Purchased on: 21st of November 2018Delivered on: 22nd-24th of November 2018 (I believe it was either the 22nd or 23rd - It was FAST)Seller: Amazon EU S.a.r.LPrice: £57.07 (I wish I could return it to buy it again at the current price of <£40)EDIT: 30/05/19 -I bought ONE 8 GB stick ONLY because I knew, shortly down the line, I would add another of the same model to get Dual Channel (I only have a B250M-HDV Micro-ATX with 2 DIMM slots (where your RAM goes))IF your motherboard supports Dual Channel and has TWO or more DIMM slots, it's recommended to GET TWO 4 GB sticks rather than ONE SINGLE 8 GB stick.If your motherboard only has 2 DIMM slots like the B250M-HDV does, you could use a similar method to me,

I upgraded from 8GB of RAM which was perfectly adequate to 16GB and felt I should brag about it. However I now feel that anything less than 16GB in 2019 is having to compromise. I have two spare slots so I should buy another pair of these really.What is RAM actually used for in a PC? If you check the RAM actually in use it's likely that it will show you have a lot available. However there is a difference between Available and Free. To use an analogy you might be doing house hold chores but if your friends turn up as say come with us we're going to feed bread to the ducks you'd be Available. The job you were doing can wait.

Rebuilt the in-laws computer with this. Upgrading from a build made years ago using the A4-3300, 8GB DDR3 1600mhz ram and a 2.5 inch HDD I had laying around. Suffice it to say their old system was SLOW. They use it for really basic stuff, basically email and internet, but I wanted to make something snappy enough for them to last many years and that would age well.I chose to build using:-Intel i5 7500-MSI B250M PRO-VDH-Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (8GB x2) 3200mhz DDR4 RAM-Samsung 960 EVO 250GB SSDI reused their 430 watt Antec PSU, Rosewill mATX case, an LG sata DVD drive and a card reader.The install was quick and easy. Everything worked without a hitch from first boot to upgrading BIOS to installing Win 10 Pro and copying their data over and running updates.

Low profile 3200mhz DDR4 in a sexy looking shiny black heatsink.....Whats not to like???. Ok other than the price, but the form factor is nice and tidy and I haven't had any issues with them running at full speed in my Skylake build which is over 6 months old now and has been absolutely hammered gaming for all that time at ultra settings. Based on my previous experiences with this brand I don't expect any problems either. In short I highly recommend this RAM, I doubt you'll notice any real performance gains by the RAM itself as I would expect most sticks to be installed on new builds for the Skylake platforms (core i5 6600 or i7 6700 processors, Z / H170 chipsets etc.).

Right, so I ordered two of these and there was an issue with them. First things first, they come from different manufacturers.I'm not an expert (geek) but I managed to have a look in specs with CPU-Z. It works fine with XMP, improves the system a lot, for cheap. The look nice, I have the black model. Both in system (2x8GB) improved my PUBG experience and made the game smooth. overall my system runs smooth now..now the problem:they have at least two manufacturers which are Samsung and Micron.first one I got was from Micron and second one from Samsung.Micron, is fire. works really good.Samsung burned out after one week or so.You can see the manufacturer in software (CPU-Z).My system was freezing

I used this ram in a workstation that I built with the Ryzen 1800x over a year ago. At that time I could only get it to run at 2866, even after numerous bios updates on my MSI motherboard. There were a few times I got it to run at 3200 but not stable. Fast forward to last month when my computer starts crashing and memtest shows one of my sticks as faulty. Corsair provided the best RMA experience I have ever had. Via advanced replacement, they sent me a new set of ram before I sent the faulty set to them. I had to pay for the replacement ram but I was quickly reimbursed and not even questioned about my faulty ram. It was a breath of fresh air to not have to prove to an RMA department that their product does not work only to have it sent right back to you on your dime.

the start of 2018 was something special for me. i had acquired enough money to finally get into building my own rig. and going from a i3 540 @ 3.02GHz | 4GB of ram and a GT640. this was the biggest upgrade to date and with the arrival of 8th gen intel processors the i5 seemed like a good entry point.my build was originally meant to beintel i5 8600k8GB RAMNvidia GT780 (gifted by caring community member)Corsair 750m PSUand just 3 months in with the 8GB of ram 1 stick had failed on me. noticing that i was caping out on ram super quick upon start up as well as in games performance had crippled. i might have just got a bad batch or something but no harm overall to the PC.

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,

I've had this RAM for about 18 months and it's worked pretty well. Every now and then upon boot, (this has happened less and less frequently as time went on) I would get a message saying "Overclocking failed" and I would have to go into the BIOS, re-enable the XMP file and go on my way. Not a huge issue but I was never really sure why it would occasionally fail on boot.It's never been a huge issue, just a minor inconvenience. Another minor inconvenience is that the aluminum casing on one side of the RAM stick came off. I opened up my case one day and saw it laying on my GPU and just decided to keep it off so it didn't fall again and potentially block a fan or knock something loose.

Have had these for a few months now and they haven't failed me once. I've bought ram from them before and will continue to purchase from them.Firstly the ram sticks themselves look slick. Nice looking heat spreader and will help if your looking for a clean build. Multiple colour selections also. My case is windowed and it looks great in it compared to seeing green in your case.By default they run at 2133mhz but this is easily changeable by going into the bios and enabling xmp. This will allow them to run at their rated speed. Currently in my z370 mobo which houses an i7 8700 and it works great together. Personally ram speed isn't that big of a factor in my opinion but that depends on if your using ryzen etc,

Bought Corsiar standard memory 2600mhz 2 sticks 8gb each so it balanced across the DIMM sockets installed on a MSI x470 motherboard running a ryzen5 processor, MSI GTX 1070 gpu. Installed with no issues put together in under 20 minutes and booted up and windows 10 installed within the hour. Bullet proof ram you can go for faster speeds up to 3600mhz for this motherboard but ££ against speed your not going to notice any benefit unless your a speed geek more interested in measuring speed over playing games or even video editing better adding more sticks …. my opinion of Course. Ensure you check out what RAM your processor can manage before buying bigger ram only to find out that your processor cant use it (wasted money and hours trying to tweak it to get the stated speed out of it),

Really happy with this kit, also came with a ram cooler which I fitted (might as well).Installed on a Gigabyte Aorus X570 Pro with a 3700x.Initially just enabled the XMP profile and straight to 3200mhx it went with no issues, job done in many ways but then looking at performance it seems 3600mhz is a sweet spot for performance with as you can then run the fabric clock at 1:1 1800mhz which increases the cpu performance.So with slightly relaxed timings (16-19-19-40) and a voltage bump to 1.38v everything is stable in memtest 86 at 3600mhz.On research I have version V5.32 with Hynix dies.I do think the motherboard played a big part in this being possible as well as the memory support on the 3rd Gen Ryzens.

I bought a set of the 16GB(2x8) 3200MHz C16 memory last year for the gaming rig I built. It ran great - doesn't overclock very well, but at advertised speed and timings it runs without any problems. Excellent value for high speed DDR4.The only reason this isn't a 5 star review is that I purchased a second kit to bump my PC up to 32GB, but the kit I received was DOA. PC would not boot with the new RAM installed. I removed them, it booted fine. Replaced my original set with the new set, praying it wasn't a dead DIMM slot in my motherboard, but again it wouldn't even boot up into the BIOS and gave C1 error code for failure to detect memory. Filed for a replacement and the new kit arrived 2 days later & works flawlessly.

First stick didn't work, which can happen with this sort of thing, but diagnosing it was a bugger and nearly cost me the PC I'd bought to put it in.If you put the ram in and the computer starts acting funny, boots into windows and is sluggish then resets or fails to boot, then remove the ram, even if it sees the ram in the system with the full 8 gigs. Leaving it in and trying to find out if it was another component corrupted the system files which meant it then behaved oddly even with new ram in. Had to reinstall windows with other ram before it was diagnosed.That said. These things happen with ram. No fault of the seller who replaced immediately and second stick works fine. Buy with confidence.

I had bought two of these sticks of ram on separate occasions, starting my pc build with 8gb and then upgrading to two sticks to make 16gb. I made sure to buy exactly the same ram to ensure compatibility. Unfortunately the second stick caused my pc to get blue screen errors and crash constantly. It was version 5.3 I think. Anyway, I contacted Corsair support and they replied quickly, confirming that the RAM was faulty and said to exchange via Amazon which I did. The replacement worked perfectly (and also had a different version number) so although the ram works well and is good value and the customer support from Corsair and Amazon was really good,
