Vengeance PRO RGB Review - 3200MHz CL16 iCUE DDR4 Memory GOODNESS

2018-07-24
a few days ago I got a phone call and the person wanted to buy a PC more pacifically they wanted to buy a PC with RGB lighting if it didn't have RGB they weren't gonna buy it so of course I have fulfilled the request and salt the PC though it had simple ddr3 memory in it and now here's the thing at that time I'm pretty sure that person did not know that ddr4 Corsair Vengeance per memory existed had they had no one I don't think I would have got that sale because this is why welcome back to check your city and I got sent over a review kit of 16 gigabytes of vengeance per a GB memory this is to buy a gigabyte sticks and the good news is straight away this has thirty-two hundred megahertz XMP profiles with CL 16-time is at one point three five volt and why that's a good thing is because this means that it has Samsung BG memory great for overclocking and also great for AMD rise and platform users so I was able to get this stuff up to thirty six hundred megahertz on a be 350 motherboard and also I was able to get it up to thirty six hundred megahertz where CL nineteen timings as well on an Intel motherboards so there was no difference in terms of imax overclocks on different platforms and the IQ software works tremendously well you can change the lighting effects on this RGB memory to match your build there's a lot of different effects that you can go through and also you can change the speed and even link it to your other individual items in the whole profile however one thing I will state is that I tried an x4 70 motherboard and also a be 350 motherboard and the IQ software still needs to be updated to support those platforms as it did work flawlessly on the z3 70 and the 8th gen 8700 K that's if you want to extract the lighting effects and you want to match it all up and make it work properly at the moment I'm sure they will update that in the future but we're looking at pricing here it's two hundred nine US dollars for the 32 hundred megahertz 16 gigabyte kid if you're in Australia 349 AUD and for this price it's really that trade-off of do you want the memory with the extra bling because I think this is the best ddr4 memory that I've seen to date I've got the Trident Z here as well and that looks really good but with the Corsair Vengeance Pro you can control the lighting effects as well as having what I thought was a bit stronger a glow compared to the transi and also pulling out my thermal imaging camera to test temperatures at the 3200 mega nodes XMP profiles show that the heat sinks aren't just for bling either they actually do perform quite well reaching a maximum of 38 degrees Celsius under a stress test whilst in a 23 degree ambient environment comparing this to the Trident Z was scoring in the similar ballpark so the heat sinks aren't just for aesthetics they're also for formitz as well another thing about the Vengeance Pro is you can also get up to 4000 megahertz XMP profiles however generally the higher the XMP profile the more expensive the memory and comparing it against the previous generation vengeance RGB which is the non pro you can't control the led effects on that but you do get the light spreaders which diffuse light and they are non-transferable to the vengeance Pro they won't fit but you can get that with XMP profiles up to 40 to 66 megahertz - and in conclusion to quickly wrap this up the RGB vengeance per memory it does perform really well it does have the bling and it does have the control via the software however it is a little bit expensive even compared to the previous non pro RGB memory so all the extra features worth that premium that is the question I will say seeing this stuff in the flesh and also seeing it at Computex I was very impressed it is pretty much the gold standard for RGB memory in 2018 and if you guys enjoyed this video then be sure to hit that like button let me know in the comments section below what you think of this ddr4 memory and I'll get back to you as soon as I can catch you on the next tech video very soon peace out for now they and we are now at this desk here and i've got some roasted nut almond bars that i'm going to be giving away to one lucky person in the audience I mean I haven't done a not joke in a while not so actually behind that we are giving away a 16 gigabyte kit of Vengeance Pro memory all you have to do to enter is click on the link in the description below completely free international giveaway to a gigabyte sticks of this stuff thirty two hundred megahertz XMP profiles get a chance to win and I'll catch you guys in another tech video very soon repeat myself again he's out for now bye
