Design and Features
The T-Force XTREEM ARGB immediately catches the eye with its fantastic aurora lighting effects. Available in NARVIK black and white, the RAM features stunning grey metal craftwork complemented by tempered glass panels on both sides of the ARGB strip. This combination creates an outstanding look that enhances any PC build.
RGB enthusiasts will appreciate the comprehensive software compatibility. The ARGB lighting works seamlessly with popular motherboard software including ASROCK Polychrome Sync, ASUS Aura Sync, BIOSTAR Sync, GIGABYTE RGB Fusion 2.0, and MSI Mystic Light Sync. This wide compatibility makes it easy to synchronise your PC’s lighting scheme.
Test System Specifications
For this review, I tested the RAM in a system running:
- AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D Processor
- Gigabyte B650 AORUS ELITE AX Motherboard
- AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE Graphics Card
- ID COOLING SL360 XE WHITE CPU Cooler
Performance and Compatibility
The T-Force XTREEM ARGB supports both Intel XMP 3.0 and AMD EXPO profiles, making it versatile for both Intel and AMD platforms, and whether you are a hardcore or casual gamer. The RAM can operate between 6000MHz to 8000MHz, depending on your motherboard’s capabilities. In my AMD-based test system, the RAM performed excellently at 6000MHz using the AMD EXPO profile.
Comprehensive Testing Results
I put the RAM through extensive testing using various benchmarking tools. Here are the key findings:
1. AIDA64 Extreme Cache and Memory Benchmark
AIDA64 Extreme testing revealed impressive write and copy performance improvements when comparing the default 4800MHz to the overclocked 6000MHz speeds.
2. CPU-Z memory and SPD Data
The screenshot on the top left shows the RAM running at Default speed of 4800MHz, and the bottom left shows the RAM running at the overclock speed of 6000MHz. CPU-Z SPD tab shows that the RAM memory is capable to overlocking using AMD EXPO and intel XMP 3.0 profiles even though the RAM still running on the default speed.
3. HW Monitor Data
Temperature monitoring through HW Monitor showed excellent thermal performance. Even when overclocked to 6000MHz using AMD EXPO Profile 1, the RAM maintained a stable 44°C, well below the typical 60-70°C threshold for DDR5 memory. The left screenshot shows the standard Core Temperature and Voltages at 4800Mhz clock speed and the right shows the overclocked speed using AMD EXPO profile 1 running at 6000MHz.
4. Memtest64 LOOP
Stability testing proved impressive. The RAM passed 30 minutes of Memtest64 with 10 loops showing zero errors which means the T-FORCE XTREEM RAM’s stability is very good.
5. Memtest86 LOOP
Last but not least, Memtest86 is very popular among hardware enthusiasts to stress test memory RAMs. More rigorous testing with Memtest86 over 3 hours and 4 complete loops also resulted in a perfect PASS, demonstrating exceptional stability even when overclocked.
6. Counter Strike 2
I chose Counter-Strike 2 for real-world testing as it’s particularly demanding on CPU and RAM performance. The T-Force XTREEM ARGB handled the game excellently, helping to achieve average framerates around 480 FPS. Task Manager monitoring showed no bottlenecking, confirming the RAM’s ability to keep up with both CPU and GPU demands.
T-FORCE XTREEM ARGB 32GB 6000 MHz DDR5 Review Conclusion
The T-FORCE XTREEM ARGB DDR5 RAM impresses with its stable 6000MHz performance and excellent thermal management. At A$209 (for the 2x16GB kit), it offers good value considering its premium build quality, aesthetic design, and reliable performance. The combination of clean aesthetics and robust performance makes it a compelling choice for gamers building a new DDR5 system in the new year of 2025.
The upgraded PMIC (Power Management Integrated Circuit) effectively maintains power stability during extended gaming sessions. The premium 10-layer anti-interference board design helps maintain thermal stability and consistent clock speeds. TeamGroup backs this quality with a lifetime warranty.
Whether you’re a competitive gamer needing reliable high-speed memory or a PC enthusiast looking for premium RAM with clean aesthetics and simple design, the T-Force XTREEM ARGB deserves serious consideration. Its ability to maintain stability under heavy loads while keeping temperatures well in check makes it a solid choice for modern gaming rigs.
