Memory Module G.Skill DDR5 48GB 5600MHz

The G.Skill Flare X5 F5-5600J4040D24GX2-FX5 is a 48 GB (2 x 24 GB) DDR5 memory kit engineered for DDR5-enabled AMD AM5 platforms. Operating at 5600 MHz with a CAS latency of 40, this low-profile module is intended for systems that require high memory bandwidth and stable multitasking performance. The kit includes AMD EXPO overclocking profiles that allow one-step memory tuning via compatible BIOS settings. Built from hand-screened DDR5 DRAM ICs and validated under G.SKILL's testing procedures, the Flare X5 offers a compact 33 mm height, a matte black minimalist heatspreader and a limited lifetime warranty for long-term support.

Advantages

The Flare X5 kit provides high-frequency DDR5 performance at 5600 MHz combined with modern EXPO profiles for straightforward overclocking on supported AMD motherboards. Its low-profile 33 mm height makes it suitable for compact PC builds or systems with large CPU coolers without sacrificing stability thanks to hand-screened DRAM components and factory validation. The matte black finish and minimalistic styling fit a wide range of build themes while maintaining reliable thermal characteristics for everyday and demanding workloads.

Suitable for

• Gaming PCs built on DDR5-enabled AMD AM5 platforms
• Content creation and multimedia editing that require large memory capacity and bandwidth
• Workstations and home servers performing multitasking and memory-intensive applications
• Compact builds or systems with tall CPU coolers where low-profile modules are needed

Key specifications

• Total capacity: 48 GB (2 x 24 GB)
• Memory type: DDR5
• Effective clock speed: 5600 MHz
• CAS latency: CL40
• Memory voltage: selectable profiles at 1.1 V and 1.25 V
• Module height: 33 mm (low-profile)
• Heatspreader finish: anodized matte black
• AMD EXPO overclocking profiles supported

How to use

Install the two modules in the motherboard memory slots according to the motherboard manual, observing the correct channel population for dual-channel operation. After physical installation and booting into BIOS/UEFI, enable the AMD EXPO profile if you wish to run the modules at their rated 5600 MHz settings; select the appropriate EXPO profile and save changes, then reboot. If manual tuning is required, adjust voltage and timing settings carefully and verify system stability with memory stress tests. For systems that do not use EXPO, the modules will operate at the motherboard's default SPD settings until manually configured.

Usage recommendations

For best results, pair this memory kit with a DDR5-capable AM5 motherboard that explicitly supports AMD EXPO and check the motherboard QVL for validated modules. Ensure adequate airflow around the memory area in compact builds and confirm BIOS updates are applied for improved memory compatibility. When overclocking, increase settings incrementally and validate stability with appropriate testing tools.
