Review: 48 GB Patriot Viper Xtreme 5 8200 MT/s CL38

0

It’s definitely the 48 GB kits equipped with the new Hynix M-die chips that are currently the rage in our lab, as today we’ll be reviewing the 48 GB Patriot Viper Xtreme 5 kit, clocked at 8200 MT/s CL38. Following on from our tests of the Teamgroup T-Force Xtreem 8200 MT/s CL38 and Corsair Dominator Titanium 8000 MT/s CL38 memory kits, we now turn our attention to a Patriot model. We’re particularly pleased to be able to offer you this test, since it’s the first time we’ve collaborated with the Patriot brand! We’d like to take this opportunity to thank Shannon Robb for this kit. In fact, it’s the fastest kit currently available in the brand’s catalog.

As a reminder, our test platform has evolved to include the Maximus Z790 APEX ENCORE motherboard and our i9-13900KS, which boasts an excellent IMC. Our previous tests are still available, but we’ve chosen to run only a few kits at reference frequencies in the first instance. The idea is to have at least one kit per frequency in order to have a sufficient panel. I’ll be adding the other previously tested kits in the weeks to come.

What’s more, since the arrival of the Hynix A-die and the new Hynix M-die chips several months ago, frequencies have risen sharply, requiring a test configuration capable of supporting these XMPs and, of course, overclocking.

Don’t hesitate to ask us any questions you may have, either in comments or on our social networks. You can also join our community on the discord. We’d also like to take this opportunity to thank Patriot for supporting this test.

We take stock of the kits available to us:

Since this is an article in which we’ll be doing comparative tests, we thought it would be a good idea to review the various kits we have. You’ll be able to find out more about the features of each one. You can also take a look at the section where our latest memory kit tests are available, and find the one that interests you. Don’t forget that as of today, our test platform is evolving, so we’ll have new performance tables.
