PATRIOT DIMM 16 GB DDR5-5600 (blanco, VEB516G5636W, VIPER Elite 5, INTEL XMP, AMD EXPO)

The PATRIOT Viper Elite 5 16 GB (1x16 GB) DDR5 5600 MT/s 288-pin DIMM CL36 is a single-module desktop memory designed for modern PC builds and upgrades. This 16 GB DDR5 module uses a 288-pin DIMM form factor and is rated for 5600 MT/s with a CAS latency of 36. It operates at standard DDR5 voltages (1.1 V, 1.2 V, 1.25 V) and includes features aimed at improving multitasking and performance in memory‑intensive applications.

Advantages

The module provides faster data throughput compared with previous-generation memory, helping reduce bottlenecks in tasks that rely on quick memory access. Built with an aluminum heatshield and fully hand-tested components, it aims to deliver stable operation and consistent performance. On-Die ECC improves data integrity by correcting single-bit errors and detecting multi-bit errors, while an integrated PMIC supports higher-speed operation with lower voltage and reduced heat generation. The module is compatible with Intel XMP 3.0 and AMD EXPO profiles for straightforward configuration of rated speeds.

Suitable for

• Desktop PC builds and single-module upgrades
• General multitasking and office productivity
• Memory-intensive applications such as content creation and data processing
• Gaming systems seeking improved frame stability
• Systems using XMP 3.0 or AMD EXPO profiles for easy overclocking

Key specifications

How to use

Install the module into an empty compatible 288-pin DIMM slot on a motherboard that supports DDR5 memory, following the motherboard manufacturer’s installation instructions and anti-static handling procedures. After physical installation, enable the appropriate memory profile in BIOS/UEFI (Intel XMP 3.0 or AMD EXPO) if you wish to run the module at its rated 5600 MT/s. If no profile is selected, the system will default to standard JEDEC parameters.

Recommendations

For optimal system stability, install the module into the recommended memory slot per your motherboard manual and update your BIOS/UEFI to the latest version. When enabling XMP or EXPO profiles, verify system temperatures and run memory stability tests if you plan extended high-speed operation. Use proper electrostatic discharge precautions during installation.
