That's where I was looking to see if it's compatible. I'm looking for 64GB (8x8) of Corsair Dominator memory. The Dominator has the same specs as the Vengeance. (I think)

Hello Harry,
Unfortunately, your specific 8GB RAM memory is not tested; however, it does not mean your RAM will not work. I do see we have other 8GB Dominators (CMD32GX4M4A2400C14) that have been tested, so there will most likely be no issues.

Those look the same except for one has 4 stick and the other has 8. Was only 32GB tested with certain brands?
Thanks for the part number. I'll look at each part number again to make sure. Don't want any weird issues popping up from incompatible memory.

All the parts are here. After I cleanup my place I'll install everything onto a test bench and make sure it all works and I don't have any DOA parts. I would hate that.

What OS are you running? Do you have your ram modules in slots 1 & 3 per the diagram?  Also verify in the BIOS that you're BCLK Frequency setting is around 125 & not 100. With 3000 MHz ram you need this setting to be 125. My suggestion would be to set your memory speed manually to 2666 and timings to the rated specs printed on the sticker on the ram sticks if you can't get it to boot at 3000. When you make a change to the memory speed, go back to verify your CPU Multiplier control setting is on auto or manual if you're overclocking the CPU and the correct core ratio's are set.

Hey thank you for the reply! I was able to figure it out...I updated my motherboard bios and it worked without a problem..do i still need to set my bclk to 125? And do i make sure both rams are working at their fullest capability.. thanks again!

You're welcome and glad you got things up & running.
As far as ram speed and the Bclock. Any ram speed over 2666 and under 3200 will need to use the 125 bclock. You can try your ram at it's rated 3000 with the 125 bclock, but some members have reported issue's trying to make it run. Worth a shot and if it doesn't work or isn't stable, just manually set the frequency to 2666 and the timings to the rated specs.
