Why DDR5 RAM is so expensive now?

DDR5 Memory is pricey due to the surging demand from AI server farms and data centers, which has caused a global memory shortage. This has led memory manufacturers to prioritize more profitable server-grade memory like HBM (high-Bandwidth Memory) over consumer-grade DDR5, drastically reducing supply for consumers while simultaneously causing the prices for both DDR5 and DDR4 to increase.

What is the CAS latency and voltage of the DDR5 6200 memory?

The CAS latency of the DDR5 6200 memory is 36, and the voltage is 1.30V.

What is the capacity of the CORSAIR Vengeance RGB memory kit?

The capacity of the CORSAIR Vengeance RGB memory kit is 32GB, which consists of 2 x 16GB modules.

Manufacturer Contact Info

The CORSAIR Vengeance RGB CMH32GX5M2B6200C36 is a 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR5-6200 desktop memory kit with CL36 timings and Intel XMP 3.0, suited to gaming and high-performance PC builds using compatible Intel DDR5 motherboards.

Recommended For

Intel DDR5 desktop builders who want a 32GB, two-stick kit and are comfortable enabling its Intel XMP profile in BIOS; check the motherboard’s memory support list before relying on 6200 MT/s.
PC gamers who want 32GB of DDR5 in a dual-channel kit, along with customizable lighting for a windowed desktop build.
Builders who already use CORSAIR iCUE and want their memory lighting managed alongside compatible CORSAIR components.
Desktop users who want a matched 2×16GB kit for everyday multitasking or moderate creative work, without needing more than 32GB of memory.

Real-World Use Scenarios

Playing demanding PC games while keeping chat, a browser, and other background apps open: the 32GB kit provides memory for the game and everyday multitasking; actual frame rates still depend mainly on the CPU, graphics card, and game.
Building or upgrading an Intel DDR5 desktop: enabling the kit’s XMP profile in BIOS can set its rated memory speed and timings, provided the CPU and motherboard support the configuration; without the profile, it may run at a lower default speed.
Editing photos or videos while keeping other applications open: 32GB can support a typical creator workflow with several apps running, though large projects or demanding professional workloads may benefit from more memory.
Compressing files or running memory-sensitive desktop tasks: the DDR5 kit’s XMP-enabled speed can improve memory bandwidth in a compatible system, but the size of any real-world improvement depends on the application and the rest of the PC.
Coordinating a PC’s lighting with a themed build: the modules’ RGB lighting can be customized in CORSAIR iCUE, making the memory a visible part of the system’s look as well as a functional component.
