Review on XPG Spectrix D80 Liquid-Cooled RGB DDR4 3000MHz 16GB (2X8GB) 288-Pin PC4-24000 Desktop U-DIMM Memory Retail Kit (AX4U300038G16-DR80) by Patrick Arnautov

I could have gotten a bad set but after two years I've finally traced all the annoying problems with my computer to this component. The problem with bad RAM is that there is no real indication that they are the problem but they cause a whole bunch of annoying issues like blue screen of death (BSOD), browser tab crash, game crash, application crash, stuttering, visual disturbances and so on. The XMP profile caused a BSOD almost immediately. To make matters worse, this RAM has passed memtest86, proving that memtest86 doesn't always detect faulty modules. Anyhow, I replaced these modules with a Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4 DRAM 3200MHz Kit which sells for $70 less and charges faster. All the above problems are gone. I know this XPG kit comes with a lifetime warranty, but I won't bother with it. I just wanted to leave this review to let everyone know that you really shouldn't be buying this RAM instead of a Corsair kit. It's overpriced along with the potential issues you might run into.
