what's the difference ?

Firas64 · Dec 1, 2018

Hey guys
I have decided to buy a new ram and I want to know whats the different between these 3 models :
_ Corsair vengeance RGB Pro 16gb (8*2) DDR4 dram 3200mhz.
_ Corsair vengeance LPX 16gb (8*2) DDR4 DRAM 3200mhz.
_ Team group Vulcan TUF Gaming Alliance 16gb (8*2) DDR4 dram 3200mhz .
I don't care about the RGB I want the best possible performance .

More importantly it's just the brands. Corsair is one of the top brands but not the cheapest. Although Team Group is a brand I've seen used in some of my friends builds I haven't heard complaints. Yes RGB is just a thing but why RAM LoL. All I have is a USB string in my build

Speeds are the same... what are the timings for each kit?

Regardless, you wont notice a difference... memory isnt a bottleneck in most cases. Especially on Intel. If amd ryzen system (please update and list system specs...we have nk idea what system you have.....) it will respond better.

Why are you buying new ram in the first place? What do you currently have???

So.... system specs please!

I can second that to what Earth was referring to. If AMD, RAM can be like a mix bag

just the looks, the more bling bling the more expensive

OK the corsair vengeance pro RGB and the LPX are the same timing 16-18-18-36.
The timing of the team group memory is 16-18-18-38.
My specs :
CPU : i7 7700k.
GPU : sapphire nitro+ RX 580 8gb se.
Ram : corsair vengeance LPX single channel (8*1) 2400mhz.
PSU : corsair RM 650x.
Mobo : Asus strix z270E.
CPU cool : Arctic freezer 360.
Ssd : Samsung 850 evo 500gb .

It's just me but I'd go with Team Group

EarthDog · Dec 1, 2018

I'd go with whatever is cheapest...

Well in my country the corsair vengeance LPX and the team group are the same price.
The corsair pro RGB is a bit expensive.

so take which one that has better aftersales service

Gorstak · Dec 1, 2018

the rgb has lights, the lpx is normal ram, and tuf usually means military quality, highly resistant to possible methane gases in your room

I don't know who is better aftersales service.

Considering that timings and speed are the same i would go for the cheapest one.

Firas64 · Dec 1, 2018

Now wait a minute, looks like the team group memory is not compatible with my motherboard in the QVL list .

I wouldn't even worry here. Rma rates are ridiculously low.

Lets not make this complicated, gentlemen.

for intel... dont sweat it.

Qvl list means they were tested. That doesnt mean they failed. If you had ryzen, I stick to that list.

Buy the cosair and be done with it .

Tatty_Two · Dec 1, 2018

Go for cheapest without a doubt, I have Corsair LPX rated at 3000mhz CL15, I can run them at either 3200 CL15 @ 1.35V 0r 3100 CL14 @ 1.35V, I have also had 2 different Team Group kits on DDR3 and both were excellent.

You could just add another "corsair vengeance LPX single channel (8*1) 2400mhz" Very little benefit from "faster" RAM:

I use Teamgroup myself. It's basically down to personal preference. You won't notice any difference in performance between those kits.

Without the timings, can't make a judgement
