Thank you so much for this! I just got the RGB RT for my Ryzen build and I was so confused as to why I never really saw much people use it in their builds, it was always the RGB Pro SL
Dude you're a lifesaver. I was getting annoyed at how confusing these various corsair RAMs are. Unique approach, relevant and comprehensive comparisons. Solved my problem! Subscribed!
This is like a year late, but one important difference to note is that the RS memory only has 6 LEDs per stick, whereas the RT has 10. The SL should also have 10, though the number isn't specified on Corsair's website. Great video though, super informative!
It's never too late!! Corsair updated there website like right after I posted this video specifying their LEDs! When looking at both it was hard for me to notice but I bet it's noticeable once you start individually adjusting the colors instead of me seeing the default rainbow side by side. I pinned your comment so hope that helps other viewers! Thanks for looking out just a dude!😎
Just wanted to point out a few differences between the RT and the RS in case they were missed. AMD is more picky when it comes to memory. Therefore while the RS is only optimised for Intel, The RT though optimised for AMD works better with Intel than the RS. RT is the only model that has a CAS 16 option on 3600mhz modules. RT also has more LEDs than the RS, 10 instead of 6 I think. Therefore, AMD or Intel, RT is the better choice if the slightly higher price is no issue.
Thank you for your findings! I have pinned your comment to help other viewers. Were you able to find an article or information about the LED difference?
@@AprilMayRain I replied to your comment with links from the manufacturer's website confirming the number of LEDs. Don't know what happened to it 😕. For RT, it mentions 10 zone lighting" and for RS it says "6 addressable RGB LEDs".

1:26 Oh my god the RGB sync tip is so useful! One of the most dreadful thing for me is how to control the RGB, what all software to use when you're using different brands. Actually would love a video on that - how to sync your case fans, separate fans, graphics card, ram - what all cables, controllers, and software you'll need.
Hi MultiSciGeek! I have a few videos trying different lighting softwares but nothing that goes through all components to one software. That video would be super fun to make tho and I think the best way for me to make it interesting would be to take a friends or a used PC with all different RGB components and get them all to work with one software for them lol
Super informative video! I’ve been doing so much research on PC building lately and have been refining my plans for my eventual first build (as soon as RTX 3000 series prices get to MSRP, LOL). I’m becoming more and more of a fan of RGB PC components, and you did a great job explaining these RGB RAM sticks in particular. I’m probably gonna go with the SL just because I think it looks the best. 😂 Thanks for the content!
It's finally here! This is one of my most viewer requested videos ever! I face off Corsair's newest DDR4 memory kits in performance, physical design and RGB. Hope you enjoy!🍿
Just a quick note from reading online articles, the RT (AMD Optimized) apparently has 10 LEDs on the top while the RS only has 6. From the video though it really seems like there is no difference.
DUDEEEE I REMEMBER I WATCHED YOU A LONG TIME AGO AND I USED TO COMMENT TOO. I even joined your clash of clans and clash royale clans. I just wanted to see how you were doing and I’m glad to see that you’re doing well. I was in middle school when I first watched you and now I’m 19 so it’s been so long.

One thing that you may want to do in the future is to include the "SPD" tab from CPU-Z which will show if the ram is "single rank" or "dual rank". Dual rank ram will perform better in gaming than single rank ram as far as fps goes, assuming that the timings and speed are the same. Overall a great video, thanks for the content..
Yeah I don’t understand that about the RT either. Even in their specs it shows it is Intel compatible. It’s definitely AMD focused but I don’t get why they say it’s not compatible when they also say it is but not optimized lol
It's very confusing!! Corsair changes their marketing a lot so they might clear this up in the near future. It's strange to me that the AMD optimized option would be more expensive compared to Intels. Like all Intel compatible products have been know to have higher prices so why not make the optimized intel kit more expensive over the AMD lol
@@AprilMayRain honestly it’s all just marketing bullshit. Get a b-die ram and it will do anything you want. Those profiles are pretty much all the same. Yeah it makes things easier for some people but it’s really not that hard to do better optimization than those profiles unless they are a terrible bin
You absolutely rock April May Rain!! I just built my first PC & been struggling for the past couple days trying to figure out the differences and what to get especially since I’m so indecisive and you’ve saved me time, energy, and given me the answers that I need!! Thank you so much!!
Before switching to AMD I was running i7-9700k, Z390 with Corsair RGB RT Ram and ran with no issues. I’m just as confused as you, not sure what they said the RBG RT isn’t COMPATIBLE with Intel instead of saying OPTIMIZED. Their wording must’ve been off. 13:05
Hello, I have a z490 and I'm thinking of switching to a z690. Can you tell me which is better to buy RT or RS? The budget is not limited. I myself tend to RT more. And is there a difference between 2x16gb and 4x8gb?
Hey Ploudy! The RT is a good choice but if budget isn't a problem, DDR5 is what I would look into for your z690 (ddr5 will not work on your z490). For the kit configuration (like 2x16), the first number (2) is how many sticks and the second number (16) is the gb capacity. If you plan on upgrading to 64gb in the future, I would go with the 2x16. You can add another kit to go to 64gb where the 4x8 you will have no more available slots in a standard 4 DIMM slotted motherboard. He's a link to Corsair Vengeance DDR5 that I recommend. I plan on making DDR5 content soon so stay tuned! Let me know if you have any more questions! Stay awesome Ploudy! amzn.to/3R0Th6A
@@AprilMayRain Thanks for the answer) I wanted to buy Z690 on ddr4 version. and I thought to buy it along with this RAM. I don't know if it's worth overpaying for ddr5. Is there a big difference between ddr4 and ddr5?
You said you used an intel system to test the RT but there is a AMD test bench described at 11:38. Is that test bench not being used with the RT? Thank you for the video as well, very professional!
Thank you so much for watching and thank you so much for the compliment! The 2 PC were both going to be used if I had any issues running the RT with the intel or the RS with the AMD. The results I got when comparing the 3 kits on AMD with one of the tests were almost exactly the same compared to the Intel (in percentages). I could have then compared Intel to AMD but seemed redundant with already a long video. You are right tho, I should have compared both systems with all tests or at leased mentioned it more.

I have a Meshify 2 case and I have the vengeance pro memory in them. I am thinking about doing my very first custom loop next year with my 5600x. Only thing is that the clearance from my vengeance pro will likely interfere with the rad. So I am interested in the sl or rt 7mm can make a difference it seems. .
Hi, could you help me with this? So I'm building an Ryzen set up and wanted some white looking rams and found out that the SL model has a variant that is almost completely white while the RT (which is suposed to be optimized for Ryzen) does not, it just has a white triangle shape in it, but the frencuencies and all other aspects are the same. Would it be really worth it to buy the SL (due to its completely white design) eventhough is not optimized for Ryzen? or does it really make a difference to have Ram optimezed for your cpu? As in the RT version. Thanks and keep up the good job.
i mean it works hella fine even if it does not have optimisations for a certain cpu. Look at those optimisations like a buff, but, yeah, it works fine without any drop of fps compared to the other one. The real difference is the cpu frequence. At least get a 3000+
Hey Okabe! In your situation, the white SL would be the way to go. You would get more benefit out of a beautiful white designed kit of ram in your PC than a non-all-white kit even with the small bump of performance. You could go with the RT but I feel like if you're vibing with a white look which I don't think the RT will satisfy. Amazon is also awesome so you could order both and return the kit you want. Hope that helps Okabe and feel free to ask anymore questions!
Great Video! Im currently looking for 2x16gb DDR4 3600mhz cl16 ram to upgrade my pc and noticed the huge price difference between de RGB RT, RGB Pro SL and the Trident Z rgb. While the RGB RT only costs 130€ the Trident Z costs 180€ and the RGB Pro SL from Corsair more than 200€! I honestly dont understand why the Price Differenc is so huge. Do you have an idea? And could you recommend any other RGB Ram besides the Corsair and Trident Z ones?
Thanks for watching Granat! Yeah the market has been up and down recently for RAM prices. You can't go wrong with either of them but that RT price isn't bad! It was the most expensive option in the US when I made this video. Other RGB RAMs that I have tried I didn't like the software to control it. I has been awhile so maybe that has changed.
RT version can be considered for intel use ?specially for lga1700 ddr4 it has more frequencies variances . since ddr5 bit high when it comes with pricing .
12:00 Correction. RGB configuration is NOT the same in RT and RS. RS has only 6 individually addressable LEDs where the RT has 10 individually addressable LEDs. So the RT's RGB animation flow is way smoother than the RS. Corsair Vengeance RGB RT FTW 😋
Yes! When I made this video, Corsair did not have any RGB information posted but now they do. I have pinned your comment Ravindu so hope it helps other viewers😊😊
@@AprilMayRain Thank you for your kind response. I have a Zenith II Extreme Alpha. The corsair dominator platinum 128 gb is compatible with this MB too, right? :D
I have older Corsair Ven RGB Ram 3000Mhz 2x8GB (16GB) I have Z390 Gigabtye Aorus Pro Motherboard with Intel 7-8700K with RTX 2080 I want to do soft upgrade to 32GB Ram. What would reccomend for my specs? Thanks
just received 2x 64 gb kits of RS 3600. didnt see any notification of amd or intel optimization in the ad i purchased it from newegg on. but it should work just fine with my 5950x system. ran corsair ram for the last 20 years or so and have only had issues on one kit awhile back that came mismatched from the factory but was fixed by corsair quickly
I see how you can see that! At a close distance, it kind of has that "frozen" effect but it's subtle. The triangles aren't like the Gskill Royals and I would call those a full frozen effect.
I only have notification setup for you April and like one other channel. For some reason you seem like the most genuine RUclipsr on this platform. Really wish you would post more🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hello, I have a really quick question. So I'm only missing my RAM for my pc and I really need the RT CL16 but when I search it up it shows C16 only. Are both of these the same? And my processor is a Ryzen 5 5500
Hi Rairly! Yes they are both the same. Some companies/manufacturers will just use "C" for short. And all 3 of these RAMs are compatible with your Ryzen 5 5500! Hope that helps!
Very detailed, but tad bit too long, other than that, great video. What I get from this is that the performance differences are very minimal, so choose the one that's cheapest at the time or pick the one with the model that you like.
Hi, could you help me with this? I looking for a KIT RAM (2x32 GB) for 5900x/x570i build. I mainly work video, animation and casual gamer. What option do you recomender? is a Corsair Vengeance RGB RT or GSkill TridentZ NEO the best options? some else? Thank u so much for reading
Hi!! I would go with the Corsair Vengeance RGB RT or SL if you have any other corsair products or plan on getting any. The GSkill is a great choice too if controlling your RGB isn't a priority. Corsair has better software to control RGB
@@FLAMINeu iCue and the RGB lights in my RT work, no problems... but I could see it possibly not working with an incompatible or older motherboard. I have 4 sticks of 16GB for a total of 64GB and my mobo is a MSI Tomahawk Mag Z690 with an i7-12700K CPU.
I’m replacing my current 2x8gb 3200 cl16-18-18-36 Corsair with the 2x16gb 3600 cl16-20-20-38 RT kit, will this be generally the same latency or are the higher timings on the RT kit going to be noticeably worse? I’m using a z690 mag tomahawk and i5-12600k btw thanks
Hi! Your new 2x16gb 3600 cl16-20-20-38 RT kit will be noticable better over your 2x8gb 3200 cl16-18-18-36. The jump from 16gb to 32gb will make any worry you have for timings and latency go away😊 If you we going from 2x8gb 3200 cl16-18-18-36 to 2x8gb cl16-20-20-38 then that's when the CAT and MHz becomes a noticeable factor. Your RT kit pairs great with your 12600k so you're golden 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Yes you can Kacper👍🏻 The 12600k is compatible with DDR4 and DDR5 kits. All 3 of the models I tested will work for your system. Hope that helps and let me know if you run into any issues and we can assist!
@@AprilMayRain Hello, the RAM came and it worked without a problem, but you can't run XMP on the RT version, so I decided to change the RAM memory to Kingston Fury Renegade. If someone has bought RT version memory and has an intel processor, do not worry that it will not work, but bypassing XMP.
RT is my favorite in terms of looks, also the shop employee I ordered it from mentioned it has better RGB compared to the PRO, since he also has it himself. But one thing you shocked me with is that RT is optimized for amd, while I included 2x8GB 3600mhz RT CL16 for my intel i5 12600kf build. As far as I’ve read it should still work just fine, right?
@@dannyh1la sorry, it works just fine. Never had any problems with the ram, only problem is I still didn’t quite figure out how Corsair’s RGB software works. I had some other problems with my build, which kept me occupied until a few days ago, but nothing concerning the RAM. And btw, it looks dope
AMR great informative video! thanks, by the way u were saying get the SL instead of the RGB PRO, i just watched your RGB PRO VS RGB PRO SL video and notice that there is quite significant differences between them in terms of performance. Any advice? I'm on a ROG Strix B660-A D4 motherboard and 12400F. Thanks in advance. Cheers mate.
Thanks for watching man! I would still be looking at the RGB pro SL for your B660 and 12400F. The SL is still newer and overall provides a better experience but either way you can't go wrong!
Hi Andy96! How so? If you are comparing on your own system, you have to make sure you are using the same version of cinebench and specify the muli/single benches when testing.
@@AprilMayRain 3200 is OC speed not SPD, SPD speed is without the oc profile (Intel XMP or AMD EXPO) activated, if the RAM runs 3200 with Intel XMP activated, the SPD speed cant be 3200 too, it has to be lower, normally SPD should be 2133 or 2666 for DDR4
That's actually a good deal for you! Do you mind sharing what happened with your PC with the 32 gig RS kit? And I subbed, I want to see more RC content 🏎 🐺🙌🏻
The model does not matter. Look at the speeds and timings. Higher MHz and lower timing makes it better These specific kits in the video are kinda bad for the money since they're CL 16 -20-20-38. U can get CL 16-18-18-36 kits from other brands for cheaper like the oLoy Blade RGB. lower timing = lower latency = more and consistent FPS
@@UnluckyDomino yes but I already bought corsair RT and I can only swap with PRO or RS... that would cost me 20 more dollars. I am using intel. RT is optimized for Ryzen. Right?
@@Tranquillz You made a good choice with the RT! Your intel PC should give you excellent results when it come to running the same benchmarks I did. If you are really concerned, hit me up on insta and send me a DM of your speeds/specs so I can compare👍🏻
@@AprilMayRain do you know if Corsair Vengeance LPX c16 3600hz do 4 dimms with the same performance without losing any hz or cl ?? some kits cant do it. I mean 4X8 ... doable or performance loss?
@@Tranquillz If there is a kit that comes in 4 than it will definitely work with no performance losse. If you buy 2 2x8 kits then it should also work with no performance losses. I would hit up the Corsair chat bot if you can from corsair's website. They have been good on answering those kind of questions but let me know!
@@fiekz79 I would have to run more test on different CPU and MB configurations. What's great is you can always return if the XMP profile isn't available.✌🏻

Would it be really worth it to buy the SL (due to its completely white design) eventhough is not optimized for Ryzen? or does it really make a difference to have Ram optimezed for your cpu?
As in the RT version.
Thanks and keep up the good job.
i mean it works hella fine even if it does not have optimisations for a certain cpu. Look at those optimisations like a buff, but, yeah, it works fine without any drop of fps compared to the other one. The real difference is the cpu frequence. At least get a 3000+
Hey Okabe! In your situation, the white SL would be the way to go. You would get more benefit out of a beautiful white designed kit of ram in your PC than a non-all-white kit even with the small bump of performance. You could go with the RT but I feel like if you're vibing with a white look which I don't think the RT will satisfy. Amazon is also awesome so you could order both and return the kit you want. Hope that helps Okabe and feel free to ask anymore questions!
the amount of energy you have at the beginning actually gave me a shock..
You might be new to the channel but that's just me being myself✌🏻💯😁
nice video, very helpfull, thank you!

Great Video! Im currently looking for 2x16gb DDR4 3600mhz cl16 ram to upgrade my pc and noticed the huge price difference between de RGB RT, RGB Pro SL and the Trident Z rgb. While the RGB RT only costs 130€ the Trident Z costs 180€ and the RGB Pro SL from Corsair more than 200€! I honestly dont understand why the Price Differenc is so huge. Do you have an idea? And could you recommend any other RGB Ram besides the Corsair and Trident Z ones?
Thanks for watching Granat! Yeah the market has been up and down recently for RAM prices. You can't go wrong with either of them but that RT price isn't bad! It was the most expensive option in the US when I made this video. Other RGB RAMs that I have tried I didn't like the software to control it. I has been awhile so maybe that has changed.
Same for me, i'm going to choose 2*16 SL 3600 MHz CL18
@@mr.andrex228 excellent choice!
Good video thank u mate ❤
Thanks Classy!! ❤❤❤
great video man! Just great
Thanks dackel42! You're great!🤍
Great analysis!
Thanks man!!
For $50 is the RS model still worth it? The rest are at least $90. Sorry for my English
If you are on a budget, I would say the RS model is still worth it 👍🏻👍🏻
Dude you deserve a huge round of applause 👏. This video was absolutely informative and helpful keep ‘em coming.
Thanks ZZZ! I'm going to have DDR5 content soon that I'm excited about making!
RT version can be considered for intel use ?specially for lga1700 ddr4 it has more frequencies variances . since ddr5 bit high when it comes with pricing .
Thanks for the insightful comment! I have pined it so it can help other viewers👍🏻
Got the RGB pro which is still good even now.
Good choice!💯
@@AprilMayRain thank you.
12:00 Correction. RGB configuration is NOT the same in RT and RS. RS has only 6 individually addressable LEDs where the RT has 10 individually addressable LEDs. So the RT's RGB animation flow is way smoother than the RS. Corsair Vengeance RGB RT FTW 😋
Yes! When I made this video, Corsair did not have any RGB information posted but now they do. I have pinned your comment Ravindu so hope it helps other viewers😊😊
@@AprilMayRain No worries, sir

I have older Corsair Ven RGB Ram 3000Mhz 2x8GB (16GB) I have Z390 Gigabtye Aorus Pro Motherboard with Intel 7-8700K with RTX 2080 I want to do soft upgrade to 32GB Ram. What would reccomend for my specs? Thanks
just received 2x 64 gb kits of RS 3600. didnt see any notification of amd or intel optimization in the ad i purchased it from newegg on. but it should work just fine with my 5950x system. ran corsair ram for the last 20 years or so and have only had issues on one kit awhile back that came mismatched from the factory but was fixed by corsair quickly
Nice! The RS will do great in your system. Yeah I think I will stick with Corsair ram for now. Been really liking their kits!
Thanks for the vid, but does the RT look irl a little like frozen cause of the triagles? would be interested in that
I see how you can see that! At a close distance, it kind of has that "frozen" effect but it's subtle. The triangles aren't like the Gskill Royals and I would call those a full frozen effect.
I only have notification setup for you April and like one other channel. For some reason you seem like the most genuine RUclipsr on this platform. Really wish you would post more🙏🏻🙏🏻
That meme at 4:45 had me
😂😂
Corsair Vengeance RS modules have 6 ARGB LEDS whilst Vengeance RT modules have 10 ARGB LEDS.
Corsair released more information since I filmed this video so I pinned your comment so other viewers can know as well. Thank you!✌🏻
Hello, I have a really quick question. So I'm only missing my RAM for my pc and I really need the RT CL16 but when I search it up it shows C16 only. Are both of these the same? And my processor is a Ryzen 5 5500
Hi Rairly! Yes they are both the same. Some companies/manufacturers will just use "C" for short. And all 3 of these RAMs are compatible with your Ryzen 5 5500! Hope that helps!
Very detailed, but tad bit too long, other than that, great video.
What I get from this is that the performance differences are very minimal, so choose the one that's cheapest at the time or pick the one with the model that you like.
Thank for your comment and I love your name!! Yeah even with how fast I try and cover everything it still ends up being way too long of a video😄
Cheers n thanks !

Hi, could you help me with this? I looking for a KIT RAM (2x32 GB) for 5900x/x570i build. I mainly work video, animation and casual gamer. What option do you recomender? is a Corsair Vengeance RGB RT or GSkill TridentZ NEO the best options? some else? Thank u so much for reading
Hi!! I would go with the Corsair Vengeance RGB RT or SL if you have any other corsair products or plan on getting any. The GSkill is a great choice too if controlling your RGB isn't a priority. Corsair has better software to control RGB
Hey, I ordered the RS version without knowing the differences between these sticks.. Will I be fine if I pair it with Ryzen 5 5600X?
Yes Acolytes! You should be perfectly fine pairing the RS with your 5600X. Let me know if you have any issues tho!
@@AprilMayRain works great dude thanks for the reply!
thx for the nice video
No problem man! More to come!
RT works fine on my Intel build
I pinned your comment so it can help others wondering how it works for intel. Thanks for sharing Elijah!
can you also control the RGB lights with iCue? because I heard it will not working with Intel
@@FLAMINeu iCue and the RGB lights in my RT work, no problems... but I could see it possibly not working with an incompatible or older motherboard. I have 4 sticks of 16GB for a total of 64GB and my mobo is a MSI Tomahawk Mag Z690 with an i7-12700K CPU.
@@FLAMINeu It depends on the Motherboard but it should work with the majority of Intel systems.
Hey man,
There is two version of RT (3600mhz & 3200mhz)
Which one is the best you think?
3600mhz for the extra leeway but if you're not gonna be OCing up to that point at all, just get 3200mhz. It's cheaper.
The 3600mhz will perform better but the 3200mhz will still kick a**. All about the cost difference and availability.
I’m replacing my current 2x8gb 3200 cl16-18-18-36 Corsair with the 2x16gb 3600 cl16-20-20-38 RT kit, will this be generally the same latency or are the higher timings on the RT kit going to be noticeably worse? I’m using a z690 mag tomahawk and i5-12600k btw thanks
Hi! Your new 2x16gb 3600 cl16-20-20-38 RT kit will be noticable better over your 2x8gb 3200 cl16-18-18-36. The jump from 16gb to 32gb will make any worry you have for timings and latency go away😊 If you we going from 2x8gb 3200 cl16-18-18-36 to 2x8gb cl16-20-20-38 then that's when the CAT and MHz becomes a noticeable factor. Your RT kit pairs great with your 12600k so you're golden 🙌🏻🙌🏻

So guys i can USE THE Corsair Vengeance RBG RT version with my Intel i5 12600k?
Because i saw the pc config on the video and he use i7 8700k
Yes. It works out of the box at advertised speed. Just need to enable XMP on BIOS.
@@bongbong8630 Thanks for the help, i just change the RAM for HyperX Renegade because i want to use XMP.
Yes you can Kacper👍🏻 The 12600k is compatible with DDR4 and DDR5 kits. All 3 of the models I tested will work for your system. Hope that helps and let me know if you run into any issues and we can assist!
@@AprilMayRain Hello, the RAM came and it worked without a problem, but you can't run XMP on the RT version, so I decided to change the RAM memory to Kingston Fury Renegade. If someone has bought RT version memory and has an intel processor, do not worry that it will not work, but bypassing XMP.
@@kacperb8919 Kingston Fury Renegade is still great and thanks for sharing your findings!
im upgrading to 32GB 4x8 3600 Mhz Corsair Vengeance RGB RS from G.Skill 32GB 4x8 3000Mhz . i hope i notice the proformence gain
Hey how’s the upgrade going ?
@@gary5054 still waiting for the ram. Has not even shiped yet. Dont know if its the damn war càusing the delays or just slow shipping delays
If your GSkill kit was an "RGB" version and not a "NEO" version you should see a good spike in performance 🤟🏻
RS or SL fom my Z390 board ?
I would push more for the SL for your Z390 but you can't go wrong with either the RS or SL👍🏻
RT is my favorite in terms of looks, also the shop employee I ordered it from mentioned it has better RGB compared to the PRO, since he also has it himself. But one thing you shocked me with is that RT is optimized for amd, while I included 2x8GB 3600mhz RT CL16 for my intel i5 12600kf build. As far as I’ve read it should still work just fine, right?
Yes still should work great but let me know if you have any issues! RT is awesome!

Guys. I’m so confusing with rs rgb and pro rgb. Which one should I choose to stick with ( as far as i know the RS don’t have Temp Sensor)
The SL is a good choice! The RT is if you want the best performance but it's pricey
RGB is not for me, can I disable the flashing lights altogether and have them in no colour at all, like the good old days ! ?
Yes you can! You can either do it in software or in BIOS.
@@AprilMayRain thanks
Good video
Thanks Sam! Hope you stick around🤗

Yes should work just fine!🙌🏻
can i use them with old rgb pro? im looking to upgrade from 16gb to 32gb
You can! But don't recommend it for long term use.
show a picture of the DOCP memory timings in BIOS for the corsair RT modules
Definitely making a note of that for a future video!
3200 mhz cl16-20-20

AMR great informative video! thanks, by the way u were saying get the SL instead of the RGB PRO, i just watched your RGB PRO VS RGB PRO SL video and notice that there is quite significant differences between them in terms of performance. Any advice? I'm on a ROG Strix B660-A D4 motherboard and 12400F. Thanks in advance. Cheers mate.
Thanks for watching man! I would still be looking at the RGB pro SL for your B660 and 12400F. The SL is still newer and overall provides a better experience but either way you can't go wrong!
i have Corsair DDR 4 32G (16Gx2) 3600 CMN32GX4M2Z3600C18 , will it work with Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro CMW16GX4M1Z3600C18 ?
Hi Amir, are you trying to upgrade to 64gb of RAM? The kits you are comparing will work together but would be safer purchasing a 64gb kit
Surely those cinebench results must have been fabricated?
Hi Andy96! How so? If you are comparing on your own system, you have to make sure you are using the same version of cinebench and specify the muli/single benches when testing.
when you find out corsair vengeance rgb pro sl 2x16 3600 is configured in single rank 😂😂😂
CL16-20-20-38 is a bad XMP spec
There's usually 16-18-18-36 for cheaper than Corsairs kits

¡Hola amigo! Recomiendo SL
Does anyone really know why RT does good on intel ?? I bought RT but I have intel. Did I do a mistake ? Please comment here
The model does not matter. Look at the speeds and timings. Higher MHz and lower timing makes it better
These specific kits in the video are kinda bad for the money since they're CL 16 -20-20-38. U can get CL 16-18-18-36 kits from other brands for cheaper like the oLoy Blade RGB. lower timing = lower latency = more and consistent FPS
@@UnluckyDomino yes but I already bought corsair RT and I can only swap with PRO or RS... that would cost me 20 more dollars. I am using intel. RT is optimized for Ryzen. Right?
