memories are only available in China through the JD.com website, in a 32 GB kit (2 x 16GB) with a price of approximately €130.
