Flare X5 DDR5 6000 kit for AMD Ryzen builds

This 16 GB dual-channel kit uses two matched 8 GB modules rated at DDR5 6000 with CL30 timings. It targets gamers and PC enthusiasts running AMD 600 or 800 series chipsets such as B650, X670, B850 or X870. The memory operates at 1.35 V and carries AMD EXPO certification for automatic profile loading.

Thermals and power at 1.35 V

The black aluminium heat spreader dissipates heat from the DRAM without any active cooling, so the kit runs silently in normal use. At the rated voltage the power draw stays modest for a DDR5 6000 kit, keeping temperatures low inside typical enthusiast chassis. No fan or liquid loop is required for the memory itself.

AMD EXPO profile and matched modules

Enabling the AMD EXPO profile in the BIOS applies the 30-38-38-96 timings and 6000 MT/s speed without manual tuning. The modules are factory-matched; mixing this kit with other memory is not supported and can cause instability. No RGB lighting or extra software utilities are included.

Questions about this item

Will this kit run at its rated speed on an AMD B650 motherboard?

Yes, the kit is validated for AMD 600 and 800 series chipsets including B650; enable the AMD EXPO profile in BIOS to reach DDR5 6000 CL30.

Can I use this memory with an Intel Core Ultra processor?

No, the manufacturer states the kit is not compatible with Intel Core Ultra 100 or 200 series processors or Intel 800 series chipsets.

Do I need to change any BIOS settings to get the advertised timings?

The modules boot at standard SPD speed; to achieve the rated 30-38-38-96 timings at 1.35 V you must enable the AMD EXPO profile in BIOS.
