Review on ✨ Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 3600 (PC4-28800) C18 AMD Optimized Memory – Sleek Black Performance Upgrade by Matt Ellis

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Attention potential buyers! Ability to get modules with the terrible Nanya A-Die!

I bought these modules to upgrade my computer from 16GB to 32GB because I have a motherboard with only two DIMM slots. After installing them I tried to see if I could get more out of them, but everything I tried, from 3733 or 3866MHz, or cutting timings, resulted in POST errors, BSODs, or literally hundreds or thousands of errors in memtest . I launched Thaiphoon Burner and found that the ICs in the modules I received were not Samsung B-Die or Micron E-Die like the others, but rather Nanya A-Die. I've tried researching them and the limited information I've found has shown these ICs to be among the worst for overclocking. Even with the XMP profile, with increased voltage up to 1.45 V, VCCIO and VCCSA up to 1.35 V, and DRAM current up to 130%, these modules could not work without errors or program crashes. These ICs have nothing to do with the memory usage advertised for their overclocking ability and to be honest this is a clear scam with these ICs. I won't rate them right away as my experience seems isolated and they can be good with better ICs, but my review is to warn that it's possible to get these modules with a terrible Nanya A-Die.
