G.SKILL Flare X5 Series (AMD Expo) DDR5 RAM 96GB (2x48GB) 5200MT/s CL40-40-40-83 1.10V Desktop Computer Memory UDIMM - Matte Black (F5-5200J4040A48GX2-FX5)

This RAM is made for ZFS NAS. Doesn’t need speed just large capacity to work very well when streaming or transferring data.

Finally I have more ram than I will ever need. 96GB. Wow. And the price isn't much more than what I paid for 32GB 2 years ago. Reset your BIOS RAM timings/speed if you are upgrading so that these sticks will be recognized. I'm my excitement, I forgot to do that and wouldn't post.Speed is 5200, which is the minimum for AM5 now. Everyone seems to recommend going to 6000 for the best performance but 6000 is almost twice as much as this. I will settle for slightly slower RAM for more RAM. Sticks install just like any other RAM stick. The heatsink is pretty basic and not crazy shaped with RGB or anything so it fits my air tower cooler just fine. My Phantom Spirit front fan just has to be slightly mounted higher than flush but its really no effect on cooling.Been using G.Skill RAM for years. My last 4 builds used G.Skill RAM. Always a good value. Davinci Resolve loves the extra RAM space and I can run all the Chrome based browsers I want. I should have upgraded RAM a long time ago.

I wanted to add these to a 2 x F5-5200J4040A24GX2-FX5 (identical DIMMs except 24GB each), in a 7950X MSI x670 Tomahawk MB system I had. Initially, they did work: 144GB total memory! But my joy was short-lived, as the system kept crashing. I tried increasing the voltage (up to 1.35v) and also down-clocking the memory (all the way down to 3600MT/s), and that did help, but couldn't go 24 hours without memory errors (was using stress-ng for testing).Finally I resorted to a single 48GB DIMM, and the system stayed stable! Both new DIMMs worked fine by themselves. This was after many days of messing around, so I then bought 2 x 48GB Crucial Pro just to see if they could work (much more expensive, but stability is priceless). They worked *first try* - even with XMP enabled. I know the AMD memory controller is finicky, but it still puzzles me how the 24GB X5 DIMMs worked perfectly, and the Crucial 48GB DIMMs also worked perfectly, but the 48GB X5 DIMMs just could not stay stable, regardless of voltage or frequency.

I needed a little more RAM and 128GB seemed like overkill. This RAM (96GB) had good price for 2 48 GB sticks, which is what was needed. This is not the fastest RAM, but for my case it is enough. Just make sure to enable AMD Expo (which only works with 2 sticks, in my experience) to get the speed up to 5200MT/s. By default the speed is set to 4800. Giving is 4 stars only because the package was obviously opened before, however as I myself just returned RAM after using it for a while, I let is slide. I did run all the memtests few times, and the RAM is good.

Bummer, failed memtest right at the end of the 96gb.Further testing determined that 1 of the 2 sticks was faulty. Hopefully the replacement will not be faulty as it's a lot of ram for a cheap price.

Works great with my 9950x. Overclocked well.

I tried other memory modules for this CPU/MB combo but the MB would not consistently boot. Yes it could be anything. After putting in this 96GB (2x48GB) module, the boot was consistent. I don't know if it's considered fast but I haven't had any problems with it. I use it for AI LLM and some gaming. It works well.

Works really well
