Memory module G.Skill DDR5 32GB 6400MHz

The G.Skill Ripjaws S5 F5-6400J3648F16GX2-RS5W is a 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5 memory kit engineered for high-speed desktop computing. Operating at 6400 MHz with a CAS latency of 36 and a 288-pin DIMM form factor, this memory kit combines hand-screened ICs, a compact low-profile heatspreader, and support for Intel XMP 3.0 profiles to deliver reliable performance for multitasking, content creation and gaming on modern Intel Core platforms. The modules are available with matte black or matte white aluminium heatspreaders and run at a nominal voltage of 1.35 V.

Advantages

The Ripjaws S5 series balances performance, compatibility and stability by using hand-screened DRAM ICs and G.SKILL's validation tests. Its 6400 MHz operating frequency provides higher data throughput for demanding applications while the low-profile 33 mm heatspreader accommodates large CPU coolers and compact builds. XMP 3.0 support enables straightforward BIOS configuration for optimized timings and frequencies without manual tuning.

Suitable for

• High-performance gaming rigs and esports systems
• Multitasking and productivity workstations
• Content creation and video editing PCs
• Compact ATX / micro-ATX systems with tall CPU coolers
• Systems using modern Intel Core platforms that support DDR5

How to use

Install the two DIMM modules into the matched memory slots on a compatible motherboard, following the motherboard manufacturer's recommended channel population. Ensure the system is powered off and unplugged before installation. After physical installation, enter the system BIOS and enable the appropriate Intel XMP 3.0 profile to apply the rated 6400 MHz settings and XMP timings; alternatively, manual configuration of frequency, voltage and timings can be performed if desired. Verify system stability after configuration using stress-testing or benchmarking tools.

Recommendations

Use these modules in pairs to take advantage of dual-channel memory performance. Verify motherboard and CPU compatibility with DDR5 6400 MHz operation and update the BIOS to the latest version to ensure proper XMP profile recognition. For compact systems or builds with tall coolers, the low-profile 33 mm height helps maintain clearance, but confirm available clearance before installation.
