We have recently received another interesting RAM kit, but this time from Silicon Power; the XPOWER Zenith is available with both RGB and non-RGB variants, while the heatspreader can be chosen in either white or black colors, in order to fit the build scheme. In terms of RAM configurations, we will note 5200MHz and 5600MHz modules with 1.25V operating voltages, while the 6000MHz modules do come with a 1.3V operating voltage; 5200MHz ones have a CAS latency of 38, while the 5600MHz and 6000MHz modules have a CAS latency of 40. We have single RAM sticks packs of 8GB, 16GB and 32GB capacities, while the dual channel kits are 8GBx2, 16GBx2 but also 32GBx2.
The kit we have received is a black RGB 2x16GB DDR5600 C40 model, which has arrived in a transparent, sealed plastic enclosure; the inner presentation cardboard layer does show the operating speed of the modules, the total capacity of the kit but also the list of compatible motherboard tools for RGB control:
On the back side, we will note a small product description, information on Silicon Power’s office locations, but also the internal product name:
After removing the top packaging layer, we will note some extra instructions inside:
Let’s take a look at the main product! The modules do come with a black PCB, which are also almost entirely covered by a black heatspreader, sporting a brushed aluminum finish:
In the top right side, we will note a text which informs the user that we are dealing with a DDR5 memory kit:
The middle area presents itself with a white XPOWER logo;
The design on the opposite area is the same, except a small additional sticker:
On this specific sticker, we will note the product serial number, the internal code name, the running speed, the CAS latency but also the capacity;
The top area includes the RGB light diffuser, with logos on both center and right side;
The modules look great with the RGB lighting, while the system is operating; the only downside is that Silicon Power has not prepared a dedicated application for the RGB control, so it only relies on the motherboard manufacturer. In our case, with the EVGA Z690 CLASSIFIED motherboard in the test system, the RGB effects control was a no-go:
