Is this amazon ram legit?

So, looking to build my first PC.  Yes I want 64gb of ram (after effects etc). So, I found this "great deal" on amazon for 16x4 corsair ddr4 3000 for $412.   It says "usually ships in 2 to 4 weeks".  There are no reviews.   Too good to be true or mistake on Amazon's part or what.   

 

Secondarily, thinking about going with the z270e strix mobo, which I believe only supports dual channel ram...so would it make a difference to buy 4x16... Or buy 2 kits of 2x16??    

 

Any help is appreciated.

Also wondering about using the kraken x62 with the above mentioned ram and mobo.  Read some things about clearance issues with the x62.  Any insight on that?

"Ships from and sold by Amazon.com."

 

100% legit bro.

I will only order computer parts from Amazon if it's "Shipped AND sold by Amazon"

 

Got nothing on clearance though.  The ram is tall.

What this guy said!

 

As long as it says "Fulfilled by Amazon or Ships by Amazon or Ships from and Sold by Amazon" Then your golden! Its legit!

Thanks for the quick replies!  Just seems too good to be true, since its a lot more expensive everywhere else.  $554 on corsairs website

In the event it is a scam, Amazon should refund you or something, but its probably fine.

Fully legit, no need to worry.

I'm not into water cooling, bu the Kraken x62 is good, and has a 6 year warranty. If you are using it for anything work/school/anything ;^) related you should have it insured as part of your home owners/renters insurance anyway.

I'm asuming something like this is what your refering to, not sure whether you'd have issues or not.  the tubes in this pic sure are close to the ram.

its not terrible, if you can maybe go down to 32gb, that is what i use, 3000mhz 32gb kit 8x4gb, and for gaming and heavy cad and adobe creative cloud, 32 has treated me well, and well i spose for another 100$ you can get 64 over 32, and if your already spending 310ish why not spend 400ish and get double, by spending another quarter, so makes sense, there is this kit if you are prime youll save a little, and i like to support kingston because they are literally best in the game, i love their product, and have ever and i mean never had a any kingston product go bad, and is the same as you were looking for just a little cheaper and better brand in my eyes. and NO WORRY NO SCAM, its sold and shipped by amazon, so its like the best name in memory, and its sold and shipped by the greatest onlin retailer, cant go wrong (and if you can wait 5 days )https://www.amazon.com/Kingston-Technology-HyperX-HX430C15PB3K4-64/dp/B01GCWQ72O/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1492067912&sr=8-2&keywords=64GB+DDR4+3000
