Want to upgrade memory on R5E and 6850K

Dominator Platinum or Dominator Platinum RGB 3200MHz 4x8GB are best choice for RVE/X99 at the moment.

I am an Amazon Prime member so I'd get free two day shipping with them. Both are model number CMT32GX4M4C3200C16. I'm liking the RBG models and I know I'd have to download the iCue software to run the lights.

URLs for the two product sites:

https://www.newegg.com/corsair-32gb-...-508-_-Product

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...4M6PYDP85&th=1

The lights would add a nice touch to my PC. The main thing with these are that the timings are the same as what I'm running now, 16-18-18-36. The only difference I see is that my memory is running at 1.20volts and these are listed as 1.35. I wonder if my system would lower that voltage??? Or would the different voltage make a big difference?

I'm assuming these would pop right into my motherboard and I would be ready to go. I may have to check the bios to see if I need to move some memory setting to 3200.

Thanks for answering all my rookie questions. I hope I'm not wearing you out too much.

Hi,
I've posted to C14 and C15 both 3200 and you pull C16 out your rear end again with garbage timings
I give up buy mediocre memory again :doh:
That C16 corsair is crap

If you want the best memory then use this,

Sorry, just having trouble digesting all this stuff. I am grateful for your help in my memory education. Thx.

I wound up buying an RGB CL15 3000 MHz Dominator 4x8GB. I was surprised the lights lit up and had some profile built in? I haven't downloaded the iCue software. The system picked them up so later I can play with some tweaking. The CL14 was just too pricey for me.

Well, that sucks!!! Good for someone who's looking now. That hurts my feelings!

Hi,
You just wanted the arrgeebee nonsense

Quite a few people ask questions but already made up their minds

**phantom101** · 10-01-2019 04:16 PM

As it turns out, I love the RGB nonsense.

I did think you'd need the iCue software to run it but it appears to have a single profile running that I like.

More important now is that now I need to learn about memory timings so I can squeeze out a little more performance. I'm researching that now. Looking for a guide to help me along.

Hi,
If i want lighting I'll get strip lights
As it is I have one arrgeebee fan just to see what my water level is in my reservoir.

Corsair memory have two xmp profiles that's usually as far as they might go on the sloppy loose timings they use.

Thx, I'll take a look at those profiles.
