Question 1

The picture shows that this comes with the Vengeance cooler fan. Does it? It's not listed in the description, nor does it feature in pictures on other websites.

Accepted Answer

Look closely under the color choice in the information screen where it says "Fan Included:". When you select the specific package of that RAM from above that, it will indicate if the fan is included or not. I ordered the 2x16 which does NOT include the fan. The fan is only included with the 4 DIMM packages. Showing the picture of the fan with the 2 DIMM packages is VERY misleading if you don't notice that Fan Included notation. When I ordered the RAM I too thought it came with the fan, but when it did not, I went back and looked closer. That's when I noticed the "Fan Included" part. Hope that helps.

Question 2

I currently have this RAM in my computer on an AMD motherboard CORSAIR Vengeance 16GB (4 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800). Will this be able to run on it also?

Accepted Answer

The first red flag is that the memory you are considering has more pins than your current memory. The new memory is 288 pin while your current memory is 240 pin. The first thing you need to do is get the model number of your motherboard and put it into a google search. Go to the result that is the motherboard manufacturer's website and see if your motherboard supports DDR4 memory. If it only supports DDR3, then this memory is not compatible with your motherboard and you will have to instead consider only 240 pin DDR3 memory. Also be sure that your motherboard supports 32GB or more before you decide how much memory to purchase. If you buy more memory than your motherboard can hold, then the excess memory will either be unusable or, more likely, the memory will not work at all. Another thing to look at is the speed of the memory, but this is generally not as important. If you purchase memory that is too fast, the worst thing that usually happens is that the memory will still work, but the speed will be reduced to the maximum speed that your motherboard supports. Your old memory is 1600 MHz. The memory you're considering is 3200 MHz. If you were to purchase memory that is 3200 MHz and your motherboard only supports 1600 MHz, then the purchased memory would likely still work, but it would only run at 1600 MHz. The reason I mention this is that often times it's less costly to purchase the same speed of memory that your motherboard supports rather than to purchase faster memory that will actually run at the same speed as the slower memory. Sorry, finding the correct memory takes time, but I think Corsair's website has a list of compatible memory for many motherboards. You can also check for that if you have problems.

Question 3

If i bought 2 of these sets will they work perfectly? Even though they didnt come all together? I'd like to have 64 GB total but if they are the exact same speed and GB there shouldnt be any issues correct?

Accepted Answer

Yes, as long as your mainboard supports 64 GB and DDR4 3200.  I did this with a Gigabyte Z170-HD3P mainboard and it works very well in XMP 2.0 mode at full speed.

Question 4

Just wondering it states that this is optimized for Intel Motherboards but will this work on an ASUS Crosshair V Formula AM3+ AMD 990FX board?

Accepted Answer

I would say no. Your motherboard supports DDR3 memory, but there's no mention of DDR4 on your motherboard's product page.

Question 5

I have 2 X 8 gb of this memory installed, can I add 2 x 16 gb same type to the remaining open slots ? B 450-F Asus MB

Accepted Answer

The answer should be in the motherboard manual or at the ASUS website.  Look for the Memory-QVL list.  There should be instructions on what is allowed and what is not.

I normally install 2 x 16 GB matching SDRAM in slots A2 and B2 for 32 GB total in my builds.

Good luck.

Question 6

Are these compatible with intel Z270 cpu or is it Z170 only?

Accepted Answer

You need to see if the motherboard is compatible, not the CPU (processor). Just make sure your motherboard accepts DDR4 memory and you should be fine.

Question 7

Does this ram work ASUS Z170-C?  I don't see it listed.

Accepted Answer

There's no guarantees that it will work. I would say that if the motherboard supports XMP speeds of 3200 MHZ, it SHOULD work but may not. With the three motherboards I've used this in, it will most likely work at reduced speeds (3000 MHZ, for example) or without XMP enabled at 2166 MHZ.

Question 8

which version number is this? My mobo is very specific

Accepted Answer

The version number for this product is CMK32GX4M2B3200C16.

Question 9

Will this work in a Dell Precision 7820 with i9 processor?

Accepted Answer

The CORSAIR Vengeance LPX 32GB DDR4 RAM is optimized and compatibility tested for the latest Intel X99 and 100 Series motherboards. Specific compatibility with a Dell Precision 7820 is not mentioned.

Question 10

compatible with B 450 F Gaming mobo?

Accepted Answer

I assume you're referencing the ROG Strix B450-F? Yes it is compatible.
