Viper Steel RGB DDR4 3200 Kit
This 16 GB kit contains two 8 GB DDR4 3200 modules rated at CL18 with 18-22-22-42 timings. It runs at 1.35 V and supports Intel XMP 2.0 for automatic overclocking. The black aluminum heat spreader includes RGB lighting that synchronises with ASUS, ASRock, MSI and Gigabyte software.
Compatibility Checklist
Verify your motherboard has four 288-pin DDR4 slots and supports 3200 MT/s operation at 1.35 V. Confirm the CPU memory controller can handle the rated speed without manual tuning. Ensure the chassis provides enough clearance for the heat spreader height and that your RGB control software matches one of the supported vendors.
Target Users
Ideal for builders who want matched RGB illumination and plug-and-play XMP performance on mainstream Intel or AMD platforms. Users needing ECC, registered modules, lower latency bins or speeds beyond 3200 MT/s should consider other kits.
