4 Dimms or just 2?

[Tobias S.]

Is it okay to put 2 times the 16GB Corsair Vengeance LPX schwarz DDR4-3000 DIMM CL15 Dual Kit on my Z370F So is it compatible?

[Sernefarian]

As long as everything goes as it should the motherboard will run paired sticks in dual channel, usually slots 1 and 3 as a channel with 2 and 4 as the other channel.

 

One day in the future our regular consumer boards will get quad channel ram support, until then it's the purview of the I9 and Threadripper builders in additional to server builders. Once we do though we'll get those delicious quad channel performance benefits as well.

If all four sticks are single ranked it'll work but when mixing kits it isnt guaranteed that you can run them at the XMP speed.

Okay i already knew that mixing different kits isnt good but from where do i know if they are single ranked? And i already have one Dual kit Of 16GB Corsair Vengeance LPX black DDR4-3000 DIMM CL15   in my PC and then if its compatible i would buy the same dual kit again, i think it should go because it is possible to get the same kit with 4 dimms and 32 gb of ram so it should work or doenst it? Is there a way to easily find out if they are single ranked? Or more easy find out if it is possible to put the kit 2 times in one system?

 

And it should work because if i pick the 32 gb offer or the 16 gb offer on mindactory ,it hast the same description (except if the how much gb it is and how much dimms)

The easiest way to find out for sure and 100% certainty is just asking Corsair. Users cant help because we cant know how they manufacture the kits, it can be that your kit is single rank but may be that they produced multiple versions of this kit using different chips on it in different configurations.

Part # and Vendor Site is one of the best bets. Aside from that sometimes reddit and other sties have lists of such things. For B-Die there is a page that I have the link for somewhere... searching... long link was ugly nested

For B-Die, but yep ...

His Kit isnt on the list. The reason for that is that most kits below 3200 or low CL arent guaranteed to be b-die because the manufacturers are just using different chips all the time. What he can do is he can download AIDA64 and find out from which manufacturer the chip on his KIT is from the SPD tab, and also find out if its dual or single ranked by just inspecting it with his own eyes.

Using Google-Fu to see if I can find a reliabel looking Corsair Kit list at the moment.

 

Found something promising that I am just not Deutsch enough for.

looks like dual ranked to me (Jedec DIMM label 2Rx8 = dual ranked, 1Rx8 would be single ranked)

Also check this out.

Asus z370f says it doesnt support 4 DiMM's of this kit. using ctrl+f with CMK16GX4M2B3000C15

 

So in your case its unlikely that it will work.

Okay so i cant put 4 dimms of that kit in my saystem but is it bad to put another 2 dimms with the same 3000Mhz in the system maybe the 16GB Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO Black DDR4-3000 DIMM CL15 Dual Kit? Or should I buy the Quad Kit ?

Nein spreche?( not even sure I spelled that right) looked through a little further and it seemed like it was only a portion of something that someone made spread across a bunch of pages with the complete record possibly buried only on their hard drive? Either way it didn't have the necessary part # table to be relevant, but looked initially promising.

 Idont know because on a website it said it has the part no. CMR32GX4M4C3000C15 and the newer version (ver 3.32  and 4.31 ) are 4 dimms compatible

[Tobias S.]

And is there a COrsair RGB ram that is compatible with asus aura ?

Are the RGB Pro even compatible with the ASUS Z270F Board? i looked the part number up on AMAzon and it jsuttells me it has the part numer :  CMW32GX4M4C3000C15 and there is nothing found in the list just with CMR32GX4M4C3000C15  but that is the normal RGB as it says from amazon

One More Question, i have found teh trident Z RAM, it is compatible with ASUS AURA and i have found the pat number :  F4-3200C16D-16GTZR  and thats the 16 gb dual kit and in the list it says you must put 4 dimms on the board then but if i get the 32 gb module with the part no : F4-3200C16D-32GTZR it isnt in the list ??!! WTF so is it okay then to buy the dual kit 2 times? OR should i write an email to ASUS and ask?

OOps the 32gb verson also stands in thelist but with the part no: F4-3200C16Q-32GTZR but i already asked asus if there is something wrong becasue still the : F4-3200C16D-16GTZR is a 16gb Kit
