I knew going in that I would probably not be able to run this at the 3600 mhz that it was rated to work at, when I installed it on my setup. I am currently running a Corsair Vengeance computer with an i7 11700 non k cpu, and a MSI Z490-A pro motherboard.
Once installed and set to XMP it gave me the overclock error. I dropped it to 3200 mhz and it booted fine with no problems since. I am running bios E7C751Z1.2CB, or 2.CB is how CPU Z reads it.
It should easily go higher, but I will have to play with the overclock settings and see how high I can get it to work while being stable. This kit is using Nanya chips, at least the sticks I have, which is fine.
Even if it goes no higher, it has been a good upgrade from 16 gb. Things seem to run very smoothly and I have no problems running discord and surfing the web on my second monitor, while gaming on my main one. I have two 27" MSI monitors side by side.
The rgb looks great, and since I have a Corsair Vengeance computer already it just worked right off the bat with my icue software.
I feel much better about having 32 gbs of memory for my future PC games. I also know that, although I have no plans too, in the future if I upgrade or change the motherboard and possibly the cpu, I can still use this memory and it will work fine at its rated speed of 3600 mhz.
I have no cons. Corsair makes great memory and other computer components, and this memory was a great value at this low of a price in the summer of 2023.
