addlink Spider X5 DDR5-6000 Memory Kit
3. Conclusion
The addlink Spider X5 DDR5 RGB kit is the latest and fastest memory DDR5 you can buy with low latencies at acceptable voltages. The Spider X5 includes a very good RGB lighting strip across the entire memory module and it will automatically get synced with your motherboard RGB software.
The Spider X5 series can be found at various running speeds from 5600MHz, 6000MHz, and up to 6400MHz. For our tests, we received the 6000MHz CL38 kit (2x16GB) that performed very stable and very fast at our AMD AM5-based system. While the memory is rated at CL38 at 1.30V it can run at CL30 again at 1.30V without any issue. If you wish you could also lower the cache latency to CL28 with 1.40V and it's possible to push this memory kit even lower.
Overall the Spider X5 DDR5 series is a great product that can be used in both Intel/AMD-enabled systems, since it includes both XMP3.0 and EXPO memory profiles, that not many other memory manufacturers include. The used SK Hynix DDR5 memory modules worked their magic and for the retail price of SPIDER X5 DDR5-6000 ~ $121.99, we find this product to deserve not only our best buy award but also our Editors Choice Award. Did we mention that this product comes with a lifetime warranty from addlink?
