Vengeance LPX 16GB DDR4 Kit

This Corsair kit delivers 16GB of DDR4 memory across two 8GB modules rated at 2933 MT/s with CL16 timings. It is built for enthusiasts and builders who want reliable overclocking headroom on mainstream desktop platforms.

Low-Profile Aluminium Heatspreader

Each module uses a pure anodised aluminium heatspreader and a custom performance PCB to move heat away from the ICs. The reduced height clears larger CPU coolers and keeps the DIMM slots accessible in compact builds.

Platform Compatibility Check

The kit is validated for AMD 300, 400 and 500 series chipsets plus X470, X570 and TRX40, as well as Intel 100 through 500 series and X299. Verify that your motherboard supports DDR4 2933 at 1.35V and has two free 288-pin slots before ordering.

Questions about this item

Will the low-profile heatspreader clear my large CPU air cooler?

The LPX modules use a low-profile aluminum heatspreader designed to fit in tighter spaces, improving clearance for oversized CPU coolers compared with standard-height DIMMs.

What BIOS setting do I need to reach the rated 2933 MT/s speed?

Enable the XMP profile in your motherboard BIOS; the kit is programmed with an XMP profile for DDR4-2933 at CL16-18-18-36 and 1.35 V.

Does this kit work with four-slot motherboards?

Yes, the two 8 GB modules populate two slots; the remaining two slots stay free for future upgrades.
