Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Biwin Black Opal DW100 is a 32GB DDR5 desktop kit — two 16GB modules — rated at 6000MHz with CL30 latency, and it sits at number 9 in this guide. At £409.99 it is the cheaper of the two kits here that share the guide's baseline spec of 32GB at 6000MHz with CL30: the Lexar ARES Gen2 RGB asks £593.99 for the same headline numbers, a gap of £184. Its 4.3 out of 5 comes from 69 ratings.
What you have to work around is the listing's own arithmetic. The first bullet advertises 8400MT/s, while the product title, the Memory Speed field and the Data Transfer Rate field all say 6000MHz. The RAM Size field reads 16 GB for a kit the title calls 32GB (2x16GB), even though the Number of Items and Number of Packs fields both read 2. Every figure on this page is taken from the Amazon listing rather than from testing of our own.
