My current PC setup is an i7 920 from 2008, so my desktop PC is probably in need of a refresh. Now as my 2010 Mac Pro handles all my photo & video editing, that means I can be a bit more free with picking either an AMD or intel setup.Of course getting new RAM through means I now have an official reason to upgrade my PC. Thankfully birthday also came around and I ended up with a Asus - STRIX B350-F GAMING motherboard and Ryzen 5 2600 (my first AMD setup since a DX4-100!).As siad before, this is DDR4 ram. DDR4 ram works with either intel or AMD motherboards / cpus . THis pack holds two sticks of 8GB, making a matched pair of 16GB. The blurb on the box says it runs at 2666 MHz, which is the slowest of the range,but also the cheapest (Corsair will be releasing 4000 MHz ram and higher soon). If you are buying a non-overclocking motherboard / CPU of if you want a low price computer setup, then this will be more than fine for you. Also 16GB will be more than enough memory for most people, but you can get a second pair for 32GB on most boards with four DIMM slots.Of course the main draw for these DIMMs is the RGB lighting.The tops of the DIMMs are frosted plastic to make the ten individual RGB LEDs blur into each other for a smooth lit look. The DIMMs are in two case colours: Vengeance RGB PRO White and Vengeance RGB Black. The memory chips and LEDs are the same, just the plastic shell is a different colour. There are more white computer components available to buy now, so you don't have to go with the old bog standard black (unless you want to). Also, the DIMMs don't need any extra cables to connect for the LEDs to work, it's all done through the slot.Slotting in the DIMMS was a doddle and after I had updated the motherboard firmware (seems to cure a lot of initial problems), Windows installation was a breeze and I downloaded the iCUE software that has all the lighting controls. When the program is running, either click on Instant lighting to pick a single colour or hit the Vengence RGB Pro section and mess around with colour, and movement to your heart's delight. You can also switch off the colour here as well (which I did after about half an hour, 'cos I'm old). There's also other components that have RGB LEDs (ie, keyboards, fans, etc) and with the iCUE software you can sync all the coloursEverything just works now. The system is incredibly snappy with a SSD boot drive and a new quiet PSU. This is good memory.

I originally put my PC together in August 2016 with an Intel i7-6700K processor, Gigabyte GA-Z170X-Gaming 3 EU motherboard and 2 x 8GB Corsair Vengeance 3200 DDR4 RAM. The RAM cost just over a hundred quid at the time and I had planned to get a second 16GB when I had the money, but the cost of RAM has more than doubled in that time so I kept tracking the price and putting off buying more.Assembling my PC back in 2016 was a real pain, and I doubt whether I would buy a Gigabyte motherboard again, it's just so touchy, with me pulling my hair out for the first month of ownership just trying to make all the components work together.Eventually it settled down and I could run my RAM at 3200MHz.So I was super-excited to get this pack of 2 x 8GB Corsair Vengeance RAM to test. This is the 3000MHz version with an LED light display. The LEDs are not really meaningful to me as my PC case doesn't have a viewing window but it is attractive when in use. Corsair say the LED display doesn't affect performance in any way.What I didn't bargain for is that my Gigabyte motherboard really isn't interested in having all four strips of RAM in place at the same time. I can run my original RAM or this new RAM just fine, but plug them all in at once and by PC boot loops. Gigabyte support simply say you can't mix two different speeds of RAM, but given that I was running it at 2000MHz I find this hard to believe.So, what have I learned? That my PC requires exactly matched RAM, not just extremely similar. That I should have bought all my RAM when it was cheaper two years ago. I kind of wish that Corsair didn't need to produce variants of RAM with slightly different clock speeds, but I'm not sure this observation helps.

I decided to switch from the Intel systems simply because AMD are better value for money. After ordering the Asus R.O.G X470 Strix Motherboard & thee AMD 2700X CPU, I needed new DDR4 memory. Now which to buy was the question as I read about some modules being more temperamental than others. So I did my research and went onto Asus`s website and got a list of compatible ram that worked with their boards for the Ryzen system. The Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO drew my attention so I ordered it and to cut a long story short, it worked straight out of the box. I just went into the Bios and selected D.O.C.P “Amd`s version of Intels xmp” and it saw the ram and the speed and I selected it and restarted the bios and boom we were off to the races.The speed of the ram I bought was 3000mhz, so I thought I would try to bump it to 3200mhz and that worked straight away. Now the sweet spot for Ryzen system is around 3000-3200mhz so I didn’t see the need to go even further. I am more than happy with that speed.The RGB is a nice touch but as I’m nearly the big five zero now & well, let’s just say I’m kinda to old for that but it’s nice to have if you want it. It’s good with the profile of division 2 though and yes I still play the odd game as I got this game free with the cpu.Now in my case I will give this memory a good solid 10/10 as it purely works when you set it up in the bios as all ram will run at 2133mhz in the bios until you set it up.At the point of writing this review, the Ram cost me £215 for 32gb, a steal compared to this time last year.Hope you enjoy the images included and if you have any questions, I will try to answer them.

Okay, so, it's RAM.Not the most exciting thing in the world, right? But if you don't have any RAM, your computer is not going to, well, work.So you need RAM. Why buy this set? Because it's goooood. And, as the title says, it also looks good!To get it out of the way: This is DDR4 RAM. DDR4 only works with certain motherboards (and hence certain processors which fit those boards) combinations. Check that your motherboard will accept DDR4 before you buy this - you don't want to be trying to hammer the sticks into an incompatible motherboard.Assuming you do have the right hardware, these are a dream to fit. Takes about two minutes to slide each stick in and make sure they're secure in the motherboard slots.That's it, job done. The sticks feel robust, and I managed not to drop either of them into the case as a result.Then you turn your machine on.Immediately, two things are noticeable:First, if you're upgrading from <16GB of RAM, you'll see a performance increase. Well, i did, anyway. Everything felt smoother, and multitasking involved less delays. So functionally, these are as expected - and they've got the quality we've come to expect of Corsair.The second is, they light up! There's some included software for configuring which lights to display and when, if you don't want your PC internals to look like a disco, but it's very pretty, in any event. It apparently synchronises with other lit Corsair hardware, if you're building out a machine.So yeah. It's good. Feels quality, looks nice, and delivers solid performance. If you're buying a new machine, or switching to DDR4 in an upgrade, this is a great choice.

So, I've been using Corsair Vengeance LPX RAM for a couple of years and it has done me very well indeed. 16GB of DDR4 purchased for around £180, which has now dropped down to a bargain £70.Unfortunately for me, during these weird times, I decided to customise my Desktop to the max with all various softwares, mainly the ones from Stardock.Because of this, I was sat at 60% RAM usage on Desktop out of my 16GB, so I decided to upgrade.My lord, the prices are all over the place!16GB of Corsair LPX was £70, 32GB was £140, yet 64GB came to a whopping £750! And these are all at C15 3000Mhz... that's ridiculous!Be careful if you're thinking of upgrading guys!In the end I found this Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro RAM and decided I'd go for it,yes it was £70 or so more expensive than buying 2 lots of 32GB Vengeance LPX, but it has RGB, whereas the LPX doesn't and it was still 50% of the price of buying a set of 64GB LPX.Initially I wasn't sure whether or not it would work on my system, but luckily my system posted fine after placing in one stick, so I then replaced my 2 old sticks of RAM and installed all 4 of these.I've not tried using the XMP profiles yet, so I've got them running native at 2666Mhz, but I'm fine with that as I mainly want the actual memory capacity, rather than the speed.So, I'm very happy with these and can recommend them to anyone who needs the extra RAM.For those wondering:- Gigabyte Aorus 7 Gaming Wi-Fi- Ryzen 7 2700X- Gigabyte RX Vega 64 Gaming-OC

I’ve been updating my PC with an Intel 9900K CPU on an Asus Prime Z390-A motherboard. I wanted some fast RAM to compliment the setup. I settled on two of these Corsair Vengeance RGB modules giving me 16GB of RAM. I went for the 3600 MHz ones as I didn’t want to overclock them.Since popping them into the motherboard, they have worked faultlessly and at the rated speed. They are definitely plug and forget. The only setting up I needed to do was to set the colours I wanted. The LEDs are nice and bright but can be dimmed if needed using the Corsair iCUE software.The software has to be downloaded but it works well. Incidentally, the software will control the motherboard lights as well.A lot of people say that this can’t be done as Asus uses its own Aura software. They’re wrong. You do have to download and install the Aura software but not have to use it. iCUE will then be able to control it all.These memory modules are a little more expensive than some other modules but from experience they are well worth the extra. They have good built-in heatsinks and rarely get passed be a little warm to the touch. As long as there a little breeze flowing around them and you shouldn’t have any problems, even if you want to overclock them.Overall, they are a little pricey but that shouldn’t deter you. They are worth it!

First off, this RAM seems very stable in my Ryzen 3600 based system - good. RGB is also lovely - bright, good colours and I currently have it synched with my Corsair mouse using the iCue software, rather than the MSI Mystic Light - haven't tried that yet but the motherboard RGB ain't great and that's all I have at present!But, my big disappointment is the RAM chips Corsair are now using. Maybe I should have done more research on this beforehand but they have moved from Samsung to Hynix, at least in my sticks anyway. Bummer. I was hoping for some overclocking goodness but I can never seem to get anywhere with the Hynix stuff, even when following the settings in a utility such as the Ryzen RAM Calculator.Got these to 3333 but that's it. I could possibly raise the CAS to up the frequency a bit more but that's bot a great trade-off. I know from past experience that much more can be achieved with Samsung chips and to be honest, that's one of the reasons I went for these. Hey ,ho. Maybe different batches are using different chips? I don't know. But that's my experience with these. It's good, colourful RAM, but I was expecting more from it.

Two sticks of 8GB DDR4 - 3000MHz... With RGB lighting... After removing the existing RAM from my motherboard these slotted straight in with a little fiddling around. It's far easier to add and remove RAM during a build than it is when there are wires and cooling pipes in the way - not to mention the tight squeeze to get at the release clips. On booting I went into the UEFI (i.e. BIOS) to check that all sixteen GB were present and correct. To be honest the first time it was only 8GB - which corresponded with only one module being illuminated. Power off, fiddle more carefully (anti-static strap in place) and boot again.Second time round all was well.The RAM speed setting was set to auto - which equated to 2300MHz (if I recall - it may have been 2000MHz). A quick change in the UEFI to 3000MHz, rebooted and all was well.The lighting is attractive - the photos do not do it justice as the rich colours bleed out due to the light/dark contrast.All in all - excellent RAM which performs (as far as I can tell) exactly as it should - with the bonus of attractive lighting - if you like that kind of thing (and it's really grown on me).

I decided to upgrade my RAM and decided I wanted to get something more high end than the plain looking 2400MHz DDR4 RAM I was using previously. I decided on 2 by 8Gb Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro sticks and settled on 3200MHz as the best value option at the time of buying (with an assumption that the performance improvement with frequency is linear).I don't have benchmarks, so the performance improvement is hard to detect in day to day use, as you can probably imagine. However, the RGB lighting (as ridiculous as the whole RGB thing is getting at this point) is honestly pretty nice and really stands out.My only nitpick is that I also have an Asus Aura supporting motherboard and neither Asus nor Corsair support anything other than the lighting in their own products.This isn't a suprise, but it is a little inconvenient that third party software is required to sync up all the lighting in my setup.These are a great choice from the point of view of performance and aesthetics and have been working great for me. No real complaints.

Would like to say this is my first time in buying high proformance memory etc i normally buy just standered ram but i recently bought a 1070 8 gig card and a ryzen 2700X so i was looking for decent good ram and came across this it was priced really well i ordered it and was delivered well before 1pm came in from work and put both sticks in pc the pc booted up no problem without any issues but then i looked at teh task manger/proformance it kept saying 2400mhz so after figuring it out it was my fault i didn't up date my bios to the latest one and after updating it it finally showed up at 3200mhz the memory runs really really coupled with the 2700X my game look amazing and profourms well plus they light up and change colour really really well (sorry about the poor image quality)know due to my bored only having 2 ram slots theres no way i can buy another set but when i do get another motherbored i will defo be buying another set of theses to match my other 2 i rate them 11/10 amazing profourmance and value.

I don't normally buy RAM for its aesthetic qualities, but this is a real treat if you have a transparent case. Even beyond that, it's well-specced DDR3 from a leading brand, and it does *not* disappoint. Easy to fit and fast-benchmarking, they are a powerful choice for a speedy PC project.The RAM units are sturdily constructed and encased, and feel solid - and safe - to handle. Of course, there's a bit of extra casing to cope with the fancy LED bits and bobs, but that actually gives them a more durable and heavy-duty feel beyond the flashy lights.Talking of those flashy lights, you can access their control settings through the Corsair iCue software, downloadable from the manufacturer's website.*Hours* of endless fun (assuming you haven't sealed them inside a non-transparent case!). A gimmick, I know, but if it's flashy kit you're after, these are bonzer.Definitely a premium treat for your PC project - strength AND looks from a trustworthy brand. What's not to like?

It's been a while since I built my last PC. I expected to plug these in and get the rated 3200Mhz speed with no further effort. However, you actually have to overclock these from the bios settings to get them up to the 3200MHZ mark. These easiest way to do this to enable the XMP profile (pretty easy on a Gigabyte Aorus Master X570 motherboard) . However, for me plating Battlefield 4 and 5 would result in a crash to desktop after a couple of minutes gaming. After researching a few web pages I found that people had this occur when they overclocked their memory - but surely I was just running at the rated XMP speeds? I decided to run memtest86 and sure enough,the memory would fail tests at the settings provided in the XMP profile! I had to tweak the settings, notably increasing the Trc setting from 54 to 56 to get it to run stable. Bit of a pain.Otherwise the RAM looks solidly constructed and the lights look pretty!

I've used Corsair RAM in my last 3 builds and it's always been a good choice. I've just put 32GB of these RGB DDR4 sticks into a new Z390 based build and they're running perfectly fine at 2666MHz.They're taller than I expected so take care if you have a large CPU cooler. I have an m-ATX motherboard with an MSI CORE FROZR cooler and they only fit because they're situated far enough away from the cooler...any closer and they'd be too tall (they overlap the bottom of the Frozr's heatsink/fan by about 2/3mm).The RGB is pretty funky (I've never used RGB RAM before) and can be controlled either by the Corsair software or by your motherboard. The LED strips are fairly large and can be configured with various levels of brightness (and colour combinations,obviously).I'll continue to by Corsair RAM (the DDR3 that I bought for my previous build over 4yrs ago is still going strong), until they give me a reason not to.

The Corsair CMW16GX4M2C3000C15 Vengeance RGB PRO 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 3000MHz C15 XMP 2.0 Enthusiast RGB LED Illuminated Memory Kit - Black Black arrived and I was eager to plug these in a get going. Plugged in update to the BIOS and settings and away the DDR RGB illuminated RAM went. They do look awesome and given the right case the effect is spectacular. Nice to have the RAM power and these can be tweaked and overclocked if wanted, very impressed with the given result. Further tweaks can be obtained in the sequence of the light pattern effects to be isolated or across the board to all the memory modules. The RAM itself performed well in a Game situation and overall well pleased with this very high quality Memory Kit.During the running of games the heat from usage was nicely distributed through the spreaders.This is a high quality product and well worth the money outlay if considering the purchase.

I'm happy with these memory modules and I think they represent good value for money. I like the ability to control the RGB features using Corsairs ICUE software. You can also use your motherboards software.(at least with my motherboard). The modules that I received appear to be Samsung B Die but I could not overclock them to a higher frequency. I'm using a MSI B450 Pro Carbon motherboard and a Ryzen 3800x CPU. I have had to keep them at their stock 3200 mhz rated speed. I have a similar Corsair RGB Pro 2 x 8 GB Kit that uses Hynix modules that I was able to overclock to 3600 mhz. I use Thaiphoon Burner software in addition to DRAM Calculator for Ryzen software to find out the manufacturer of the modules and the timings to use if attemping to overclock memory.At the time I bought the Ram it was very competitively priced on Amazon, this tempted me to go for a 32gb kit.
