• 2x 16 GB TEAMGROUP T-Create Expert DDR5-6400 memory
• T-Create case badge

Design, Layout and Connectivity

The T-Create Expert DDR5-6400 offers an understated aesthetics that is appropriate for a professional setting or minimalist builds. The memory kit is a standard DDR5 LO-DIMM in size, which means it is 100% compatible (clearance wise) with any desktop CPU coolers.

TEAMGROUP also offers the T-Create Expert DDR5 modules in white which is appropriate to match with light-colored parts or themed builds. Each 16 GB module is single rank by design.

The memory kit comes with two profiles: Default, which is a JEDEC specification running at DDR5-5200 CL42-42-42 and the XMP/EXPO at DDR5-6400 CL40-40-40. Both profiles will be tested in this review.

This memory kit is benchmarked with a test system featuring the AMD Ryzen 9 7900X processor, Radeon RX 7800 XT graphics card, and an ASUS ROG Strix X670E-I Gaming WiFi motherboard.

Throughput

AIDA64 highlights the considerable performance loss when the memory kit operates under JEDEC specifications. Note that while the T-Create Expert is clearly optimized for DDR5-6400, performance outcomes in other benchmarks might still differ.

Encryption

The two memory profiles tested show no substantial variation in performance when tested using AIDA64’s AES and SHA3 benchmarks.

3D Rendering

The same applies to 3D rendering benchmarks in Blender, though technically, the DDR5-6400 profile exhibits slightly better performance.

AI Inference

As for AI inference benchmarks, the DDR5-6400 profile clearly outperforms the DDR5-5200 JEDEC specification – consistently delivering faster performance across all neural models tested.

Content Creation

Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom, and Premier Pro all benefitted from the faster memory. Content creation clearly shows that DDR5-6400 provides consistently higher performance across all applications.

Productivity

Microsoft Office applications also benefitted from the faster DDR5-6400 profile, but with exception of the Outlook results.

Compression

Compression speed showed improved performance too via 7-Zip’s compression benchmarking tool.

Gaming

Gaming performance on the other hand is uneventful, even with the 1% low averages considered.

Temperature

Thermal output is definitely higher when the memory is running at higher speeds. They certainly get hot, but not alarming.

Power

Higher power output at just under 4 W is very much acceptable when the memory kit is running at its optimal profile.

Final Thoughts

The 32 GB T-Create Expert DDR5-6400 from TEAMGROUP proves to be a high-performance memory kit that excels in various demanding workloads. Its sleek, professional design makes it a versatile choice for both productivity-focused and enthusiast builds.

Performance-wise, DDR5-6400 delivers clear advantages over the default DDR5-5200 JEDEC specification in several key areas. AI inference, content creation, and compression workloads show significant improvements, reinforcing the benefits of higher memory speeds for professional applications. Adobe software, Microsoft Office, and 3D rendering workloads also see tangible gains, making this kit an excellent choice for creatives and professionals.

While gaming performance remains largely unaffected, the kit’s higher power draw and thermal output are manageable trade-offs for the noticeable boost in speed across other workloads. Overall, the T-Create Expert DDR5-6400 stands out as a well-optimized, high-capacity memory solution that delivers where it matters most – enhancing productivity, creativity, and AI-driven tasks.
