PNY was one of the earlier brands to have a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/pny-xlr8-gaming-mako-rgb-ddr5-6000mhz-review\/\">rather reasonable DDR5 memory kit<\/a> at the time which uses the SK Hynix M-die that has plenty of overclocking headroom if you&#8217;re looking for more performance out of it. This time, we&#8217;ll be taking a look at the PNY XLR8 Gaming MAKO EPIC-X RGB DDR5 6400MHz, the latest model from PNY which uses a different memory chip &#8211; the SK Hynix A-die.<\/p>\n<h2>Specifications<\/h2>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Capacities<\/td>\n<td>32GB ( 2 x 16GB )<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Speeds<sup>*<\/sup><\/td>\n<td>4800 \u2013 6400MT\/s<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Latencies<\/td>\n<td>CL32<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Voltage<\/td>\n<td>1.4V<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Operating Temperature<\/td>\n<td>0 \u00b0C to 85 \u00b0C<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Dimensions<\/td>\n<td>133.4 mm x 34.8 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2>Unboxing<\/h2>\n<div id=\"metaslider-id-63874\" style=\"width: 100%;\" class=\"ml-slider-3-93-0 metaslider metaslider-flex metaslider-63874 ml-slider ms-theme-default\" role=\"region\" aria-roledescription=\"Slideshow\" aria-label=\"XLR8 Gaming MAKO EPIC-X RGB DDR5 6400MHz Gallery\">\n    <div id=\"metaslider_container_63874\">\n        <div id=\"metaslider_63874\" class=\"flexslider\">\n            <ul class='slides'>\n                <li style=\"display: block;

The box provides key details, including the kit&#8217;s capacity, speed, and compatibility with supported RGB software. It&#8217;s very similar to the other MAKO RGB DDR5 which we have previously tested but a closer inspection of the box shows that this kit is both Intel XMP 3.0 and AMD EXPO certified.<\/p>\n<p>While there are no changes in the overall design, the kit we have here actually uses the Hynix A-die memory chips that offer better overclocking headroom for those who are looking for higher memory clocks. As we have already tested DDR5 kits with Hynix A-die in the past, we expect similar behavior from this kit, which is the lower operating voltage at higher memory clocks but higher tRFC compared to DDR5 kits with Hynix M-die.<\/p>\n<h2>Test System<\/h2>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"145\">CPU<\/td>\n<td width=\"270\">Intel Core i9-14900K<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"145\">Motherboard<\/td>\n<td width=\"270\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/asus-rog-maximus-z790-apex-encore-hands-on-review\/\">ASUS ROG Maximus Z790 APEX ENCORE<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"145\">Memory<\/td>\n<td width=\"270\">PNY XLR8 Gaming MAKO EPIC-X RGB DDR5 6400MHz<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"145\">Graphics Card<\/td>\n<td width=\"270\">NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"145\">Power Supply<\/td>\n<td width=\"270\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=gtZ5mAY3CwA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cooler Master M2000 Platinum<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"145\">Primary Storage<\/td>\n<td width=\"270\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/pny-xlr8-cs3040-m-2-nvme-2tb-ssd-review\/\">PNY XLR8 CS3040<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"145\">Secondary Storage<\/td>\n<td width=\"270\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/review-kingston-xs1000-external-ssd-2tb\/\">Kingston XS1000 2TB<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"145\">CPU Cooler<\/td>\n<td width=\"270\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/review-cooler-master-masterliquid-pl360-flux\/\">Cooler Master MasterLiquid PL360 Flux<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"145\">Chassis<\/td>\n<td width=\"270\">Streacom Open Bench Table<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"145\">Operating System<\/td>\n<td width=\"270\">Windows 11 Pro 21H2 (Build 22000.1696)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3>Overclocking<\/h3>\n<p>As previously stated, the MAKO RGB DDR5 is equipped with both XMP and EXPO profiles. However, these profiles appear nearly identical at a surface level despite their distinct names. In contrast to certain DDR4 kits where activating the XMP or DOCP profile suffices, it is advisable to fine-tune the timings on your DDR5 kits for optimal performance. This optimization is essential to extract the maximum capability from the DDR5 modules.<\/p>\n<div

on newer CPUs and motherboards such as Intel 13th-gen or higher and Z790 chipset motherboards, which will give you a significant performance boost on games that take advantage of higher memory clocks of DDR5 memory. We, as usual, did a quick test on this, and from here we can see that the XLR8 Gaming MAKO EPIC-X RGB DDR5 can achieve DDR5-7600 CL36 with a bit more tweaks. Higher voltages are required of course, and we settled with these settings using 1.51V for both VDD and VDDQ, and 1.415V for TX VDDQ.<\/p>\n<div data-carousel-extra='{\"blog_id\":1,\"permalink\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.tech-critter.com\\\/pny-xlr8-gaming-mako-epic-x-rgb-ddr5-6400mhz\\\/\"}' id='gallery-4' class='gallery galleryid-63873 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-large'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a title=\"AIDA64 DDR5 8000 C36\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/AIDA64-DDR5-8000-C36.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"829\" height=\"797\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/AIDA64-DDR5-8000-C36-829x797.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"AIDA64 DDR5 8000 C36\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/AIDA64-DDR5-8000-C36.jpg 829w, https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/AIDA64-DDR5-8000-C36-640x615.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/AIDA64-DDR5-8000-C36-750x721.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 829px) 100vw, 829px\" data-attachment-id=\"63902\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/pny-xlr8-gaming-mako-epic-x-rgb-ddr5-6400mhz\/aida64-ddr5-8000-c36\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/AIDA64-DDR5-8000-C36.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"829,797\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"AIDA64 DDR5 8000 C36\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;AIDA64 DDR5 8000 C36&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/AIDA64-DDR5-8000-C36-640x615.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/AIDA64-DDR5-8000-C36-829x797.jpg\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a title=\"CPUZ DDR5 8000 C36\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/CPUZ-DDR5-8000-C36.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"605\" height=\"603\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/CPUZ-DDR5-8000-C36-605x603.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"CPUZ DDR5 8000 C36\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/CPUZ-DDR5-8000-C36.jpg 605w, https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/CPUZ-DDR5-8000-C36-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/CPUZ-DDR5-8000-C36-75x75.jpg 75w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 605px) 100vw, 605px\" data-attachment-id=\"63903\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/pny-xlr8-gaming-mako-epic-x-rgb-ddr5-6400mhz\/cpuz-ddr5-8000-c36\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/CPUZ-DDR5-8000-C36.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"605,603\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"CPUZ DDR5 8000 C36\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;CPUZ DDR5 8000 C36&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/CPUZ-DDR5-8000-C36-605x603.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/CPUZ-DDR5-8000-C36-605x603.jpg\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>And just for the fun of it, we tried to push things a bit further and finally settled down with DDR5-8000 CL36. The memory kit can get pretty hot at this point and air cooling is not going to get you any higher, so you&#8217;ll need to hop on to liquid cooling if you intend to push it any further. In our case, we&#8217;re able to get past about 10 hours with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.karhusoftware.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Karhu RAM Test<\/a> but with a fan running at 1800RPM blowing directly at the kit &#8211; which is not a feasible cooling solution in the long run.<\/p>\n<h2>Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n<p>If you compare the default timings on the XLR8 Gaming MAKO EPIC-X RGB DDR5 to an older DDR5 memory kit, it&#8217;s better for sure and it doesn&#8217;t need much adjustment if you want to lightly optimize. This doesn&#8217;t mean that the older kit is inferior, of course. They work just fine as it is but for those who don&#8217;t want to go through the trouble optimizing a DDR5 memory kit with Hynix M-die (the CL40 ones), the newer kits with Hynix A-die that usually come with a lower CL value are the easier choice for them. As for those who are looking for a free performance boost, this kit can reach DDR5-7200 without much hassle and it requires lower operating voltage as compared to memory kits that use Hynix M-die to achieve the same memory clock.<\/p>\n<p>Price-wise, the <a href=\"https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/PNY-XLR8-DDR5-6000-6200-6400MHz-MAKO-16GB-Low-profile-PC-Memory-Module-(AMD-Expo-Ready)-i.167826817.16042130667\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">XLR8 Gaming MAKO EPIC-X RGB DDR5<\/a> will cost a bit more compared to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/pny-xlr8-gaming-mako-rgb-ddr5-6000mhz-review\/\">MAKO DDR5 RGB<\/a>, which is RM 619 for the black variant and RM 629 for the white variant. Is the price okay and is it worth switching from a Hynix M-die kit to a Hynix A-die kit? I think it&#8217;s a yes from me although it can be subjective to some users.<\/p>\n<p>Presently, achieving DDR5-6000 CL30 is quite reasonable on both Intel and AMD platforms, and it can be easily accomplished with both Hynix M-die and A-die kits. But as more titles released nowadays can take advantage of higher memory clocks to achieve a better experience, switching to a Hynix A-die kit that can run at DDR5-7200 at a lower operating voltage is a cost-effective way if you don&#8217;t want to spend extra bucks on DDR5-7200 kits that will usually cost a few hundred more.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"17112\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/review-transcend-ssd230s\/tech-critter-recommended\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Tech-Critter-Recommended-e1513687449974.png\" data-orig-size=\"100,146\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Tech Critter Recommended\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Tech Critter Recommended&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Tech-Critter-Recommended-271x397.png\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Tech-Critter-Recommended-271x397.png\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17112 lazyload\" title=\"Tech Critter Recommended\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Tech-Critter-Recommended-e1513687449974.png\" alt=\"Tech Critter Recommended\" width=\"100\" height=\"146\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"17112\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/review-transcend-ssd230s\/tech-critter-recommended\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Tech-Critter-Recommended-e1513687449974.png\" data-orig-size=\"100,146\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Tech Critter Recommended\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Tech Critter Recommended&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Tech-Critter-Recommended-271x397.png\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Tech-Critter-Recommended-271x397.png\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17112 lazyload\" title=\"Tech Critter Recommended\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tech-critter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Tech-Critter-Recommended-e1513687449974.png\" alt=\"Tech Critter Recommended\" width=\"100\" height=\"146\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<h2>Where to buy?
