Review on πŸ’ͺ Corsair Vengeance Pro Series 16GB DDR3 1600MHz Black Desktop Memory - High-Performance RAM for Improved PC Speed by Joshua Romero

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great product - don't forget bios xmp active 1600 MHz

I got the memory cards and installed them. The computer didn't work any better. I checked the speed and it worked at 1333MHz. I logged into YouTube and it needs to be enabled in the BIOS by enabling XMP storage mode. It's now running at 1600MHz and my system runs noticeably smoother. My PC is a budget Oculus Rift PC and I've noticed a noticeable reduction in VR multiplayer latency. 5 out of 5 stars! My computer is an i5-3570k with socket 1155. I've moved the RAM to 1600MHz with this Vengeance Pro Series setup and will be installing the i7-3770. I have a GTX 1080. The maximum motherboard frequency is i7-3770 and 1600MHz.

Pros
  • wide range
Cons
  • functionality
