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,

I've previously used Corsair for my Ivy Bridge DDR3 setup and was very pleased with those. The performance works well and I had no issue getting XMP profies to work. The Red color is also very strong, like lipstick you'd get from that famous scene in 'Mad Men' which is nice.You would buy these if you were going to install an after-market air cooler for your CPU, because clearance issues on fans are a real thing.The only complaint I can foresee is that my old set of Vengeance memory started to die after 3 years. I get that that's what their warranty was for but I'd almost prefer them to die outright and force an upgrade than give me a blue screen every other day.

Purchased 2 x 16 GB 3000MHz sticks to be installed in a Asus Maximus Code iXTook 2 mins to Install, changed the XMP in the bios, booted up the system and now up and running with no issues or conflicts. 3000MHz joy :)I went with the 4M2B version --> 4M2B3000C15 mainly because personally i tend to go for hardware that is listed on the manufacturers QVL. I also plan on using these LPX ram on my next build in a maximum hero IX or X, so for me its all about ensuring i can use these on other motherboards without worrying about if the hardware hasn't been tested to work with a particular motherboard.I would defiantly recommend the Corsair LPX Ram.

Fast fast fast. With these being 4ddr you get the speed and performance required. I am currently saving up to buy another pair to fill my ram sockets.First time PC builders a tip for ram1. Make sure 1 ram goes into the slot furthest from your CPU. 2nd ram is then installed into slot 3. I didn't realise this.2. More force is required for these to click into place.I was scared I was going to snap them or break my mobo. They do need more force than you think.Overall lightning quick product.

Whilst I rate Corsair very well mid-June 2017 AMD Ryzen AM4 motherboards are having issues getting any 3200 memory to work beyond 2133 or 2933 for some reason - well discussed in technical web pages.This RAM is on MSI's QVL rated at 3200 but never attained even with latest drivers eg MSI B350 Tomahawk's latest 7A34v15 bios update and despite changing bios settings.I would wait until the motherboard makers have definitely fixed these issues as presently there are very mixed experiences.

Corsair's LPX series has a very good name for itself, and it has definitely lived up to expectations. If you're planning on upgrading your PC or building a new one and need affordable DDR4 memory, i'd recommend this.It performs great, and has a nice low-profile making it extra useful when install an aftermarket heatsink.In addition with the market on PC components gradually settling and constant sales, you should be able to grab a high frequency set for a very decent price.

Overall boosted gaming FPS around 40% compared to my old 2666Mhz HyperX with the same timings.Only edited the CPU cache ratio from the default 43 to 44 so it can match the RAM frequency and get those juicy 22:1 ratio and crazy 39ns latency that destroys any Ryzen CPU with their lazy 75ns and up!The RAM timings can be easily set to 17-17-17-39 stable @1.4v stock voltageCPU: I7-9700K @4.6GHz stockMB: ASRock Z390 itx/ac (BIOS v4.00)RAM: Corsair 4400Mhz 19-19-19-39 kit

It's RAM, what's there to review? it either works or it doesn't. Well, I had Vengeance LPX 8 GB (2 x 4 GB) installed, but, the black variant. I bought this matched pair in red so I could easily identify what are the matching pairs in future.Lots have said XMP doesn't work for them, well, I had no problems turning it on with this RAM. It's a nice little boost and doing a few benchmarks I get reports that my RAM is over-performing compared to similar rigs. Good stuff!

I managed to pick up this ram for around £67, which was a really good deal due to the surge of ram prices. The ram didn't work on my system but only because I'm an idiot as my system is AMD, and the ram wasn't compatible with my motherboard, hence constant BSODs. I eventually sold it off to my mate for his intel build and it has worked perfectly, no problems whatsoever. Moral of the story: Always make sure the ram is compatible with your system.

Oh ... my ... God ...This product is absolutely mental. Sleek, slender finish that will fit under just about any CPU cooler you're going to buy!! It's not bulky like some of the RipJaws RAM, and does the job exactly. I personally have a Hyper 212 EVO CPU cooler, and these just fit under the fan, allowing me to maximise my RAM port usage!!Honestly recommend this. I stepped up from 16GB to 32 and I am not looking back -- awesome product!!

Great entry level memory. DDR4 2666 is what you wanna use if you’re not bothered about over clocking as these won’t be able to OC. They have the XMP2 profile so that will boost them to their potential. So overall good memory for a gaming system running a good i5 or even an i7 like 8700k or 8086k. But if you wanna go for OC XMP2 start from 3600 onwards also make sure your board can take higher frequency.

Bought 16 GB and then within few days bought another pack of 16 GB. Running total 32GB of DDR4 RAM is awesome. Perfect for running a lot of VMware labs as those are RAM hungry... It leaves me just over 2 GB of free RAM when everything is powered up (3 virtual ESXi hosts, vCSA appliance, Win2012 server, virtual Win10 management PC and several nested VMs). I don't do gaming, so can't comment on that.

Bought 2x4gb sticks of 2400mhz had them installed since early december. both stable and easily overclocked to 2800mhz with just a little more voltage and I think I may be able to push it a little further! Really should of gone for atleast the 3000mhz sticks though, but that was my mistake for not looking properly!Never had a problem with corsair RAM so I would always recommend to anyone.

I have the same kit in red, just wanted to double my memory capacity. Only issue I had was my BIOS not registering it at first, but after clearing the CMOS it worked perfectly.Love the design of it and the feel of great quality, the reasonable prices of RAM right now were what made me decide to upgrade - I made the decision to stick with 8GB when I built my PC just to keep the cost down.

Considering there is a global DRAM shortage which is why this stick is around £50 and not £30, its pretty good in comparison to some other prices.I did, however, receive a dead stick but a replacement was swiftly sent so thank you very much for that. It works beautifully!!Not much to say seeing as it's the computer that uses it and not the human but does the job while looking awesome.
