💾 Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB DDR4 3200MHz RAM Kit - Black | Fast Performance Desktop Memory (2x8GB) - CMK16GX4M2B3200C16 Review

I wanted to like this RAM, but I couldn't get it to work reliably at the advertised voltage, speed (1.35V/3200MHz). This prompted me to do some research and I've learned a lot in the last few days, so I thought I'd try to summarize the important points below as it might be helpful for those thinking about upgrading. 32 GB of "fast" DDR4 RAM. The stated usage characteristics of this RAM are not supported. I mean the RAM is rated at 3200 MHz and 1.35 Volts, but it's not supported at those values.

So I got to the RAM. I bought it along with the rest of the components on the same day in the DNS store. The price at that time for RAM was greatly overestimated in general. I took this set of two dice of 8 gigabytes for 14 thousand rubles. The frequency of this RAM was due to its price, only 2400 megahertz, but in bios I managed to overclock it to 2666 with timings of 16 16 16 36. I bought this RAM at the beginning of 2018 and so far I'm completely satisfied with its performance. In 2019, I…

RAM is an integral part of any personal computer ... there is nothing interesting to tell here, but I'll try :-D I purchased this memory together with an Intel I5-6600K processor, so I considered only DDR4. I did not know how much volume I would need, so I decided not to waste time on trifles and took 16 GB. (two 8 GB sticks.) The operating frequency of this memory is 3200 MHz. I can’t even imagine where it might take so much ... or whether the processor and the motherboard will even allow…

This is RAM, it has heat spreaders, this is a 2x8GB kit (total 16GB). The description and pictures could be better, so here are actual pictures of what comes with the order 1. It is calculated that the height of the expander can be useful for those who plan to use monster heatsinks with their new Skylake- to use chips. Update 2017 - September (2 years later) - The original kit still works fine on the system that is my daily workstation (on 24/7). I've since bought half a dozen more of these…

I bought this kit mainly because of the price, I couldn't find much info on this RAM at the time of purchase. They come in no-frills standard packaging and installation was as easy as any other RAM module. I adjusted the XMP settings in the bios and checked the speed, they work at a frequency of 3600MHz with a Ryzen 3900X processor on an x570 Taichi motherboard. After checking what type of memory they have, I found out I have Micron E-Die memory. This works great for my purpose, but your…

So even as an experienced PC builder, I made a pretty serious mistake when I bought this memory. Nothing that would damage the system or anything like that. Hell, it couldn't even boot. The memory itself installed perfectly and the system booted without any problems. However, upon booting into Windows, I noticed that the memory only runs at 2133MHz, which is a bit below what I paid extra for. I thought that the motherboard just doesn't recognize higher speed. Not exactly unusual. So I went into

I spent over 20 hours reinstalling the OS and updating the software. I never thought that RAM could be defective. I was asked to run memtest86 and send pictures of the memory. Memtest86 can't even pass the test because of the sheer amount of errors. You should get back to me within 2 days. I uploaded photos and test results 5 days ago. I'm still waiting to hear from them. CORSAIR should invest in quality control and customer service, not fancy circuit boards and cooling fins; just like any…
