Question about Corsair Vengeance Ram's question
Question about Corsair Vengeance Ram's question
Hello everyone. I purchased a CyberPowerPC, which was the only choice available at that moment. It came with some aftermarket RAM, so I opted to upgrade. I'm currently using dual-channel memory with two 16GB sticks, totaling 32GB via slot 2 and 4. Today I added another pair of 16GB sticks to reach a total of 64GB. The package claims it supports Intel XMP profiles, so the BIOS should automatically enable them. However, I'm still unable to boot—my monitor stays black, nothing initializes, and I need to remove the RAM in slots 1 and 3 to get a boot. Am I missing something? It should work with XMP without any issues. I haven't overclocked anything. All default BIOS settings are applied. The only change I made was setting fans to maximum for better cooling. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Everything is about Corsair revenge, or are you just using a non-branded version?
It's all about Corsair components. They're matching in size and performance. After some research, it seems AMD Ryzen is the issue. Switching to Intel would let me reach the full 3200MHz. I updated the BIOS to 2933 and it's working. Now I'm thinking about getting a motherboard paired with Intel.
You're asking about your specific CPU and motherboard setup. I see you're using a 16GB Corsair Vengeance LPX 3200 on an x570 with a 3700X chipset. It's working fine without any problems. Just keep in mind that the Vengeance RAM is generally budget-friendly, so even if you opt for the premium b-die version, it might not be the top-tier option.
Ryzen stands out as the top choice, offering faster performance. Intel seems to have a decent motherboard, but its quality can be lacking, and the power supplies often fall short in reliability.
