Page 10 - Overclocking and Conclusion
With the Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5-8400 2x24GB tested here at APH Networks, how did it stack up against the competition? Based on our results, it is exactly where you expect it to be. This should not come as a surprise to anyone -- the compared DDR5-8400 kits, including Kingston's Fury Renegade DDR5-8400 2x24GB and XPG's Lancer CUDIMM RGB DDR5-8400 2x24GB, all feature identical SK hynix M-die chips under the hood. For overclocking, I kept it at 1.40V and let it loose. I was able to start my PC at DDR5-8800 even at stock latencies, but it was not Prime95 stable. For Prime95 stable, I was able to get it to DDR5-8600 at 44-56-56-142, as shown in the screenshot above. This represented a 2.4% overclock, which is not a lot, but DDR5-8400 is already operating in the stratosphere to begin with. Performance aside, the Corsair Vengeance RGB features a slick gray and silver heatspreader with RGB LED lighting to show off in your build, and a limited lifetime warranty should anything go wrong. For about $350 at press time, the Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5-8400 2x24GB is a high performance set of CUDIMMs priced within the competition to maximize your system's performance using the latest generation Intel CPUs.
