Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB DDR4-3200 CL16 Desktop Memory — Black (CMK16GX4M1E3200C16)

The Corsair Vengeance LPX CMK16GX4M1E3200C16 is built for gamers, home office users, students, and everyday PC builders upgrading or expanding DDR4 desktop memory who want reliable XMP-ready DDR4-3200 performance from a trusted brand at a competitive single-module price. It is well-suited for Intel Core 12th/13th/14th Gen and AMD Ryzen DDR4 desktop builds, single-module 16GB configurations, and as one half of a future 32GB dual-channel pair.

The Vengeance LPX DDR4-3200 16GB module delivers tested DDR4-3200 speed at CL16-20-20-38 timings at 1.35V via XMP 2.0 — a one-click BIOS setting that automatically adjusts to the module's rated speed without manual timing configuration. At SPD default, it runs at DDR4-2133 at 1.2V for immediate compatibility with any DDR4 platform. The anodized aluminium heatspreader pulls heat away from the IC chips efficiently into the system's airflow path for improved thermal stability during sustained operation. The eight-layer custom performance PCB provides superior signal integrity and reduced crosstalk for reliable operation at high frequencies. Each IC is individually screened for peak performance potential, ensuring consistent quality across every module. The low-profile 34mm heatspreader height is compatible with large tower CPU air coolers that would otherwise cause clearance issues with taller RGB memory modules. Broad compatibility has been exhaustively tested across Intel 300, 400, 500, and 600 Series chipsets and AMD 300, 400, 500, and X570 platforms.
