Lexar Lists 32 GB DDR5-7200 Memory With Chinese DRAM at $592

Lexar has introduced a new THOR RGB DDR5 Gen 2 32 GB memory kit, consisting of two 16 GB DDR5 modules, specifically for the Chinese market. The kit features DDR5 memory running at 7,200 MT/s, with the actual DDR5 modules produced by an unidentified Chinese DRAM manufacturer, likely CXMT. The latest THOR RGB 32 GB kit offers memory with 38-48-48-86 CAS latency timings at 1.40 V and supports Intel's XMP 3.0 and AMD EXPO profiles to achieve maximum frequency and overclocking potential. While the exact overclocking range of these modules is unknown,

Lexar has not explicitly disclosed which Chinese DRAM maker is used for this DDR5 kit, but it is assumed that CXMT DRAM is housed under the sandblasted aluminium heat spreaders. The company tested a variety of ASUS and MSI motherboards on both AMD and Intel platforms, even mentioning a 32 GB kit with 7,600 MT/s speeds, as opposed to this newly listed 7,200 MT/s kit. It is likely that more motherboards and vendors will be compatible without issues, but only those mentioned in the list below were tested. Lexar's official JD store lists the price for the THOR RGB DDR5-7200 32 GB kit at 3,999 RMB, which is approximately $592 at the time of writing, based on the current exchange rate. This kit is meant for the mainland China, with no mention of global availability.
