* Requires overclocking/BIOS adjustments. Maximum speed and performance depends on system components, including motherboard and CPU.

Flare X5 is a performance DDR5 DRAM memory series designed for compatible AMD platforms, featuring a simple and clean design in matte black or matte white, and a low-profile module height at 33mm.

  • 33mm Low Profile Module Height
  • AMD EXPO™ Memory Overclock Profile Support
  • Do not mix memory kits. Memory kits are sold in matched kits that are designed to run together as a set. Mixing memory kits will result in stability issues or system failure.
  • Prior to enabling AMD EXPO, memory kits will boot at the SPD speed at default BIOS settings with compatible hardware.
  • For memory kits with AMD EXPO, enable EXPO profile in BIOS to reach up to the rated potential EXPO overclock speed of the memory kit, subject to the use of compatible hardware. Enabling AMD EXPO is an act of overclocking and requires BIOS setting adjustments.
  • Reaching the rated AMD EXPO overclock speed and system stability will depend on the compatibility and capability of the motherboard and CPU used.
  • Usage in any manner inconsistent with manufacturer specifications, warnings, designs, or recommendations will result in lower speeds, system instability, or damage to the system or its components.

Refer to the G.SKILL memory kit QVL on the G.SKILL website to check motherboard compatibility.

The G.SKILL Flare X5 is a 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR5-6000 desktop memory kit with CL28 timing and AMD EXPO support, suited to compatible AMD Ryzen builds for gaming or other performance-focused use.

Recommended For

  • Ryzen 7000/9000 desktop builders who want a matched 32GB kit for gaming or everyday multitasking, with an AMD EXPO profile to enable in BIOS.
  • Compact PC builders using large CPU air coolers who need memory with a low profile; the Flare X5 modules are 33mm tall.
  • Ryzen owners who prefer a matched two-stick kit and want to use its rated memory profile rather than manually tune timings; confirm motherboard support and enable EXPO in BIOS.
  • Builders who want a plain black, non-RGB memory kit for a restrained-looking PC rather than illuminated components.

Real-World Use Scenarios

  • Building a Ryzen 7000/9000 desktop for gaming: install the two-module kit and, on a compatible motherboard, enable its AMD EXPO profile in BIOS to use the rated memory settings; whether those settings run reliably depends on the processor and motherboard.
  • Building a compact PC with a large air cooler: the 33 mm modules are designed to reduce RAM-to-cooler clearance conflicts, though users should still check the cooler’s clearance specifications before assembly.
  • Gaming while keeping a browser, chat, and other everyday apps open: the 32 GB dual-channel kit provides memory for these common concurrent tasks, while actual game performance also depends on the CPU, GPU, settings, and whether memory is a system bottleneck.
  • Editing photos or working on moderate video projects while multitasking: 32 GB can provide room for the editor and other open applications, but larger projects or heavier workloads may benefit from a higher-capacity kit.
  • Setting up a new compatible AMD build: the kit’s EXPO profile offers a simpler route to its rated memory settings than entering timings manually; without EXPO or other BIOS configuration, memory may run at its default SPD setting instead.
