Overview
The Kingston FURY Beast KF560C30BBEK2-32 is a 32GB desktop DDR5 memory kit containing two 16GB modules. Designed for compatible desktop computers, it provides a rated data transfer rate of 6000MT/s and supports AMD EXPO and Intel XMP 3.0 memory profiles.
The kit features a black heat spreader design and a standard 288-pin DIMM form factor. Its two-module configuration provides 32GB of total memory capacity for compatible DDR5 desktop platforms.
Memory Performance and Profiles
The primary performance profile supports DDR5-6000 operation with timings of 30-36-36 at 1.4V. The default JEDEC profile operates at DDR5-4800 with timings of 40-39-39 at 1.1V.
Additional programmed 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 supported memory settings through the system firmware.
Compatibility and Installation
This kit is designed for desktop motherboards with 288-pin DDR5 DIMM slots. It is not compatible with DDR4 memory slots or laptop SO-DIMM slots.
Achieving the rated 6000MT/s speed may require enabling an appropriate EXPO or XMP profile in the system firmware. Actual operating speed depends on the processor's memory controller, motherboard capabilities, firmware, and system configuration.
Before purchasing, check the motherboard manufacturer's compatibility documentation for the intended processor, memory capacity, and supported operating speeds.
Key Features
- 32GB total capacity: Two 16GB DDR5 modules supplied as a matched kit.
- DDR5-6000 performance: Supports 6000MT/s with CL30-36-36 timings at 1.4V through the primary performance profile.
- AMD EXPO 1.1 support: Provides configurable memory profiles for compatible AMD platforms.
- Intel XMP 3.0 support: Provides additional memory profile configuration options on compatible Intel platforms.
- Black heat spreaders: Features a black finish and a low-profile module design.
Applications
- Desktop PC memory upgrades on compatible DDR5 platforms.
- Gaming computers with motherboards supporting DDR5-6000 memory profiles.
- General-purpose desktop systems requiring 32GB of memory.
- Desktop workstations running applications that benefit from additional memory capacity.
DC Supplies Product Note
The module height is 34.9mm, including the heat spreader. Check CPU cooler clearance and motherboard layout before installation. For the rated DDR5-6000 performance, verify processor and motherboard compatibility and confirm whether the appropriate memory profile needs to be enabled.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this kit contain two 16GB modules?
Yes. The KF560C30BBEK2-32 is a 32GB kit containing two 16GB DDR5 desktop memory modules.
Will this memory operate 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 system.
Does this kit support AMD and Intel platforms?
The memory includes AMD EXPO 1.1 and Intel XMP 3.0 profiles. Compatibility and achievable speeds depend on the processor, motherboard, and firmware.
Can I install this memory in a laptop?
No. This kit uses full-size 288-pin desktop DIMMs. Laptops that support replaceable memory typically require SO-DIMM modules instead.
Does the kit provide system-level ECC memory?
No. The modules incorporate on-die ECC as part of DDR5 technology, but they are non-ECC system memory. They should not be used as a substitute for system-level ECC memory where that functionality is required.
