Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR4 memory review -
Product Showcase
The heat-spreader is designed to enhance heat dissipation allowing better tweaks and overclocks, albeit does anyone really OC their memory these days? I mean that's what you purchase more expensive XMP memory for right, as the tweaking was done for you already. The Vengeance RGB theme as a result this is not low profile memory though. The idea is that heat is moved away from the actual memory chips and this increases potential overclocking and stability.
Still with this design any cooler in close vicinity of the memory should install just fine. Thanks to that metal bar the memory is very sturdy and can be inserted into the DIMM slots with ease. This memory is also about good looks so I decided to throw in these extra photos as these photo above says it all really.
Corsair may (correct me if I am wrong) be using a PCB with eight layers with a total of two say ounces of copper ? So yes, I have seated this memory on noth a Z270 in dual-channel. X99 is also supported so you can go quad-channel just as well. Above Z270 on an MSI motherboard, that's pretty much how that looks like with four DIMMs. Once you power up the PC the DIMMs jump into a default configuration, an RGB rainbow wave effect is rotating through the primary colors.
Setting up (configuring) this memory is very easy, in the BIOS just flick the XMP 2.0 compatible profile, and you'll be up and running at advertised speeds. The memory itself is optimized for the Intel X99/Z170/Z270 platform with corresponding Skylake/ Kaby lake architecture series processors. Corsair mentioned that they are working on the AMD Ryzen platform support as we speak
The Corsair K70 RGB Pro keyboard is the one we’re reviewing today. It’s not the first one from the K70 series checked on guru3d. Previously those were K70 RGB Rapidfire Mk2, also in a low-profile version, and as a TKL, so overall, there shouldn’t be any significant surprise as far as the general concept goes. Corsair K70 RGB Pro takes some K100 RGB and (most of) K70 RGB TKL CHAMPION (already mentioned) features. The suffix “Pro” wasn’t used yet, so probably it was the right time for that.
