About this deal

The memory kit has one XMP profile at DDR5-6200 CL36-39-39 1.30V and doesn't require any manual adjustments to work. The memory kit passed memtest built-in ASUS motherboard and AIDA64 stability test. Below is a screenshot from the AIDA64 test. Powerful CORSAIR iCUE Software: Enables real-time frequency readings, onboard voltage regulation, and custom XMP profiles.

I assume that results could be better but I feel like the ASUS Strix Z690-I Gaming motherboard is limiting my results a bit. Up to DDR5-6666, it works fully stable. At DDR5-6800 are sometimes single errors in memtest (like 0-2 errors per pass). The same story is with 2 other DDR5 kits so I assume that the problem is more on the motherboard's side than RAM. The tested memory kit is based on two 16GB modules with Hynix IC. The product number is CMT32GX5M2X6200C36 but I haven't seen it on any QVL. Most Z690/DDR5 motherboards have many pre-release memory kits on the list and most of them, even with the same product number, are using different IC. Either way, let's focus on the Corsair kit. Hand-Sorted, Tightly-Screened Memory Chips: Ensure consistent high-frequency performance with aggressive timing options. Do it All, and Do it Faster: As modern CPUs feature more and more cores, the unprecedented speed of DDR5 ensures your high-end I highly doubt that your CPU causes the problem. I've tested multiple 12600K and 12900K and all were about the same, and all that I had, could run at 7200 stable on a single slot. Sadly, my motherboards are limited to 6400-6800 on 2 slots.

Product Reviews

the mother i bought, the X670E TUF WIFI plus, it will come to my home between tomorrow or the next days in the week. In this forum review, I used FarCry 6 as a game test. The last time it was Shadow of the Tomb Raider. In both cases, the difference between XMP and the fastest manual settings is ... 1FPS

Besides, i got these rams for a very good price, and it was the only kit available, the other pc stores that sells these kits or similar cost way more. Without EXPO support on the memory it's tough to say what it will be capable of. That specific memory is very likely using Samsung memory dies, which at the current moment are considered of lower performance than the possibly currently best option for AMD which is SK Hynix M die memory. I have built over 25 computers for myself in my life. This is my son's first build and he has come to me for help. I have spent two weeks trying to figure it out and now come to this forum looking for suggestions. This same number in units of MHz is called the "effective frequency." The effective frequency is the base frequency times two because it is double data rate (DDR) RAM. High compatibility also seems like a surprise as many previous Corsair kits had problems with Gigabyte motherboards while now it works better than G.Skill.As usual, fine-tuning would require more time so these are just examples of how you can set this specific memory kit.

Gigabyte failed every BIOS for Z690 regarding DDR5-6000+ support. The same problems are on other, higher series Gigabyte motherboards like the Master. Considering that Z690 Master already had at least 8 BIOS versions (probably more) that were supposed to fix DDR5 6000-6400 compatibility issues and it still doesn't work, suggests that their BIOS team has no idea what is doing or they simply can't make anything as the hardware has its limitations.This was probably the first support "firewall" where are usually clueless people who tell you what they have in the product specs. Go to the last column at the end of the row to Exit and Save your settings. It should reboot automatically. We have tested and confirmed all parts as working, motherboard, memory, SSD, PSU, etc. This is frustrating as since each part works, no one is willing to help as their particular part functions. For example, DDR5-5600 has a data rate of 5600 MT/s, an effective frequency of 5600 MHz, and a base frequency of 2800 MHz.
