This review is about the CORSAIR Vengeance LPX-16gb RAM 3000 Mhz (C15)These were coupled with an Ryzen 5 2600 and a MSI B450 Tomahawk. It worked greatly and without any problems, was easy to input into the motherboard and came packaged neatly and safely. It also looks good in your system with a black or white setup although it doesn’t come with RGB.This informational review is aimed for new PC builders. Therefore, if you are already knowledgeable in RAM there is no need to continue.1. (C15) refers to CAS Latency, which is how quickly your RAM responds to a command, you really won't see a difference at all between CL15 and CL16 although you will notice C15 is considerably more expensive as it is better in synthetic bench marks but you wouldn’t notice this in real world performance.Therefore get whichever one you want.2. Mhz refers to how fast the RAM performs. The speed of a computer processor, or CPU, is determined by the clock cycle. Computer processors can execute one or more instructions per clock cycle, depending on the type of processor. Therefore the higher Mhz the Ram outputs, the faster the RAM can perform tasks. (3000-3200Mhz is considered the sweet spot for mid-higher end workstation + gaming), any beyond this is overkill for your average needs and unecessary money spent.3. GB refers to Gigabytes: Some computer programs, especially Windows, uses RAM to swap frequently loaded programs back and forth, it makes the computer seem to run faster. Therefore in simple terms, the higher the GB the more tasks your system can perform at once before it starts slowing down your machine.Recap: What you want in your system for your needs1. Higher GB8GB is standard for workstation purposes and light gaming.16 GB recommended/a must for medium to higher end gaming.32 GB is for higher end computers, and unecessary unless you are doing a very heavy work load at once which requires it.(More GB = More tasks your machine can run at once)2. Mhz(3000-3200 is the sweet spot, nothing more is required unless necessary for your use).3. BrandBrands make their ram different. However Corsair is known for its tech, are very reputable and trustworthy, therefore they are a company you can depend on that make good quality products.4. (CAS Latency)Latency won’t be an issue, get which ever one is labelled cheaper as long as it has any of the above I mentioned.Happy building!

Even though my PC is a closed box, solid sides, I still wanted a spalsh of my signature colour inside the white case with predominantly black components! Don't be put off by some of the pictures you see of this that make it look like a flat, dull red. These sticks of RAM are like a sparkly candy-apple red, as shown in some photos of it installed.Other than that, er, yeah, it's RAM. A few things for you to consider thought when buying RAM:1. What will your CPU actually support? A core i7 9700 (like I have) will only take advantage of 2666MHz. You can use faster RAM like this, but the gains for Intel are marginal.2. Faster RAM doesn't necessarily mean better. Aside from capacity,RAM also comes with a couple of other key numbers. Speed (3200MHz in this case) and latency (C16 in this case). You need to consider both, and there is a formula for it (assuming dual channel here):latency/speed*2000 = 16/3200*2000 = 10nanosecondsIf you do the maths, you'll see that 15/3000*2000 also equals 10 nanoseconds. So, you'll often find that faster ram has slightly worse latency, which broadly balances out. So why buy faster if slower can ultimately perform the same on paper? More bandwidth - simple as that. For a given latency, yes, more MHz is better, and you are always better off getting as much bandwidth as you can afford, but, you'll find that high speed and low latency starts to get very expensive very quickly and for marginal gains (read, bragging rights).It also depends on what you are using your PC for as to what to get. For gaming, you aren't going to get much benefit from super-fast RAM and using more than 16GB of it. There's always a performance/benefit curve with PCs and components, and the best PCs are those that use components in good balance.

Purchased 2x8GB 3000MHZ sticks ( Corsair CMK16GX4M2C3000C16 Vengeance LPX 16 GB) which cost me a whopping £199 and some change. Memory was bought alongside a new Ryzen 1700 and ROG STRIX x370 -F MOBO, to build a new system with. Imagine my horror when, on initial boot up, my brand new motherboard reported this memory as 2133MHZ! Arrrgh. Anyway, knowing from many years of experience NOT TO PANIC, I duly panicked. But here's the upshot of my story just in case others may have similar issues. Step one was to upgrade my MOBO BIOS, as you do. This gave me many more options for memory settings including the 3000MHZ option. Great, I thought. Now just set it to correct rating and away you go, right?Well,no actually. It appeared regardless of memory settings used the system was unstable and would blue screen on Windows, or lock up on Linux. Of course, this was all intermittent and random, but I was pretty sure it was a memory issue, in spite of memory now being correctly set. Long story, short. Only when I over-clocked my memory to 3200MHZ did the system become rock solid! Yeah, crazy I know, but there you go. So, I know it wouldn't be the first thing to try, but maybe if your memory isn't playing nicely and all else fails. It may be worth a try. The memory itself seems solidly made, if rather expensive. Oh, last thing to mention, I only purchased this memory recently so I will update if things change.

There isn't much you can say about this stuff really. It does what it's supposed to do. At the moment it's great value for money and is about the best price/performance for intel 7 and 8 series systems.There are other, different frequency RAMS, but offset by worse timing and higher prices so overall tiny performance increases at higher cost. If you really want the next step up, another two percent performance, then you have to increase your spend by 20% or so and buy 3200Mhz CAS 14.Do remember that there is no guarantee that this will work at the advertised settings in your PC. This is not a limitation of the RAM, rather of your PC. The default setting for the RAM is 2133,and every system will run at that speed but the moment you go above that frequency the rest of your system may well fail. To try full speed you need to enable XMP in the BIOS. If that doesn't work then it's down to you to tweak the settings until you find some that works. No guarantees. Series 7 is guaranteed to work at 2133 and series 8 at 2666, but most will work at 3200. 3000 and 3200 are popular and performance difference between them is pretty much unmeasurable so just buy which is cheaper.On XMP I discovered my motherboard was going just a bit high on the voltages so I actually set everything up manually and slightly lowered the voltage. In fact it was 100% happy at 1.3V.

I got the 16gb (2x8) 3000mhz kit as an upgrade, as I was previously on 8GB RAM clocked at 2133mhz when I originally built my PC. Whilst my current mobo doesn't go over 2133mhz (unless in XMP for 2400 I think, I leave it off anyway), the dual channel support is still there. Overall, even though I've only used this new kit for half a day, they are very smooth and much better than the 8gb I was on.Before, when I was playing games such as Battlefront 2 or Black Desert Online, I would suffer huge stuttering when in areas with a lot going on, due to the nature of the games, however I'm able to play them just fine now with the extra 8gb of RAM compared to before, even if I'm not fully utilizing the speeds offered by the sticks.Figured it would better to get these sticks with these speeds, for when I eventually make the jump to Ryzen and upgrade the mobo, to adjust for the higher RAM speeds used by Ryzen and the recent-ish price drops to RAM in general making the purchase more viable.Anyway, before I get derailed too much, great sticks, easy installation, prompt delivery from Amazon. I'd probably reccommend 16gb of RAM, over just 8gb, if you're planning on playing recent games (or VR games) as 8gb just isn't enough anymore.

This RAM stick is lightening fast. Totally brilliant and one of the best in the market for high end gaming. This is for a gaming rig I hooked up for my kids. It was long overdue.I am using a Asus TUF Gaming X570-PLUS motherboard with a AMD Ryzen-5 3600 MHz 6-Core processor with this Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB DDR4 3200MHz RAM. My graphics card is ASUS Radeon RX 580 8GB Dual-Fan OC Edition GDDR5. The PSU is Corsair RM650. I'm using two hard disks in this. The booting is Western Digital WD Blue SSD 250 GB SATA III and the bulk storage is a standard 1 TB Seagate Baracuda as the secondary. All this is housed in a Corsair Carbide Series CC-9011050-WW cabinet.I'm using Samsung 27 inch Curved LED Backlit Computer Monitor and Redgear Pro Series Wired Gamepad. The keyboard mouse combo is Redgear Manta MT21 Gaming Keyboard. The sound is from F&D F-203G 2.1 Channel Multimedia Speakers System. Everything is bought here on Amazon within days of each other and it is perfectly matched.I recommend this RAM and whole setup to anyone interested in building a top-of-the-line gaming computer that will not be outdated anytime soon.Highly recommended.

Corsair is, perhaps, the most famous brand of RAM stick, and rightly deserved.These bad boys came up as the perfect trade-off between performance and price at the time of my research, and no doubt they'll hold up for years to come.I was so pleased with the find that I bought two! Really, two packs of two, for four total RAM sticks, which my motherboard indeed accommodates as I type this. Honestly, 32GB is very excessive for my needs, but I figured that I was aiming to make this PC build long-lasting, and therefore I should buy the RAM sticks now which I would need perhaps ten years from now (since it is advisable, for compatibility, that all RAM sticks in one system have the same make and model,and I made it the exact same product in the exact same purchase transaction - though the serial numbers are off by a couple thousand (which goes to show the incredible popularity of these RAM sticks, I suppose)).If this product fails earlier than seems -by my personal approximation- reasonable, then I will update this review.

Not sure how to rate memory, it either works or it doesn't.However a couple of things to mention, it is listed as 2400 memory but it shows as 2133 in bios on the Asus Z107-A MB. This has to be manually selected to 2400.Apparently this is normal as the memory is listed as 2400 OC (which presume means Over Clocked), so is NOT true 2400. (my fault I didn't realise this!)Have stability issues with my MB sometimes freezing and upon reboot warns that overclocking failed. As I don't overclock, (other than the memory setting), then I can only assume it refers to the memory speed at 2400. In which case that makes it incapable of running at its advertised speed. A bit misleading,but looks like all manufacturers do the same.This has only happened 3 times since purchase, so not a great problem. I haven't run it at 2133, so don't know what impact it would have on system performance. Some reviews show very little difference.I have not had any specific memory issues though.

I recently made a massive PC upgrade/overhaul, moving from an FX-8320 and FXA-990 mobo...to a R7 2700X and Gigabyte Aorus X470 Ultra Gaming. With that said, I also had to retire my 32GB HyperX DDR3 1600MHz CL10 RAM. I couldn't downgrade in RAM capacity, and intend to max out my mobo's DIMMs at some point. Judging by the "Verified Purchase", and this review, you can guess what I ultimately went with.Out of the box, you'll expect, and might be confused, as to why the RAM is running at 2133MHz. This is pretty standard. So you'll definitely need to go into your UEFI BIOS and select "XMP Profile 1" to ensure it's running at its best. It might vary on how/where you need to enable that.But I've decided to attach some images from my BIOS.Since I don't have other DDR4 to compare this to, I can't offer benchmarks. All in all, it's low profile, and even if it isn't RGB--it still looks great.

I had absolutely no idea that there were so many different types of Ram these days. This was my third attempt as I was having difficulty in reading the labels on my pc's original ram and the paperwork that came with the pc was "generic" not specific to my setup, so I wasn't sure that even Corsair's amazing website help was right. Amazon were absolutely brilliant in exchanging each wrong purchase. I was relieved when I opened the package and it looked as if it would fit. Opened up my pc (yet again) placed it where it should go - in it popped. I put my pc back together, turned it on. I noticed the difference immediately. Before fitting this I had time to turn on the monitor and either the keyboard or mouse - not this time.I checked the settings and I had doubled my ram - at last! PC still working perfectly and very fast.

I originally had 32 GB on my computer but, needed 64 GB due to virtualisation of hardware. I got on this on sale when it was roughly £400 cheaper than other offerings. I have bought Corsair lpx vengeance for many years, and it is still as reliable as it comes. it was an inexpensive upgrade and very affordable and the stability is rock solid. when the ram was inserted my computer instantly detected the upgrade. I am an old school person who still uses air cooling as it is more reliable than liquid cooling and my cooler was huge. thanks to Corsair's low profile heatsink I was able to install it without having to remove the CPU fan. All in all this is a great upgrade and it works well with high end games that are really demanding its a good all rounder.I recommend this kit for anyone who wants an inexpensive upgrade.

so i am a gamer and video editor who makes YouTube videos and reviews tech products. i recently started getting into some very heavy multitasking and video editing and realised that the 16gbs of ram i had in my system just wasn't enough to handle what i was doing os i decided to buy another 16gbs of ram to bring it up to 32gbs of ram. it arrived very quickly and it was super easy to install in my system. it just worked straight away. i checked the bios to make sure everything was working correctly and it was. ever since i have gotten the extra 16gbs of ram it has made my system slightly faster and i am able to do more multitasking and am able to edit very intensive footage and has give me a better overall gaming experience.i would recommend this products for your pc 100%

When ordering this, I was a little concerned about compatibility with the current RAM I had in my PC (Corsair 1x16GB with a CAS latency of CL19). I didn't need to worry at all :). This RAM works perfectly in Dual Channel mode with my current RAM, now I have 2x16GB it has definitely increased the performance of my PC.For any gamers that are interested, here is a before and after average FPS from Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War(Tested on Cartel map in Combined Arms, as this is the most graphically intense map/mode)Before: (1x16GB RAM) - Settings High/Ultra 1080p - FPS between 70-100After: (2x16GB RAM)- Settings High/Ultra 1080p - FPS between 90-100Having 2 sticks of RAM in Dual Channel has ironed out FPS highs and lows with my Nvidia GTX 1660 SUPER.

Built new vr gaming system a couple of months ago with 2 x 16gb sticks of same ram. Decided (with trepidation) to upgrade to 4x 8gb of same ram. I say with trepidation as have read several reviews whereby people had issues with XMP/DOCP not allowing correct clock speed, or not even booting. I am running AMd Ryzen 5 3600 on rog strix b450f motherboard using 1901 bios version. Reset clock speed to default, inserted new sticks, booted (took a min or so). System booted. Rebooted, went into bios and changed clock speed from 2133 to 3200mhz. Everything worked straight away, all 4 sticks OC'd to 3200 mhz. I think it may have helped as I made sure all 4 sticks had samsung chips on them. So for me and my rig,all worked well with no issues with 4 sticks of ram.

If you are considering buying a ram buy this one over the 2400 mhz red vengeance LPX stick for just a couple of hundreds more you will get 3k mhz ram which will also be easily recognized by any motherboard, don't forget to enable your xmp profile for AMD builds.Also the ram prices keep changing very frequently, Inbought this for 3500 rupees so my advice wouod be to.keep an eye on the price and purchase as soon as it gets low.Talking about its performance, its fantastic, for a class 16 RAM the timings are what you'd expect and fornthe brand corsair stability is again what you'd expect.Before my upgrade I was using ddr3 ram from kingston (hyperx fury) and newer games like apex legends ran very choppy,upgrading to this made the game buttery smooth.
