DDR4-3200 Performance

The Vengeance LPX kit is rated for speeds up to 3200 MT/s on compatible systems.

Memory Speed

• Memory Type: DDR4
• Rated Speed: 3200 MT/s
• Commonly Marketed As: DDR4-3200 / 3200MHz
• PC Rating: PC4-25600

DDR4-3200 provides a strong balance between performance and compatibility across a wide range of DDR4 desktop platforms.

CL16 Latency

This Vengeance LPX kit combines DDR4-3200 speed with performance-focused CL16 latency.

Rated Timings

• CAS Latency: CL16
• Primary Timings: 16-20-20-38
• Tested Voltage: 1.35V
• Rated Speed: 3200 MT/s

This makes it a strong mainstream configuration for gaming and performance-oriented DDR4 PCs.

Intel XMP 2.0 Support

The memory supports Intel XMP 2.0, allowing compatible motherboards to configure the RAM's rated performance profile through the BIOS.

XMP

• Intel XMP: Yes
• XMP Version: 2.0
• Rated XMP Speed: 3200 MT/s

The RAM may operate at a lower default speed when first installed. The appropriate XMP or memory profile may need to be enabled to reach the advertised 3200 MT/s settings.

Dual-Channel Kit

The 2x16GB configuration allows dual-channel operation when the modules are installed in the correct slots on a compatible motherboard.

Dual-channel memory provides greater available memory bandwidth than a comparable single-module configuration.

For optimal performance, follow the motherboard manufacturer's recommended DIMM-slot arrangement.

Low-Profile Design

A major advantage of Corsair Vengeance LPX is its compact heat-spreader design.

The low-profile modules improve compatibility with:

• Large tower CPU coolers
• Compact PC cases
• Air-cooled gaming systems
• Builds with limited RAM clearance

This makes Vengeance LPX particularly useful in systems where taller RGB memory modules could interfere with CPU cooling hardware.

Aluminum Heat Spreaders

Each module features an aluminum heat spreader designed to help dissipate heat from the memory components.

Benefits

• Efficient heat dissipation
• Durable aluminum construction
• Low-profile dimensions
• Clean appearance
• Suitable for sustained workloads

No RGB Lighting

Vengeance LPX focuses on performance and compatibility rather than integrated lighting.

• RGB Lighting: No
• Color: Black

Its understated black design works particularly well with minimalist and professional PC builds.
