Crucial 64GB (2 x 32GB) DDR5-4800 Memory Kit Review

Memory by stefan @ 2023-01-22

The 64GB DDR5-4800 memory kit from Crucial does offer good performance and compatibility, while having a bit of headroom in terms of overclocking. High-capacity sticks are often a bit more difficult to overclock, but with this one we were able to do 5200MHz at stock timings, by just raising the operating voltage at 1.25.

Test Setup and Test Results Part I

Test Setup

 

CPU: Intel i7-13700K @ Stock

CPU Cooler: be quiet! Silent Loop 2 360mm AIO

Motherboard: EVGA Z690 CLASSIFIED

RAM: currently tested kit

Video: XFX Radeon RX 5700XT Ultra THICC III

Power Supply: Cooler Master 850W

SSD: Silicon Power US70 1TB PCIe 4.0

Case: Cooler Master ATCS 840

 

The pre-programmed timings and frequencies can be also found by using AIDA64; the DRAM IC manufacturer is listed as Micron:

 

The modules are pre-programmed with three XMP profiles, to fit with most configurations:

 

-DDR4000 CL32 (32-32-32-64) 1.1V

-DDR4400 CL36 (36-36-36-71) 1.1V

-DDR4800 CL40 (40-39-39-77) 1.1V

 

We did first start testing this kit on our trusty Z690 CLASSIFIED from EVGA, running the latest 2.06 BIOS from the support page. While the 4800 XMP has been proven fully stable, we wanted to see how far it can go with the stock timings at CL40, so we upped the frequency to 5200. We did encounter some errors in TM5, but after increasing the voltage to 1.25, the system became fully stable:

 

 

When trying going to 5400MHz, we did encounter blue screens a lot of errors in TM5 so we decided to stop here.
