Quite right ... a bit annoying when they mix identical kits like mine
Corsair's DDR5 kits are so far only the crappy Micron IC's. Not seen a DDR4 kit like that though, I'd return it.

to be clear, they were different 2 x 8GB packs but work fine

Are there any comparisons of memory speeds/timings and their affect yet?

Can those 4400 c19 kits actually run at that speed on alderlake?

Purchased OCUKs today only oem 12600k £248.99. Great deal and no negatives over a retail chip as it has a three year warranty.

OK, motherboard on it’s way. Now I can await the dedicated velocity 1700 cpu waterblock from EK which won't land until early december, or, use my existing EK magnitude 1200 block with the mounting conversion bracket. Hmm, choices. Three week difference…
Jumped over to Alder-Lake, new bits 12600K and TUF Gaming Plus Wifi D4, re-using G.Skill 3200 CL14 kit, and the age-less Noctua D14 (that I bought in 2012), went though Noctua' free mounting service, paid the extra to get if here by the weekend, turns out that's delayed til Mon, and the Asus has 11xx mounting gaps anyway (contact seems ok, low 60's loaded)
Coming from R7 2700 and X370

Not that I'm particularly bothered, but where are you confirming this? I get no details back re. manufacturer on CPU-z or Thaiphoon Burner.
I haven't seen any yet, just 4 vs 5 but nothing on DDR5 performance at several different clocks and timings

If you are running a GPU, you might have to prioritise the igpu in the bios.

Well ive got a 12700K on a Asus Strix-A as stop gap until my 12900K turns up (which should be monday) and i can get hold of a Asus Maximus Hero as i have my DDR5 sat here waiting.

Are these actually in stock anywhere though? I'm in the market for low latency DDR4 and both these and G SKill Tridents also 3600/CL14 seem to be magic dust now!
