Patriot Viper Steel DDR4 RAM 16GB (1X16GB) 3200MHz CL16 1.35v UDIMM Desktop Gaming Memory Module Compatible with XMP - PVS416G320C6

Upgrading my PC with this Patriot Steel DDR4 RAM was a bit of a rollercoaster. When I first installed it and powered on, I got an error that made me think the RAM was faulty. My heart skipped a beat! Turns out, silly me—I put the RAM in the wrong slot. Once I fixed that, everything fired up perfectly. Going from 16GB to 32GB was a massive jump. My computer now runs lightning fast, and I can have way more browser tabs open and multitask like a champ without slowing down. If you’re looking for a reliable RAM upgrade that seriously boosts performance, this Patriot Steel kit is the way to go — just double-check your slots before panicking like me!

Just a forewarning to anyone looking to buy this kit is to make sure to check your motherboard manufactures QVL of compatible RAM. check the part numbers for example this kit "PVS416G440C9K" and check if its there. for peace of mind if you want to play it safe. I purchased this kit anyways even though its not in the QVL. but that doesn't mean you can't run it :D testing results are done by a complete novice (me) and will verify soon in forums if they are done right for now its just a typical amazon review. I had a lot of fun benching this kit to find the right timings for a few profiles on my daily rig. There were tons of trials and errors cold booting double booting no boot etc. all while learning how timings work. took a few days/nights trying to find the right sweet spot for my system, While trying to stay within the memory controller limits, hopefully its enough to utilize this kit. Here are my results. Tested PC Parts CPU - Ryzen 9 3900x OC 4.3ghz on all CCX's Cooler - Noctua NH-U12S (push/pull on NF-12 fans) Board - Asus TUF x570 Plus Wi-Fi bios rev. 1407 ( memory kit is NOT in the motherboard QVL) GPU - Nvidia GTX 1060 6gb (doesn't really matter for this test) Case - Lian Li Lancool II PSU - EVGA 850 G5 Storage - Corsair Force MP600 Tested Profile: CPU Setting - Ryzen Master on Manual OC @ 4.3 1.28v on all CCX's Manual (D.O.C.P.

I was scared to buy this kit at first because its not in my motherboards Qualified Vendor List (QVL) furthermore I was looking at the voltages on the kit themselves, Which they state are rated to go 4400Mhz @1.48v I would say its fairly high for daily use. Normally should be around 1.35v is what everyone says, but I will test it out in the long run @ 1.45v. I ran MEMtest86 overnight with a 0 errors and a 1500% pass so I would say its stable that this profile. I will try to test for higher frequencies another day, maybe 4200? Overall I am satisfied with how this kit performs. I would definitely get another set if I could.

It's hard to go wrong with ram from Patriot. This is top performing DDR4 ram at a great price.

Exelente producto

Bought this RAM for my new build based on several site recommendations and reviews. It is easy to install like pretty much all RAM. Popped it into my new MSI Z490 Tomahawk (listed as supporting 4400mhz with this RAM) with a I5-10600K. Immediately went into the BIOS and enabled XMP profile 1 (4400mhz) system would not boot. Had to manually reset the BIOS. Used XMP profile 2 which sets it to 4266 which isn't bad. Booted, got everything up and running Windows installed, drivers installed, data transferred. Setup OCCT and was getting errors about 15-20min into the system test which is a bit odd. Did a memory test and got an error almost immediately. Ran Memtest86 from USB, kept getting errors on Test 6. Did a lot of research and found many other folks have issues with the XMP profiles on this RAM. I ended up clocking it at 4000mhz but lowered the CAS to 17-17-17-38 and re-ran memtest86. 4 successful passes. OCCT ran full 1hr test with no issues. Then moved on to OC'ing the 10600k.. but that's another story. So.. It's not bad RAM per say... it's more like mobo/Intel haven't caught up. Not a bad buy at the price, and leaves room for possibly reuse in a future upgrade.

Good performance memory kit. Easy set up in bios for the xmp profiles. No crashes.

works great!

Très bonne ram ! Ras

Barettes OK, prix pas trop élevé compte tenu des hausses en ce moment.

Tuning depends on the quality of the ram motherboard and CPU. Basically luck, now that out of the way. I have a cheap b450 and 5700x running 4850mhz - gaming. I was able to hit 56k bandwidth and 54ns latency with 3733 and tuned subtimings, going above that will degrade the performance as I have to pump more voltage into the CPU and end up throttling it's clock as its already tuned to max or else going C2/gear2. Current state is 3733 cl14 @ 1.48v
