The memory is high-performance and low-latency DDR5 RAM, featuring speeds of up to 8000 MT/s, making it a solid DRAM for high-performance PCs. Not much has been shared regarding its specifications, but it is likely marketed on Intel Z890 chipset motherboards for Intel Core Ultra 200S processors.
The Xtreme 5 40 Years edition is an iteration of the existing Xtreme 5 RGB DDR5 memory but boasts a different heatsink and color combination. The heat sink spreader is dark blue compared to the black and white color themes available on the regular ones. The speed is the same on the 40-year edition as on the Xtreme 5 memory and as the Xtreme 5 RGB DDR5 boasts Intel XMP 3.0 support, the special edition is definitely for Intel platforms.
The new edition also brings RGB lighting on top of the heat spreaders that can be customized via popular RGB software like RGB Fusion 2.0, Polychrome Sync, Mystic Light Sync, and Aura Sync. As per the specifications of the regular Xtreme 5 RGB DDR5 modules, the special edition should bring CL timings of 38-49-49-85 and should feature memory capacities of 16 GB and 24 GB.
Patriot hasn't announced the price and availability of the Xtreme 5 40 Years RGB DDR5 memory. So, we have to wait for the latest updates from the company itself.
