Crucial 64GB Kit (2x32GB) DDR5-4800 SODIMM Memory Kit Review

Memory by stefan @ 2024-04-28

After a rather long initial boot time for training purposes, our Lenovo Legion Pro 5 16IRX8 laptop loaded Windows OS successfully and the test results were surprisingly good overall, in many cases exceeding the performance of the previously tested Silicon Power kit. The capacity is the main highlight for the Crucial DDR5-4800 64GB SODIMM kit, allowing for complicated and memory-intensive processes to be ran at the same time, such as virtual machines, encoding and rendering tasks and so on.

Packaging, A Closer Look

We will continue our upgrade journey of the Lenovo Legion Pro 5 16IRX8 laptop with a much higher capacity than before, a 64GB (2x32GB) kit from Crucial, running at 4800MHz and JEDEC timings in order to maintain maximum compatibility with most portable systems.

While with the Silicon Power 2x16GB DDR5 4800MHz CL40 SODIMM memory kit, we noted timings of 40-40-40-77-116, the Corsair kit presents itself better with timings of 40-39-39-77-116, while running at the same voltage of 1.1, but we will expect a similar performance from the system.

 

The kit is offered inside a small re-sealable plastic enclosure with a sticker on top; the sticker reveals information regarding the total capacity, running frequency, operating voltage, CAS latency, internal code name, but we will also receive the serial number:

 

 

 

We will get two modules with a nice, black PCB:

 

 

 

Each module does have a sticker placed on the frontal area of the PCB, with a QR code, the product code name, the total capacity, running speed, operating voltage but also the CAS latency. We will note here 8 ICs:

 

 

 

On the back, the module has installed the rest of 8 ICs:

 

 

Each Micron IC is labeled with the 3XA45 C9BNJ code name:
