Corsair Vengeance LPX - 16 GB 1 x 16 GB DDR4 2400 MHz memory module
originally posted on neweggbusiness.com
Over the years, I've used Corsair memory sticks in builds without any issues. You get reasonable performance for a very reasonable price compared to others on the market.For a new ASRock x570 Taichi utilizing an AMD RYZEN 7 3700X build (mid-2020) I purchased a set of Vengeance LPX DDR4 288-pin 3200 8GB and everything seemed to work great with my build. However, when I purchased and installed an upgrade 16GB (2x8GB) Vengeance LPX DDR4 3200 set for a decent price on NewEgg, things began to slowly become unstable over a period of time and I chased my tail trying to diagnose the cause of the instabilities. Issues pointed to SSD and graphics errors but disk checks, BIOS upgrades and graphic card driver updates showed no issues with these components nor improved system ... MoreOver the years, I've used Corsair memory sticks in builds without any issues.

Issues pointed to SSD and graphics errors but disk checks, BIOS upgrades and graphic card driver updates showed no issues with these components nor improved system stability and errors.Eventually, the errors became regular enough where I finally saw clues they were pointing to the new memory. It turns out that 1 of the 2 upgrade sticks had many, MANY faults, but not enough initially to be DOA and it worked fine enough to be "usable" until it wasn't. However, the memory had just enough issues to cause system errors over a period of months but not enough to say, "It's me!" The issues eventually became periodic and consistent enough to force Memory_Management BSODs and the gig, as they say, was up.After the issues became recognizable as memory related, after the months of unexplained and inconsistent instability, diagnosing the bad stick between the two upgrade sticks (pull one - MemTest, replace with the other - MemTest) showed me which was the bad stick in the pair, and then it was obvious and 20-20 hindsight said "Uh, duh!" I pulled those out of my build and reinstalled the original two LPXs, stability returned and no more issues. For peace of mind, MemTesting the original pair showed no errors. Since I purchased the upgraded pair less than a year ago (9 months) it falls outside the return period to NewEgg so I'm stuck with a single usable memory stick while the other is unusable. The two "original" LPX sticks carry on like champs, but at 1/2 the wanted capacity.If I upgrade for more memory again, I may think twice about Corsair since 1 out of 4 had faults.

Just what I need for my home lab. I got 2 packages totaling the max 128GB for my atx motherboard. I don't need anything really fast nor any rgb for my uses. I have used Vengeance in all my builds. They are everything I need and nothing I don't need. It is hard to find memory without "pretty sparkly dizzying colors" and that don't have heat spreaders that prevent a normal sized cpu cooler from being installed. I have 4 dimm slots on my home lab limiting me from adding anymore to this build. I also but a 3rd pkg for my everyday/gaming pc in dual channel. Unfortunately I reached my limit on memory upgrades on the systems I have now. and if I was to do a build for a friend or family member, I am sure they would prefer the "pretty" rgb. So my next personal build I am ... MoreJust what I need for my home lab. I got 2 packages totaling the max 128GB for my atx motherboard. I don't need anything really fast nor any rgb for my uses.

So my next personal build I am sure will be for a board only supporting DDR5. But I would recommend these sticks to anyone I find that has the same priorities for a system build as I do.

Took some tweaking to work with my Dell Desktop. After reaching out to Dell support, they told me this would not work with my XPS 8940 even though it's the same RAM in the machine. Typical Dell just trying to get you to overpay for their products. Corsair support recommended taking the Dell RAM out and just using the Corsair RAM. I found a review on Amazon that mentioned a similar situation with a potential solution. First remove the Dell RAM, place the Corsair RAM in the same slots as the Dell RAM, boot the machine, turn it off. Now add the Dell RAM back into the remaining two slots, the machine will turn on but you will have a black screen then it will turn back off by itself. Turn on the machine and there will be a message "memory has changed" press continue and ... MoreTook some tweaking to work with my Dell Desktop.

No problems here. Does what it says, had to manually specify the RAM clock speed to what the box says but whatever. Could be the RAM, could be the motherboard. Could even be the CPU. The RAM works. I didn't think to check what IC's were used in mine before I installed; it's either Micron, Samsung and Hynix. Normally I would get Micron but I was in a hurry. The RAM works well enough that I'm not bothering to open up the computer and look at the version sticker to find out, not worth the effort.I'm not overclocking this or whatever the kids are into these days. If I wanted faster I'd have spent the money for faster. Paired this with an MSI B550 and Ryzen 5 5600X.
I have never been let down by a stick or a matched pair of Corsair LPX ram. I've been using the LPX series for as long as they have been available. They are low profile as the name implies and lets me use oversized air coolers in my builds. Currently have 4 of these sitting underneath my NH-D-15 Chromax black from Noctua.I am not a hardcode fella, that worries about CAS latency and timings ,I just needed something with the max frequency my board could handle and 32gb of it for games like Star citizen. Love these.Always affordable!
This company has always made great products.The memory is no different.I needed these for a friend's HP slimline desktop. I was only worried about clearance the banks are directly under the HD and DVD gauge they fit with about 1/16" space.Compatibly I already checked there site and HP but HP said up to 16 gigs but I checked the memory manufacturer site and others and off of them said it would take 32 gigs max.The BIOS and the OS showed the full 32 gigs.At the same time I installed a 1TB ssd it obviously woke the PC right up and runs like it should have from the factory.
I noticed a really huge Difference in gaming. memory is usually where the bottleneck occurs. i went from 16gigs to 32 gigs . and this is of coarse up to date sticks , to its bigger better and faster. now my VR is smooth and other games are also good to go. i wish i had gotten this sooner. i didnt realize this was all i needed. if you have a good Card and good CPU but cant figure out why things are not as smooth as you might like. consider that you might not have optimal memory.. and remember you have to stagger your slots. so put them in slots 1 AND 3 OR 2 AND 4.

Would recommend 5 out of 5, just like Corsair Vengeance PRO 5/5 would recommend. Good stable benchmarks while running games at max graphics capacity 1440p 2K just excels beyond compare of most other Manufacturers especially at CL 16 or 18 Latency settings. While XMP is enabled on the motherboard, after overclocking settings have been carefully set and checked twice, this RAM hasn't given me a lag or ripple on (3440 x 1440 pixels UWQHD 34" 170hz, AMD adaptive sync premium supported, gaming monitor) since I installed it in my gaming rig at least 6 months ago. Running it at 144hz on the display port. Pretty fast and smooth setup and memory processing by this RAM is very hard to compare to let alone beat in all categories including performance all the way to price point target range options that are competitively and closely priced and exceed most all other performance-DDR4 frequency range compatible, competitor's comparisons on the market today.
Good Points: Has heat spredaers , small form factor heps for fitting decent air coolers.Had reliable past experiences with same model of corsair ram kits in past.Improvement Points: I prefer tight timings for ram. What I never realised is that the timing specified are for a slower speed ram verified at a OC setting .Maening timings are looser than I would like. I have no OC head room to play with so to ensure no WHEA errors I have left timings as set for an XMP over clocking profile. They do the job at such a setting but I feel I could get a little less latency iof the unoverclocked rating was at 3600 MTS rather than the 2800 MTS they are specified as stock . So IMHO a slight mismarketing though it does run as advertised those with less knowledge may OC or ... MoreGood Points: Has heat spredaers , small form factor heps for fitting decent air coolers.Had reliable past experiences with same model of corsair ram kits in past.Improvement Points: I prefer tight timings for ram.

I purchased these to replace four 8GB sticks rated for 3600 MHz that were not stable at 2666 MHz. Some reduction in speed is necessary when populating all four slots, but I was losing too much performance with this setup. Thankfully, these two sticks have been perfectly reliable so far at 3600 MHz.The motherboard is an ROG Strix B550 Gaming-F WiFi II. CPU is a 5800X3D. The ROG manual says to put two sticks in slots 2 and 4, and this was indeed the setup that worked. XMP would not operate when the sticks were in slots 1 and 3. So if you're having issues, the solution may be in your documentation.
