Worked for a while in Internals

This RAM was amazing at first. The only thing I don't like is that it's not even RAM, instead all the RGB you install require different software. I'm having an issue right now: after 6 months of use, the RGB light went out on one stick and then on the second. The function still works, but the eyes hurt. Now I have to wait and deal with a company trying to get a replacement. That means I don't have RAM until I send them mine and then they test it and send a new one or decide it's not covered. 14

Pros
  • . Supports Intel XMP 2.0 for easy installation with one configuration and optimal performance.
Cons
  • I will add later

This. Things. Watch. Deafening.

To be honest I'm still shocked at how great they look. I ordered them without doing much internet searching and at first I thought the RGB LED was some kind of scam like it was weak with lame colors or something. Now that I know Corsair and have tried their stuff before, I'm new to the RGB scene to be honest. And that was just after I hooked up the car and oh my god they look amazing! The colors look sooooo good and right from the start they glow and start circulating randomly between colors…

Pros
  • Take control of CORSAIR iCUE software and sync lighting across all your CORSAIR iCUE-compatible products, including memory modules, fans, coolers, keyboards and more.
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly

Quality, pretty and fast

The RAM is fast, but no better than the corresponding Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4-3000 16GB kit, which is usually cheaper. The kit I got is definitely not a Samsung B-Die, you can check it yourself with Thaiphoon Burner; I have v5.32. Surprisingly the heatsink is actually doing something and the LEDs are bright and beautiful. The iCUE processor is easy to use, offers a variety of RGB effects and can be synchronized with other Corsair products. If there was only one thing I would change it. , I…

Pros
  • Limited Lifetime Warranty gives you peace of mind.
Cons
  • fades out

for Ryzen 2000 series (2700X) users

it works very well with Ryzen 2700X (at lower frequencies), I managed to reach 3600MHz 16-17-17-36 (stable in games for 6 hours but unstable in stress tests , such as memtest64 barely finished) 5 cycles with some errors, then the system hung), so I tried to lower the frequency with tighter timing, so I got 3400 MHz 14-14-14-30 (stable in games for 68 hours , but unstable under stress). Tests like memtest64 ended 10 cycles with some errors, then the system crashed. So what is the ideal place…

Pros
  • High-performance DDR4 memory illuminates your system with vivid, animated illumination from ten individually addressable, ultra-bright RGB LEDs per module.
Cons
  • Not bad but...
