Desktop memory G.SKILL Flare X5 F5-6000J3038F8GH2-FX5 16 GB (2×8 GB) DDR5 6000 MT/s 288-pin DIMM

G.Skill Flare X5 F5-6000J3038F8GH2-FX5 is a 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR5 memory kit designed for AMD AM5 platforms with DDR5 support. The low-profile modules (33 mm height) use hand-screened DDR5 DRAM ICs and are validated through G.SKILL’s testing to ensure compatibility and stability. The kit includes AMD EXPO overclocking profiles for one-step memory overclocking via BIOS on compatible motherboards. Not compatible with platforms or systems using Intel Core Ultra 100/200 processors or Intel 800 series chipsets.

Advantages

The Flare X5 series combines a compact low-profile module height with AMD-focused tuning to provide reliable performance in space-constrained builds. Hand-screened ICs and G.SKILL validation help ensure consistent quality and stability, while preprogrammed AMD EXPO profiles allow easy BIOS-based overclocking without manual timing adjustments. Available in matte black or matte white, the modules have a minimal visual design suitable for multiple build styles.

Suitable for

• Compact desktop PCs or small-form-factor builds with limited clearance
• AMD AM5 motherboards that support DDR5 and AMD EXPO
• Users who want simple BIOS-enabled memory overclocking
• Systems requiring low-profile memory to fit large CPU coolers

Key specifications

• Total capacity: 16 GB (2 x 8 GB)
• Memory type: DDR5
• Data rate: 6000 MT/s
• Form factor: 288-pin DIMM
• CAS latency: CL30
• Operating voltage: 1.1 V / 1.35 V
• Height: 33 mm (low-profile)
• Supports AMD EXPO and Intel XMP 3.0 profiles

How to use

Install the two 288-pin DIMM modules into matching memory slots on an AMD AM5 motherboard following the motherboard manual for dual-channel configuration. After installation, enter the BIOS and enable the AMD EXPO profile to apply the factory-configured overclocking settings. If BIOS-level profile support is unavailable, use default JEDEC settings or consult your motherboard vendor for manual configuration guidance.

Recommendations

Use these modules in systems explicitly based on AMD AM5 platforms with DDR5 support and motherboards that recognize AMD EXPO profiles. Do not install in systems using Intel Core Ultra 100/200 processors or Intel 800 series chipsets. For best stability, update the motherboard BIOS to the latest recommended version before enabling EXPO.
