Desktop memory PATRIOT Viper Elite 5 Ultra 16 GB (1x16 GB) DDR5 6000 MT/s 288-pin DIMM CL36

PATRIOT Viper Elite 5 Ultra 16 GB (1x16 GB) DDR5 6000 MT/s 288-pin DIMM CL36 is a single-module desktop memory kit designed for modern DDR5 platforms. Supplied as one 16 GB 288-pin DIMM, this module operates at a rated data rate of 6000 MT/s with CAS latency CL36 and supports standard DDR5 voltages (1.1 V, 1.25 V, 1.35 V). It is intended for PC upgrades and new builds that require increased memory bandwidth and responsiveness for gaming, creative work and general multitasking.

Advantages

The Viper Elite 5 Ultra module provides a balance of capacity and performance in a single DIMM, offering 16 GB of DDR5 memory with a 6000 MT/s data rate and CL36 latency. Being a DDR5 288-pin DIMM, it is compatible with motherboards that support DDR5 desktop memory and follows standard DDR5 voltage options for flexible platform tuning. The module's measured weight and standard form factor make installation straightforward in typical ATX and smaller chassis that accept full-size DIMMs.

Suitable for

• Desktop PC upgrades to increase available system memory
• New PC builds using DDR5-compatible motherboards
• Gaming systems that benefit from higher memory bandwidth
• Content creation and multitasking workflows that require responsive memory

How to use

Power down the PC and unplug the power cable before installing the module. Open the case, locate an empty DDR5 288-pin DIMM slot on a compatible motherboard, and align the notch on the module with the slot key. Press the module firmly and evenly into the slot until the retention clips snap into place. After installation, reconnect power and boot to the system BIOS or UEFI to verify the memory is detected and to enable any supported XMP/EXPO profiles if desired and supported by the motherboard.

Recommendations

Install the module into a DDR5-compatible motherboard and consult the motherboard manual for supported memory configurations and slot population. When enabling automatic performance profiles (XMP/EXPO), ensure your motherboard firmware is up to date and monitor system stability after changes. For multi-module setups, use matched modules specified for dual- or multi-channel operation to achieve optimal performance.
