ADATA Premier 32GB (DDR5-4800, CL40) Desktop RAM

Description

32GB Single-Stick — Maximum Single-Slot DDR5 Capacity

At 32GB in a single module, the AD5U480032G-S is the highest-capacity single-stick DDR5 listing in this range. For systems with two DIMM slots, a single 32GB stick leaves the second slot free — enabling a future 64GB dual-channel upgrade without replacing any installed memory. For workstation-grade workflows including virtualisation, large-scale video editing, 3D rendering, data analysis, and multi-application multitasking, 32GB in a single slot delivers meaningful headroom well beyond what 8GB or 16GB alternatives can offer.

Dual-Rank (2Rx8) Configuration

The AD5U480032G-S uses a dual-rank (2Rx8) IC configuration — the same topology as the 16GB Premier (AD5U480016G-S) — allowing the memory controller to interleave between ranks for improved effective memory bandwidth. At 32GB, dual-rank is the standard configuration as it is the most practical way to achieve this density within DDR5 DRAM chip constraints.

DDR5 Platform Features

The future of DRAM is here in the form of the ADATA DDR5-4800 U-DIMM module. Compared to its predecessors, this module provides a significant speed boost, higher capacities, reduced power consumption, and increased bandwidth per CPU core. ADATA DDR5 memory modules deliver frequencies of up to 4800MT/s and feature bandwidth of 38.4GB/s — 50% higher than DDR4-3200 — operating at only 1.1V. On-die ECC provides real-time single-bit error correction, and the built-in PMIC delivers enhanced power supply stability with cleaner signalling.

Performance Profile

The AD5U480032G-S runs at DDR5-4800 (PC5-38400) with CL40-40-40-77 timings at 1.1V via JEDEC specification — no XMP profile, no BIOS configuration required. Speed is natively achieved at DDR5-4800 on any compatible DDR5 platform straight out of the box.

⚠️ No XMP on this module: DDR5-4800 is achieved via JEDEC specification natively — no BIOS tuning required.

Platform Requirements & Capacity Verification

DDR5 is not compatible with DDR4 motherboards or slots. A DDR5-capable motherboard and CPU is required. At 32GB single-module capacity, it is critical to verify your motherboard’s maximum per-slot memory capacity before purchasing — not all DDR5 motherboards support 32GB single modules. Consult your motherboard’s specifications or QVL (Qualified Vendor List) to confirm 32GB per-slot support.

⚠️ Verify 32GB per-slot support: Not all DDR5 motherboards support 32GB single modules. Check your motherboard’s specifications or QVL before purchasing.

⚠️ DDR5 is not compatible with DDR4 slots: Verify that both your motherboard and CPU support DDR5 before purchasing. Many Intel 12th and 13th gen boards were available in both DDR4 and DDR5 variants — confirm your specific board’s memory type before ordering.

⚠️ Single stick = single channel: For dual-channel bandwidth, install a second AD5U480032G-S in your motherboard’s recommended paired DIMM slots — enabling 64GB dual-channel. Refer to your board’s manual for the correct slot configuration.
