Just bought a pair, C15 3000MHz 16GB DDR4 for $110 including $10 GST, Bargain for me. Do not forget cash reward or shopback
CamelCamelCamel.
20% more expensive but I don't think it's even 5% faster.
Might as well go 2666
But at the same time, if you're building say a $1000 PC it would be 2% of the cost for 5% more performance, which makes a lot more sense. It's all about building a balanced system.
And actually, only $12 more for the black 3200mhz kit on Amazon US (sorry, don't know how to get a link from the app)
It’s C15, isn’t it better than a C16 3200mhz?
C16 @ 3200MHz is 15 clock cycles = 5 nanoseconds
C15 @ 3000MHz is 16 cc = 5 nanoseconds
But generally your ram will perform faster after the initial latency in performing it's operations internally etc.
Thanks for the explanation!
Sorry I completely stuffed that up. It should have been:
C16 @ 3200MHz is 16 clock cycles (1/3.2GHz*16) = 5 nanoseconds
C15 @ 3000MHz is 15 cc = 5 nanoseconds
But generally your faster clocked (3200) ram will perform faster after the initial latency in performing it's operations internally etc.
I ordered these also, I think we got the better deal.
These have Micron E-Die which are by far the best bang for buck chips at the moment.
You could have had ram and a meat pie. Now you only have ram.
Anyone can confirm if this will work with the new ryzen chips?
At this stage Ryzen works with basically all ram. 3000Mhz is not a problem.
Yay ram prices coming back down to earth!
News says they're about to jump back up due to a dispute between Japan and South Korea.

Price isn't that great IMO, unless you want Corsair branding. Better deal: https://www.newegg.com/global/au-en/geil-16gb-288-pin-ddr4-s…
Check the first review on the page.. be aware!! Lol
Its sold and shipped by Amazon US. Doubt its a fake. That review is more likely to be faked.
Thanks OP, this will work well in a very tight SFF build.
I got two ram stick if add this two even different brand do you think its fine? Or it will work?
It will still work, provided they physically fit into the RAM slots (for example, mixing DDR4 RAM and DDR3 RAM won't work).
I don't think branding is the issue, it's the RAM speeds. Whatever your computing needs are, the speeds may or may not make a difference to your experience.
The QVL list of my mobo supports this model CMK16GX4M2B3000C15. Basically it is the black colour of the same ram. Do you think if I used this one it would work like the black colour version? Because I could not find the white colour version in the QVL list of my mobo. I'm asking because the price difference is almost $20. So I just might return the black ones that I bought and buy the white ones.
I'd suggest people would be better off spending another $20 and getting the 3200 sticks, especially if running a Ryzen CPU
