Vengeance RGB 16 GB DDR5 kit

This Corsair Vengeance RGB kit delivers 16 GB of DDR5 memory across two 8 GB modules running at 5200 MT/s with CL40 timings. It targets desktop builders who want a straightforward dual-channel upgrade for Intel 600 and 700 series platforms.

Ten-zone RGB and iCUE profiles

Each module includes a ten-zone RGB light bar that can be configured through Corsair iCUE software. The software also lets you create and save custom Intel XMP 3.0 profiles per application, giving direct control over both lighting and performance profiles.

5200 MT/s headroom and voltage

At 1.25 V the kit operates at its rated 5200 MT/s speed with 40-40-40-77 timings, providing ample bandwidth for mainstream gaming and productivity workloads. Pushing beyond the XMP or EXPO profiles will require manual tuning and may exceed the rated voltage headroom.
