Initial Setup

Once installed in my Intel test system, you can see that the Corsair Vengeance blends into the system as whole. Going with black is generally a safe bet as it matches most system components.

Supporting Hardware

Quick Look: Corsair iCUE4 Software

While the Vengeance lineup does have some SKUs that include RGB lighting, these do not. However, if you have other Corsair peripherals, Corsair Commander or the AIO, the iCUE 4 software is compatible with this memory kit as well, giving readouts of current timings and operating frequency.
