Review on Lexar 16GB Kit (8GBx2) DDR4 3200 MHz UDIMM Desktop Memory for Everyday Users, Performance Upgrade - Amazon Exclusive (LD4AU008G-R3200UDST) by Joey Pritchard

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Looks good, performs even better

Lexar manufactures memory chips with very high quality control. Doubling the total from 8GB to 16GB works out of the box, but is also easy to overclock for even more performance. Pushing this out to replace the DD4 location will enable the RAM on POST with no further issues. It's XMP compatible and speed (and overclocking) tuning is extremely easy. There's dedicated RAM-RGB coordination software, and Lexar RGB Sync takes up little space and retains settings across reboots (although the downside is that it's compatible with Windows out-of-the-box (Wine works with it for Linux). XMP comes with it reduces the performance.It's easy for the Intel man to configure in XMP, but should work just as well with a modern Ryzen system e.g. by buying this.The onboard overclocking feature also makes life extremely easy if you want,and it's also worth the purchase itself. The only "upgrade" you can make over that 16GB kit is to buy a 32GB kit.
