Overview

The Corsair Vengeance LPX CMK16GX4M4A2400C16R is a 16GB DDR4 memory kit comprising four 4GB modules rated at 2400MHz with CAS 16 timings. Built on an eight-layer PCB for improved signal integrity, each module features a pure aluminum heat spreader that helps dissipate heat during extended use and overclocking sessions. The low-profile form factor is a standout feature, ensuring the modules fit comfortably beneath large tower-style CPU coolers and top-mounted radiators that can obstruct standard-height DIMMs.

Designed with Intel platform optimization in mind, the kit supports XMP 2.0 for straightforward speed configuration — simply enable the profile in your motherboard's BIOS to run at the rated 2400MHz. The four-module layout is ideal for platforms that support quad-channel memory, though it also functions in dual-channel configurations on mainstream boards. While the 2400MHz speed and 16GB capacity place this kit in the entry-level segment of the DDR4 market, it remains a reliable foundation for everyday computing, office productivity, and moderate gaming builds where outright memory bandwidth is not the primary concern.

Key Features

Designed for high-performance overclocking: Each Vengeance LPX module is built with a pure aluminum heat spreader for faster heat dissipation and cooler operation; and the eight-layer PCB helps manage heat and provides superior overclocking headroom.

Designed for great looks: Available in multiple colors to match your motherboard, your components, or just your style

Vengeance LPX is optimized and compatibility tested for the latest Intel X99 and 100 Series motherboards and offers higher frequencies, greater bandwidth, and lower power consumption. XMP 2.0 support for trouble-free automatic overclocking

Low-profile heat spreader design: The Vengeance LPX module height is carefully designed to fit smaller spaces.

Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

  • Low-profile design fits under oversized CPU coolers without clearance issues
  • Pure aluminum heat spreader promotes efficient thermal dissipation during sustained loads
  • Eight-layer PCB improves signal quality and supports stable overclocking
  • XMP 2.0 support enables one-click speed configuration in BIOS
  • Four-module kit populates all DIMM slots for quad-channel operation on supported platforms

👎 Cons

  • 2400MHz speed is modest compared to newer DDR4 kits running at 3200MHz or higher
  • 16GB total capacity may feel limiting for heavy multitasking or content creation workloads
  • Four-module configuration leaves no room for future expansion on standard quad-DIMM boards
  • CAS 16 latency is on the higher side for this speed tier

Frequently Asked Questions

This kit includes four 4GB DDR4 modules for a total of 16GB.
Yes, the Vengeance LPX uses a low-profile design specifically to ensure clearance under tall tower coolers and AIO radiators.
Yes, it supports XMP 2.0, allowing you to enable the rated 2400MHz speed with a single BIOS setting.
The kit is rated at CAS 16 (C16) at 2400MHz.
While optimized for Intel platforms, DDR4 is a standard format and this kit generally works on AMD DDR4 motherboards as well, though compatibility should be verified against your board's QVL.
