Know before you buy
No, this kit supports Intel XMP 2.0. Once installed, you can simply enable the XMP profile in your motherboard's BIOS to automatically apply the tested speed and latency settings.
While this specific kit is optimized for Intel platforms, it is designed for standard DDR4 slots. It will generally function on AMD systems, though you may need to manually adjust settings in the BIOS if the XMP profile does not automatically load.
You can customize the lighting patterns, colors, and effects using Corsair's iCUE software. This software also allows you to monitor system performance and sync the lighting with other compatible Corsair components.
These modules feature anodized aluminum heat spreaders that add to the overall height of the RAM. Before purchasing, verify that your CPU cooler has enough clearance to accommodate the height of the VENGEANCE RGB modules.
The SPD speed of 2133MHz is the default, baseline speed the RAM runs at upon first installation to ensure system stability. The 3000MHz speed is the rated performance profile that you unlock by enabling XMP in your BIOS.
No, the lighting is powered directly through the motherboard's memory slot. The design is completely wire-free, ensuring a clean look inside your case.
