Hello. If my Rig is compatible with this RAM, would just inserting it be sufficient, or would I have to install some sort of drivers or the like?
can these be used with the black ones because i am planning to use the blue ones along side just to give my computer theme is black and blue
Is it compitable with optiplex 3020 mt processor intel i3 4150 mother board dell inc. model 040ddp
Is this the best memory for overclocking on an Asus P8Z77-V LX Motherboard which supports up to a max of 32G? Price wise, I will not get anything lower than a speed of 1600Mhz...Is this a good bargain, or is it cheaper else where? if so, what site please?

Quality RAM and great price
I recently bought this RAM to upgrade my existing system from 8GB to 16GB in order to run multiple VMs at the same time. I have always had Corsair RAM as it has never let me down and these sticks were no exception. Simply dropped them into the motherboard and rebooted. RAM detected with no problems and working just as I expected - perfect.I had been looking at a RAM upgrade for some time and decided to buy now before prices start to creep back up. That said, getting this RAM for < £60 delivered when all the other major on-line retailers are selling it between £75 and £80 + p&p is an absolute steal.One area to pay attention is the RAM heat sinks as they are quite large and if you have a CPU cooler that overhangs your RAM slots on the motherboard you may have issues getting these sticks to fit. In that case, just look out for the low profile version as they are the same as this but a much smaller height for those who don't have the luxury of space around their RAM slots on their motherboard.Usual great service from Amazon as well - Thanks

Corsair Vengeance
This is fantastic value memory - great performance for any new build, particularly Haswell processors.,This memory is good on both Windows and Hackintosh set ups. One thing to watch out for are the high heat spreaders that can interfere with large processor coolers - if in doubt go for low profile RAM.

Not Just for Gamers!
I wanted to upgrade my PC as the motherboard and processor were about 5 years old.I spent three months on and off checking up on motherboards, memory, cpu's, and cpu fans.I found a motherboard capable of 32 Gb of ram, although I did not want that much right away.I also found the Corsair CMZ16GX3M2A1600C10 Vengenace 16GB 1600MHz CL10 DDR3 Memory Two Module Kit.Although I had never used Corsair before, the many write ups that I read said they were good.The two module 16GB was also perfect as it used only two of the four memory slots on the MB. This will allow me to get a second identical kit later when I am ready to upgrade and increase the Ram.The PC is running extremely well, and I no longer have to click and wait for something to happen. Now it is click and the next page, program, or whatever I am doing is there. I am not a gamer. I use the PC to manage an online company, run support and write not only articles but websites using code not page makers, and the memory combined with the processor( an i7) and motherboard make a fantastic difference to production.So this memory is not just for gamers it is great for all users of PCs.

Trusted brand RAM
Simple to install, literally plug and play. Aesthetically pleasing. Only bad point is they are quite tall so its worth measuring the space in your rig to make sure you have the space to fit them especially if you have a large cpu cooler or a mini case. Corsair do actually sell a low profile version of this set if your struggling for space which dont have the heat exchange fins on the top of the units. In my opinion you really dont need the fins anyway, ram sticks just dont heat up enough to warrent the huge attached fins so I can only guess they are added for looks.

Boom Ram disk anyone.
Total extravagance on my part to by this set of memory, have added it to another 16 gb kit.Looks great on the Asus Maximus V Gene.As l have an Antec 920 no clearance issue with cooling the CPU.Running the ram at stock.No more disk caching for me :)1024 - 1024 disk page file on the only mech HDD just in case.Paired this with 2x256 Crucial SSD's (1xmSata M4 + 1x2.5" M4).System fast and responsive no matter what l am doing.

Great Ram when it works
Good RAM when it works....both sticks failed oddly at the same time within the 2 years guarantee so returned it ...a simple process that Amazon decided to overcomplicate and 'lose' the return.

Before you make the purchase, review your motherboard specifications to ensure that this particular RAM is supported. If it will be ADDITIONAL to existing RAM, then ALL the RAM used must be the same technical specification (not necessarily the same brand of manufacture). I am using this RAM on two desktop PC's, and am well satisfied with my choice. When installing, keep your PC's PC cord plugged in to a 3-prong well grounded outlet, and the PS on/off switch turned OFF (this grounds your PC box and all content). Insert the RAM with great card, as it fits very tight. Support the BACK of your motherboard in that general area, else risk cracking the motherboard. Push back the motherboard locking clips, then carefully slide one end of the RAM fully into the slot, followed by carefully guiding the rest of the RAM so that it fills the slot. Then, when you push down on one end of the RAM you should hear a CLICK, and note that the locking clip has locked in that end of the RAM. Repeat for the other end of the RAM. Ensure that the RAM's guiding 'slot' correctly lines up. If you experience trouble getting the RAM into the slot on any given attempt, back off and retry - carefully. In extreme circumstances, you may have to remove the motherboard in order to get the ram installed without causing damage. If you have never done this before, find someone who has. I have 32GB of this RAM installed on each PC, and in each case it took me around 20 minutes to accomplish - and I have 35+ years experience! Enjoy your new RAM."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"can these be used with the black ones because i am planning to use the blue ones along side just to give my computer theme is black and blue","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Yes you can it's the same ram just blue"}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Is it compitable with optiplex 3020 mt processor intel i3 4150 mother board dell inc. model 040ddp","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"In order to find out if compatible, you need to research your PCs specs (intel i3 4150 mobo), online and find its requirements on memory, that's all you have to do.
