Other CL40 · Gray · RGB

  • DDR5 5200 speed accelerates data throughput for demanding workloads
  • CL40 CAS latency keeps response times tight in games and apps
  • Dual-channel 16 GB kit enables higher bandwidth on supported platforms
  • AMD EXPO and Intel XMP 3.0 profiles simplify one-click overclocking
  • Ten-zone RGB lighting adds customisable colour to the build

Optimised DDR5 for AMD and Intel builds

This 16GB dual-channel kit runs at 5200 MT/s with CL40 timings and 1.25V operation. It targets AMD 600 and 800 series platforms plus Intel 600 series boards, suiting Ryzen and Threadripper CPUs equally. Gray heat spreaders and ten-zone RGB lighting complete the package.

AMD EXPO and Intel XMP 3.0 profiles simplify setup

Select the matching profile in BIOS to apply rated speed, timings and voltage without manual entry. CORSAIR iCUE software adds per-zone RGB control and real-time frequency monitoring, while onboard voltage regulation keeps power delivery stable during overclocking.

16GB capacity handles mainstream gaming

Dual 8GB modules give comfortable headroom for current titles and multitasking workloads. Demanding content creation or heavy virtualisation will exhaust the 16GB pool, at which point a higher-capacity kit becomes necessary.

Questions about this item

Will the aluminium heat spreader on the Vengeance RGB modules need any maintenance or replacement?

The integrated aluminium heat spreader is a passive component with no moving parts and requires no scheduled maintenance or replacement under normal use.

What limit appears first when the 16GB kit runs at 5200 MT/s CL40 for extended periods?

The DDR5 5200 specification and CL40 40-40-40-77 timings define the rated performance ceiling; stability at that speed is the first limit encountered under sustained load.

How much heat and power does the 1.25 V dual-channel kit produce when it runs all day?

Operating at the rated 1.25 V, the modules draw only the power needed for DDR5 5200 operation, and the onboard heat spreader dissipates the resulting heat without active cooling.
