Sabrent is known for its fast, reliable, and price-competitive M.2 NVMe SSDs. Since they are already in the storage business, I wouldn’t be surprised if Sabrent ventured into the memory market. Last April, Sabrent announced its DDR4 SO-DIMM memory kits. It was only a matter of time until they released DDR5 memory modules. That day has come, and today Sabrent announces its high-performance, low-latency DDR5 memory modules for desktop PC. Meet the Sabrent Rocket DDR5 memory module; available in 8GB, 16GB, and 32GB capacity and with speeds of 4800MHz. Check out more details from the official news release below.
Sabrent Announces High-Performance Rocket DDR5 Memory Modules
It seems like DDR4 has ruled the roost forever. Finally, new motherboards and architectures have allowed memory to grow wings with the advent of DDR5. Improved clock speeds promise up to twice the bandwidth of DDR4, all with lower voltage for better efficiency. To further help with that last bit, DDR5 has on-board power management to reduce motherboard cost and complexity. Sabrent’s new DDR5 kits simply plug and play, install your memory kits of choice, enter the BIOS and hit AUTO, and reboot. For those that want to OC these kits, there is plenty of headroom to advance speeds if you want.
Reliability has also been improved by the introduction of on-die error-correction technology. Memory availability is improved by splitting the internal 64-bit (72-bit with ECC) channel into two independent, 32-bit channels (40-bit with ECC) and the addition of the same bank refresh. Combined with other features, including those that allow for up to four times the module capacity with consumer DRAM, DDR5 ensures your multi-core CPU won’t be memory starved.
Sabrent’s DDR5 comes in both DIMM and SO-DIMM form factors to help you out, whether you’re using a desktop, laptop, or other embedded device. It meet JEDEC standards to ensure compatibility and reliability. Sabrent offers a wide range of capacities at an affordable price to make upgrading an easy choice – even the installation process is easy.
Sabrent Rocket DDR5 Memory Module Highlights
- LESS VOLTAGE, BETTER EFFICIENCY: DDR5 requires less voltage, which results in lower power consumption than DDR4. On-module power management further increases efficiency and reduces motherboard complexity.
- UP TO DOUBLE THE BANDWIDTH: DDR5 allows for up to double the bandwidth of DDR4, reducing a memory bottleneck. Content creation, gaming, and more will benefit from these rocket-fast speeds.
- HIGHER PERFORMANCE: DDR5 has other internal improvements that lead to better overall performance. Make the most of your memory and reach the next level in gaming with these new technologies.
- HIGHER CAPACITY: DDR5 can have up to four times the capacity in the same space, making sure you never run out of memory again. More is better, especially if you’re juggling sixteen cores or more.
- COMPATIBLE AND RELIABLE: DDR5 also has improvements to error correction, making sure your experience is consistent and reliable. Further, our memory meets all JEDEC memory standards, so it’s easier than ever to upgrade and be on your way. Installation is always simple and easy, too.
