Pros & Cons
Pros
Kudos to corsair for the no hassle and solid packaging. Worked just fine, but is a little bit expensive. With that being said, the price is justifiable for the quality.
Corsair vengeance lpx 16gb (2x8gb) ddr4 dram 2666mhz c16 is a great down the middle performance ram for mid to lower level gaming or general use applications. Corsair combability is amazing across the board and honestly the safest bet when purchasing ... Read More
Cons
Black screen when boot. None of the ram goes past 2333 mhz regardless of what i do in all the bios, xmp profiles 1 or 2 or auto. Corsair doesn't update the part number when it makes changes to the memory.
One or both of the sticks are corrupted. This one is by far the most egregious example.
Highlights
Quality
I’ve had it for about 2 years now and have not had any issues at all, really quality ram!
Super easy (5 minutes) upgrade and really stable at its rated speed with a ryzen 5 2500 @ 3.
Discovered one stick failed 2 months short of 5 years.
Mine turned on and off again and again for about 5 minutes until everything was fully ready to go.
Price
They are a really good pick up for the price.
Works well and was much cheaper than some of the other options.
Finally felt the need to upgrade to 32gb, so i bought another 16gb for $80.
It's a good purchase and worth the price.
Shipping
The product arrived earlier than expected and brand new no problems what so ever, everything should be like this!
Would have been faster but i only check my email once or twice a week.
It got delivered, i slapped it in and booted to bios, set the xmp to get the 3000mhz out of it, and booted into windows.
Packaging/appearance
Kudos to corsair for the no hassle and solid packaging.

It's also one of the cheaper sets of ddr4 at moderately high speeds.
It may only be 3000mhz but at cl15 it doesn't really make much of a difference.
