Veangeance and Crosshair Formula IV

[Leonard Gill Menard]

Hello,

I've done a little search on memory compaptibility with Corsair (I've got a Crosshair Formula IV with 1100T CPU [Not OCed]).
It's ain't write in the Asus Mobo manual if there is a Veangeance, 8GB, 1600Mhz, Dual Channel compatible with the Mobo, so I' asking your help to help me find a correct match...

BTW, would it be better to wait for the AMD Radeon Ram to get out ?

Thanks alot in advance!

PS: Sorry for my bad english... second language.

Yes it's compatible.

Only go for AMD RAM if you want maximum stability. Speed... not so much.

Do you think Radeon RAM will be as cheap as Vengeance RAM per GB ?
Which Vengeance RAM is compatible with ASUS Crosshair IV Formula ?

Thanks!

Dual channel kits are compatible w/ your mobo. AMD Performance Edition 8GB are pretty cheap but it really depends on where you buy em. Get which ever one is the cheapest.

I RMAed a Corsair Vengeance 8GB dual channel because it was incompatible......, it wasn't jsut booting...

You probably had bad RAM. When Corsair sends you another one, you should be fine.

Why didn't you address this problem in the first post?

I changed my vengeance for dominator for 50$ more but triple channel 6GB Dominator...
But in the manual, there wasn't any Vengeance...

AMD RAM seems to be the best

 

[Leonard Gill Menard]

The best ? I don't think it's better than Corsair Dominator GT's, but it would be better than Corsair Vengeance ?

Yes

 

[Leonard Gill Menard]

AMD radeon RAM will be better than Corsair Dominator GT or than Vengeance ?

AMD radeon RAM will be better than Corsair Dominator GT or than Vengeance ?

In terms of stability, yes.

 

[Leonard Gill Menard]

But performance ?
but yes for the two ?

Give me specific models. But in general, yes. Vengeance will be a hair faster.

 

[Leonard Gill Menard]

Vengeance will perform less well than Dominator GT ?
Dominator GT is better than Vengeance ! No ?
a compatible model with Asus Crosshair IV Formula with AMd Phenom II X6 1100T BE...

Yes, Dominator is faster.
Any dual-channel kit will fit your motherboard.

But will it boot up ? show the BIOS ?

Yes, as long as they're not bad sticks (broken).
