If you are going for vengeance, don't forget that their height can block install of most of the popular after market CPU coolers especially if you want to add a couple more sticks later.
^ +1 Recently upgraded to Corsair 1600MHz DDR3 RAM
Vengeance doesn't fit in the first slot with my CoolerMaster 212 plus.
I've also got a similar question, I have 2 x 4GB Corsair XMS3 1600MHz + 1 x 4GB Corsair Vengeance (couldn't find another XMS3 in stock
) so after rebooting i went into bios & saw that the clock was set to 1333Mhz instead so i set it to manual & increased it to 1600MHz < Have i over clocked it? is there any harm here, since both of them are already 1600MHz? Also Why would it not set to 1600MHz in the first place? I check the timing it was same on all the 3 Sticks 9-9-9-24.

they only set the maximum stock clock to 1333
no you have not over clocked them but just set the right frequency timings
nothing to worry here
i guess you must have brought the rams 1 piece each so are they running in dual channel mode
aasimenator said:^ Ok! Yes i think they are running in Dual Channel mode
