DDR4-3600 Performance

The VENGEANCE RGB PRO kit is rated for speeds up to 3600 MT/s on compatible systems.

Memory Speed

• Memory Type: DDR4
• Rated Speed: 3600 MT/s
• Commonly Marketed As: DDR4-3600 / 3600MHz
• PC Rating: PC4-28800

DDR4-3600 provides higher theoretical memory bandwidth than DDR4-3200, making it an attractive choice for performance-focused DDR4 platforms.

CL18 Latency

The kit combines its 3600 MT/s data rate with CL18 latency.

Rated Performance

• CAS Latency: CL18
• Primary Timings: 18-22-22-42
• Tested Voltage: 1.35V
• Rated Speed: 3600 MT/s

This provides a strong balance between frequency and latency for high-performance DDR4 systems.

Intel XMP 2.0 Support

The memory supports Intel XMP 2.0, allowing compatible motherboards to load its rated performance settings through the BIOS.

XMP

• Intel XMP: Yes
• XMP Version: 2.0
• Rated XMP Speed: 3600 MT/s

The memory may initially operate at a lower default speed. Enabling the appropriate XMP or compatible memory profile may be required to achieve the rated 3600 MT/s.

Dynamic RGB Lighting

Each VENGEANCE RGB PRO module features 10 individually addressable RGB LEDs integrated into its light bar.

RGB Features

• 10 RGB LEDs per module
• Individually addressable lighting
• Dynamic RGB effects
• Custom colors
• Animated lighting patterns
• Lighting synchronization
• No additional RGB cables required

The illuminated design makes the memory especially suitable for gaming PCs with tempered-glass side panels.

CORSAIR iCUE Compatible

The integrated RGB lighting can be customized through CORSAIR iCUE software.

iCUE allows users to:

• Customize RGB colors
• Select dynamic lighting effects
• Create custom profiles
• Synchronize compatible CORSAIR hardware
• Coordinate lighting across the PC setup

This makes the memory a strong choice for systems built around the CORSAIR RGB ecosystem.

Aluminum Heat Spreaders

Each module features an aluminum heat spreader designed to help dissipate heat while providing the distinctive VENGEANCE RGB PRO appearance.

Benefits

• Effective heat dissipation
• Durable aluminum construction
• Premium gaming design
• Integrated RGB light bar
• Clean black finish

Note: VENGEANCE RGB PRO modules are relatively tall, so clearance should be checked when installing large CPU air coolers.

Dual-Channel Memory

The included 2x32GB configuration supports dual-channel operation when installed in the correct DIMM slots on a compatible motherboard.

Dual-channel operation provides increased memory bandwidth compared with a comparable single-module setup.

Using two 32GB modules also leaves additional DIMM slots available for future expansion on many four-slot motherboards.

For Gaming

The 64GB DDR4-3600 configuration provides considerably more capacity than most gaming systems require by themselves, but it is particularly useful for users who combine gaming with demanding background workloads.

It is ideal for:

• AAA gaming
• Modded gaming
• Gaming + streaming
• Gaming + content creation
• Heavy multitasking
• Multiple applications and browser tabs
• Game development
• Simulation workloads
• Professional work alongside gaming

For a gaming-only system, 32GB is generally sufficient for most users, while 64GB is more beneficial for gaming combined with professional or memory-intensive workloads.

For Content Creation & Workstations

The 64GB capacity is particularly useful for demanding professional applications such as:

• 4K video editing
• Adobe Premiere Pro
• After Effects
• Photoshop
• 3D modeling
• Rendering
• Large creative projects
• Software development
• Virtual machines
• Professional multitasking

DDR4-3600 CL18 vs DDR4-3200 CL16

DDR4-3600 CL18 provides higher theoretical bandwidth, while the two configurations have approximately similar first-word CAS latency.

Important Compatibility Note

Before purchasing, verify that the motherboard and processor support:

• DDR4 memory
• 288-pin UDIMM
• 32GB individual DIMMs
• At least 64GB total memory
• DDR4-3600 or compatible speeds
• XMP or an appropriate memory profile

Running 2x32GB at 3600 MT/s can place more demand on the CPU's memory controller than lower-capacity kits. Actual achievable speed depends on the CPU, motherboard, BIOS, and memory configuration.

This kit is not compatible with DDR5-only motherboards or laptop SO-DIMM slots.

Best For

• High-End DDR4 PCs
• 64GB RAM Upgrades
• Gaming + Streaming
• Content Creation
• 4K Video Editing
• 3D Rendering
• Professional Workstations
• Software Development
• Virtual Machines
• Heavy Multitasking
