  I upgraded from 2 x 8GB 2666Mhz CL16 to these after 7 years. The requirements of Windows 11, games, and especially the programs I use daily (VS Code, IntelliJ IDEA, Pycharm, and about 10 other background applications) led me to these gems.

  They worked right away on a brand new Asus Rog Strix B550-F Gaming WIFI II when I installed them and changed the profile from Default to D.O.C.P: #1 Profile through the BIOS, as indicated on the memory sticks, to 3600Mhz 16-20-20-35.

  As you can see in the photos below, they are beautiful, affordable (compared to the equivalent GSkill ones at 115-120 euros), and reliable. They passed a 40-minute test from memtest86+ (https://memtest.org/). In the coming months, I will report some statistics on 2-3 games for those interested in gaming performance.

  I hope the Corsair application (iCUE v.5) doesn't start self-destructing like it did with the company's fans (3 x Corsair QL120 at 100 euros) in the past. For now, I set a couple of colors and won't touch it for a while; I've been afraid of it for the past year.

  I will provide updates on any new developments.

  Value for money memories AND good performance + beautiful RGB.
  They worked right away on XMP on Asus Prime B550 Plus with Ryzen 5700X.

  I bought them at the end of November for 134 euros, now I see they have dropped even more.

  Let's talk about performance: Out of the box, they are already good, 3600 tCL 16, but the tRCD is a bit high.
  Their timings "indicate" that they are Micron.
  And indeed, the sticker on the memory said "Rev 3.31", which for Corsair means Micron.
  Specifically, I was lucky and got Micron Rev. E 8Gb, 2-rank configuration, which is great, well-known and tested for overclocking on Ryzen with good results and at a reasonable price.

  As I mentioned before, I was lucky because in this "Rev" code, Corsair uses both Micron Rev. E IC and Micron Rev. B IC. So it's a bit of a lottery what you will get.

  And indeed, they work just fine, behaving like a "typical" Micron Rev. E, with their strengths and weaknesses.

  If you want something more, and if you have the budget, go for a kit with guaranteed Samsung B-die. Although in my opinion, B-Die is not worth its price, it's better to spend your money elsewhere, for example, on a better graphics card.

  Amazing memories!! 3600mhz with 16CL!! It's hard to find such a kit. They worked immediately at the recommended speeds on ASUS ROG STRIX B550 f gaming by enabling XMP. For someone interested in kits at these speeds and with RGB (we all know that RGB gives extra fps ?), I highly recommend them 100/100!
