The Lexar ARES Gen2 RGB is a 32GB DDR5 desktop kit made of two 16GB UDIMM modules, listed at 6000MHz with CL30 timings. It comes last in this guide, at number 10 — not because it is slow, but because it costs £593.99 for the same headline specification that nine of the other kits here carry: 32GB at 6000MHz. The kit it sits closest to on paper, the £409.99 Biwin DW100, is also 32GB at 6000MHz, which leaves £184 between the two.

The listing itself is where it gets untidy. The Memory Speed field says 6000 MHz and the bullet text says 6000MT/s at CL30, but the Data Transfer Rate field on the same page says 6144 Megabytes Per Second. Both numbers are on the listing; they are not the same number. What is consistent is the rest of the specification: Intel XMP 3.0 and AMD EXPO support, on-die ECC, a built-in PMIC, a 1.88mm aluminium heat spreader, 288 pins, 1.4V and RGB lighting through Lexar RGB Sync. Everything on this page is taken from the Amazon listing for this kit, price and rating included — we have not tested it ourselves.
