A few weeks ago we took a quick look at the Micron 32GB DDR5-5600 ECC UDIMM Kit. We saw in the comments that folks recommended the V-Color 96GB kit. The kit came with two 48GB ECC UDIMMs for 96GB total. We paid $399 for the two DIMM kit. This is more than many non-ECC UDIMMs, but since the 32GB Micron ECC UDIMMs are $220 each, this V-Color kit offers more capacity at a lower cost.
V-Color 96GB DDR5-5600 48GB x2 ECC UDIMM Kit Quick Look
When the box arrived, we saw a fairly standard-looking V-Color box with the 96GB and 48GB x2 telling us what is inside.
The rear gives us more specs with the DDR5-5600 and PC5-44800 markings, CL46-45-45-90 markings, and the fact that these are ECC UDIMMs.
Here is the TE548G56D846K module with its label.
On the rear we can see the SK Hynix DIMM packages. You can see that the packages are installed in sets of five since these are ECC modules.
Here are two installed in the Gigabyte R113-C10 server.
We used these in a recent video where we put them in the most popular server barebones on Newegg right now.

Final Words
The main reason to get this kit over others is the price. At $399 it is far from cheap, but compared to the 32GB Micron DIMMs that have less capacity at higher cost, this feels like a much better option. We purchased some lower-cost kits, but those feel like a quality drop compared to these modules. We have been using the V-Color DDR5-7200 192GB ECC Kit for AMD Ryzen Threadripper and the V-Color 256GB 8x 32GB DDR5-6400 RDIMM Kit in workstation platforms, and that gave us confidence to buy the ECC UDIMM kit here. Maybe the best reasons to use these kits are simply that they work and they are less expensive than some alternatives.
