This ram come with 16gb 3200hz and cl16. it fast enough for my PC. It’s great for general task and gaming. It has Stunning RGB and the performance is great. It can sync with MSI mythic light. If you want you run in full speed don’t 4get overclock in bios otherwise it will run defaults speed 2400hz. I oc it to 3200hz. I can highly recommend. Very nice RGB ram!!!! <3

I've had one of these for a year (2x8GB of the RGB variety) running at 3200 MHz on Ryzen 2700X with MSI B450 Pro Carbon. They have an automatic default speed of 2400 MHz and two XMP profiles with 2933 MHz and 3200 MHz.Added another one for 32 GB recently (one year later), Machine would not boot at 3200 MHz with 32 GB, not even POST. Swapped the sticks around trying all combinations and it worked in a few others. New sticks in slots A1/B1 and old ones in A2/B2 offer the highest speeds.4 sticks worked fine at 2400 MHz in any slot config. In one it worked at up to 2666 MHz and in two others it POSTed at 3200  but was unstable.  In the worst of the slot configs none of the XMP profiles worked. In the best all configs worked but only 2993 MHz was stable.Attempting to set custom timings I found (via Thaiphoon burner) that the two  sets (of the same model, bought a year apart) were in fact manufactured two years apart and had different RAM chips. In other words they were mismatched.Any combination of two sticks (from old and/or new sets) would work just fine at 3200 MHz but not all four.Ryzens inter core cluster CCX speeds are dependent on RAM speeds which means at lower RAM speeds some core to core to communication  will be slower. This speed is usually the physical RAM clockspeed (half of DDR frequency). Having said that desktop Ryzen's 2000s max rated RAM speeds is 2993 MHz and anything beyond that is overclocking. For 4 stick configs officially AMD only guarantees 2133 MHz.Currently running it at 2933 MHz via an XMP  profile and performance in CPU heavy benchmarks like Cinebench R15 are at around 99.8% of the 16GB 3200 MHz speed. Having said that speeds in apps like Photoshop and Audacity is much better with both apps starting up virtually instantly and running like greased lightning and Unreal Engine 4 doesn't slow down after a while especially after multiple undos. So real world performance for me at least is much better.The moral of the story being if multiple RAM kits are being paired together (even of the same make and model) they should probably be bought at the same time from the same vendor to ensure internal components tally and they can work at their maximum rated speeds.

With my second system build, I just had to go with HyperX again. I have to say, good build quality and nice RGB lighting. I just wish Kingston still offered their HyperX RAM in different colors like they did with their DDR3 Savage RAM. None the less, these sticks look good and take overclocking with ease.

I have used Kingston and HyperX RAM modules in the past, and Kingston is a reputable high quality supplier of RAM modules. I purchased this RGB 16 GB kit to use on an ASUS Crosshair VI Extreme (X370) Motherboard for a new build I am creating for my daughter using a 2700X AMD Ryzen CPU.In terms of pure technical performance, these 3200 CL 16 modules do very well with Ryzen, and they overclocked to their SPD settings with the DOCP control in the BIOS flawlessly. I ran a test of AIDA64, and the bandwidth was excellent, rivaling my overclocked X99 Motherboard. So, these RAM modules do perform very well, and I am not missing anything by not having a CL 14 RAM kit.The RGB implementation did not work at first with the ASUS AURA software, but the Tech Services folks at Kingston were kind enough to help out and now the RAM does sync up with the ASUS AURA software and the rest of my ASUS system. So, I am keeping this RAM kit, and pretty happy I purchased these, and thankful to Kingston for their excellent customer service. Well Done!
