About this deal

I still have two more DDR5 kits to present but decided to start with Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB DDR5-6200 CL36. I'm rarely reviewing Corsair RAM so I was especially interested in how it works and what it offers. Custom Intel® XMP 3.0 Profiles: Customize and save your own XMP profiles via iCUE to tailor performance by app or task for greater efficiency. Go to the last column at the end of the row to Exit and Save your settings. It should reboot automatically. the mother i bought, the X670E TUF WIFI plus, it will come to my home between tomorrow or the next days in the week.

Gigabyte failed every BIOS for Z690 regarding DDR5-6000+ support. The same problems are on other, higher series Gigabyte motherboards like the Master. Considering that Z690 Master already had at least 8 BIOS versions (probably more) that were supposed to fix DDR5 6000-6400 compatibility issues and it still doesn't work, suggests that their BIOS team has no idea what is doing or they simply can't make anything as the hardware has its limitations. As usual, fine-tuning would require more time so these are just examples of how you can set this specific memory kit. This was probably the first support "firewall" where are usually clueless people who tell you what they have in the product specs. This same number in units of MHz is called the "effective frequency." The effective frequency is the base frequency times two because it is double data rate (DDR) RAM.The motherboard is an ASUS Prime Z70-A WIFI. The memory is Corsair CMK32GX5M2B5600C36. They are BOTH on each other's respective compatibility list. decreasing frequency to 5400, 5333, and 5200, all of those behave similarly to increasing the voltage, seems stable but will cause some random read failures from SSD or graphical glitches. The tested memory kit is based on two 16GB modules with Hynix IC. The product number is CMT32GX5M2X6200C36 but I haven't seen it on any QVL. Most Z690/DDR5 motherboards have many pre-release memory kits on the list and most of them, even with the same product number, are using different IC. Either way, let's focus on the Corsair kit.

We have tested and confirmed all parts as working, motherboard, memory, SSD, PSU, etc. This is frustrating as since each part works, no one is willing to help as their particular part functions. The memory kit has one XMP profile at DDR5-6200 CL36-39-39 1.30V and doesn't require any manual adjustments to work. The memory kit passed memtest built-in ASUS motherboard and AIDA64 stability test. Below is a screenshot from the AIDA64 test. In this forum review, I used FarCry 6 as a game test. The last time it was Shadow of the Tomb Raider. In both cases, the difference between XMP and the fastest manual settings is ... 1FPSDitch the tedious process of manually adjusting your performance settings each time when you save your own XMP profiles through iCUE.

Besides, i got these rams for a very good price, and it was the only kit available, the other pc stores that sells these kits or similar cost way more. Either way, we are 6 months after the premiere and every motherboard manufacturer has problems with DDR5-6000+ compatibility or stability. Some motherboards run higher, some lower, but there are problems with specific RAM brands, used PMIC, used IC, motherboard design flaws, production problems, and some more. For example, DDR5-5600 has a data rate of 5600 MT/s, an effective frequency of 5600 MHz, and a base frequency of 2800 MHz.

Our analysis shows that the Corsair Vengeance (CMK32GX5M2B5600C36) RAM has an effective frequency of 5600 MHz, which leads us to conclude that it is Excellent for gaming and professional tools. I highly doubt that your CPU causes the problem. I've tested multiple 12600K and 12900K and all were about the same, and all that I had, could run at 7200 stable on a single slot. Sadly, my motherboards are limited to 6400-6800 on 2 slots. The tested Dominator Platinum kit works without issues on ASUS Strix Z690I Gaming and Gigabyte Z690 Master. As far as I wasn't worried about the ASUS then Gigabyte causes problems with some other memory kits, especially G.Skill at more than DDR5-5600. Here were have DDR5-6200 at XMP that works fully stable and the motherboard has no problems with booting. High compatibility also seems like a surprise as many previous Corsair kits had problems with Gigabyte motherboards while now it works better than G.Skill.
