Embodiments of the invention are generally directed to systems, methods, and apparatuses for improving latency by offsetting cyclic redundancy check lanes from data. In some embodiments, a memory device includes a memory array to provide read data bits and a cyclic redundancy code (CRC) generator to generate CRC bits corresponding to the read data bits. In addition, the memory device may include a transmit framing unit to transmit the read data bits and the CRC bits to a host, wherein the transmit framing unit includes logic to offset the transmission of the CRC bits from the transmission of the read data bits based, at least in part, on an offset value. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
