AMD Ryzen processor support

Throughout this review, we have tested on an Intel platform. That's what this kit is designed for, but I just know I'd get the question, will these DIMMs work on AMD Ryzen. Well yeah, dude. 3600 MHz CL16 even. We merely selected the XMP profile but did set the DIMM voltage at 1.4 Volts for utter stability.

Please be sure you install the latest AMD AGESA Firmware update for the motherboard. We tested on the Crosshair VII Hero ASUS motherboard. After inserting two DIMMs the motherboard booted at 2133 MHz. Then in the BIOS enabling XMP/BEMP we selected the 3600 MHz frequency with CL15 timings, at a nice 1T command rate as well. This booted into windows, however, was not stable. Once we increased DIMM voltage from 1.35 towards 1.40 the system was stable with our Ryzen 7 2700X.

3600 MHz CL16-18-18-36 at a 1T Command rate

That 3600 MHz is a proper clock frequency for anything Ryzen alright. That said, that doesn't mean it'll work on any system. If so, I would recommend dropping back to something in the 3466 MHz range as the next best step (which is also really good of course).

Corsair K70 RGB TKL keyboard review
The Corsair K70 RGB TKL comes from a range of keyboards that we already presented here on guru3d. We reviewed the K70 RGB Rapidfire Mk2, which comes also in a low-profile version. So, the first major difference this time is the tenkeyless format. Other than that, this keyboard has not changed much as far as the general concept is concerned. It is, of course, still an RGB mechanical keyboard, but this time it comes in a smaller package.

Corsair K65 RGB Mini keyboard review
The Corsair K65 RGB Mini is a totally different proposition from Corsair. Yes, there were other K65's in the past. Yes, it’s a mechanical keyboard with RGB, but this time it comes in a small package (and I don’t mean the box). What can this baby offer us? Well, there’s plenty.
