Overview
The Kingston FURY Beast RGB KF560C30BBEAK2-64 is a 64GB desktop DDR5 memory kit containing two 32GB modules. Designed for compatible DDR5 desktop platforms, it combines a rated transfer rate of 6000MT/s with CL30 timings, integrated RGB lighting, and support for AMD EXPO and Intel XMP 3.0 memory profiles.
The kit features black heat spreaders with RGB lighting and a standard 288-pin DIMM form factor. Its dual-module configuration provides 64GB of total memory capacity for compatible desktop systems.
Memory Performance and Profiles
The primary performance profile supports DDR5-6000 operation with timings of 30-36-36 at 1.4V. The programmed default JEDEC profile operates at DDR5-4800 with timings of 40-39-39 at 1.1V.
Additional performance profiles support DDR5-5600 with timings of 40-40-40 at 1.25V. AMD EXPO 1.1 and Intel XMP 3.0 allow compatible systems to configure the supported memory settings through system firmware.
Compatibility and Installation
This memory kit is designed for desktop motherboards supporting 288-pin DDR5 unbuffered DIMMs. It is not compatible with DDR4 memory slots or laptop SO-DIMM slots.
Achieving the rated 6000MT/s transfer rate may require enabling an appropriate EXPO or XMP profile in the system firmware. Actual operating speed depends on processor memory-controller capabilities, motherboard support, firmware settings, and the installed memory configuration.
Before purchasing, check the motherboard manufacturer's supported memory specifications and compatibility list for the intended processor and 64GB configuration.
RGB Lighting and Physical Design
The FURY Beast RGB design incorporates customizable RGB lighting and a black heat spreader. Kingston FURY Infrared Sync Technology helps synchronize the lighting effects across compatible modules. The module height is 42.23mm, including the heat spreader, which should be considered when checking clearance around CPU coolers and other components.

- Desktop computers requiring a 64GB DDR5 memory configuration.
- Gaming systems using compatible DDR5 motherboards and processors.
- Desktop workstations running memory-intensive applications.
- Custom PC builds incorporating RGB lighting and black components.
DC Supplies Product Note
Check memory compatibility and CPU cooler clearance before installation. The modules are 42.23mm tall, including their heat spreaders, and may interfere with some larger air coolers depending on the motherboard layout. For the rated DDR5-6000 performance, verify platform support and configure the appropriate memory profile if required.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a single 64GB memory module?
No. KF560C30BBEAK2-64 is a kit containing two 32GB DDR5 DIMMs, providing 64GB of total memory capacity.
Will this kit run at 6000MT/s automatically?
Not necessarily. The default JEDEC profile is DDR5-4800. Achieving DDR5-6000 may require enabling the appropriate EXPO or XMP profile on a compatible motherboard and processor.
Does this memory support both AMD and Intel platforms?
The kit includes AMD EXPO 1.1 and Intel XMP 3.0 profiles. Compatibility and achievable performance depend on the specific processor, motherboard, and firmware.
Is this suitable for a laptop?
No. This kit uses full-size 288-pin desktop DIMMs. Laptops generally require a different memory form factor, such as SO-DIMM, or have memory soldered directly to the system board.
Does on-die ECC make this a system-level ECC memory kit?
No. On-die ECC provides error correction within the DDR5 memory chips. This kit is unbuffered, non-ECC system memory and should not be substituted for dedicated system-level ECC memory where that functionality is required.
Will the RGB lighting synchronize with my motherboard?
The modules support RGB lighting features, but available synchronization options depend on the motherboard, supported lighting software, and system configuration.
