Pros & Cons
Pros
Micron/crucial makes quality ram and they’re all i ever use when upgrading oem sticks. Purchased for lenovo legion 5 pro with the amd 5800h. Crucial is one of 3 companies that make their own ram.
Cons
Sticks run at 2600 natively but can be overclock to 3200 if your motherboard supports xmp, which mine does not. Requires higher voltage than dell motherboard can provide. Amber/white led indicating compatibility issue.
Crucial's customer support site is an absolute unstaffed maze with no live chat representatives. Crucial needs to get their act together and better train their employees and be more forthcoming in the product description.
Highlights
Quality
My omen, while a 2017 model, was running perfectly with the exception of it needing a ram upgrade.
Anyway, it is still a good quality ram.

Competitiveness
I have a 10th gen i7 intel system in my msi gamer.
Tip top ddr4 memory for current laptops - this is the best laptop memory that is widely available as far as speed and latency.
Will update if it gets the full 3200mhz on the newest ryzen 7 5800h model.
All other sodimm memory on the market is far less than 3200 cas 16 - in fact most is cas 18-22, making this memory supreme.

You must enable xmp in your bios for this ram to run at 3200mhz though otherwise if you just pop it in and try to use it youll see it running at 2666mhz
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Most midrange motherboards and better have the option to enable xmp some are really difficult to access though

I know this because i build and overclock computers all the time so i consider this to be common knowledge but almost all this info is easily found on youtube and other reputable online chat forums if you just spend 10 seconds to search the major ones
