💻 Corsair Vengeance Blue 4GB DDR3 1600 MHz Desktop Memory (CMZ4GX3M1A1600C9B) - 1x4GB, PC3 12800, 1.5V Review

I use this memory in a computer that I work on a lot, and I constantly stress all cores for hours or days for my work. It was throwing all sorts of errors that I just couldn't debug, and it took me forever to figure out that one of the RAM sticks was defective. I bought it as a replacement and now it works great. The fact is that this very brand and model went badly (although black instead of blue. I believe they are the same). So should I give a lot of stars for the one I just got or should I…

Fantastic, very fast and great to play with. You don't need to go beyond 1600MHz for gaming, at least not for 2014-2015 games. You might need better ones for CAD work or whatever, but I haven't tested it for that kind of application, only gaming. You can overclock them a bit if you want and they'll stay stable, but I wouldn't recommend doing this for too long as they heat up pretty quickly. If you want an OC, just spend another $20 for the extra MHz and don't worry about the OC. But as said…

I bought a 4GB kit to install in a rig I was building for a relative. RAM works perfectly with ASRock MB-A75MHVS Socket FM1/ AMD A75 FCH/ DDR3/ SATA3&USB3.0/ A&GbE/ MATX motherboard and AMD A6-3650 APU with AMD Radeon 6530 HD Graphics 2.6GHz Socket FM1, 100W Quad-Core – Retail AD3650WNGXBOX . With 4GB at 1600MHz, that's more than enough for normal tasks like web browsing, apps, video streaming, and light gaming. Thanks again Corsair for quality RAM at a good price.
