Corsair’s mainstream SODIMM memory solution for DDR3 Laptops. Designed for current generation notebooks, mini-PCs and netbooks, Corsair’s new high density SODIMMs allow users to maximize memory bandwidth and minimize performance bottleneck to deliver superior user experience. Corsair SODIMMs are optimized for the Microsoft® Windows® Vista™ and Windows 7 client operating systems.
Just after 4 cycles of Memtest (still running), the Corsair Vengeance is running strong. I installed it on my M18x, and upgraded it from 4GB 1600MHz (2 DIMMs) to 8GB 1866MHz (2 DIMMs).
The timings are tigher than the popular Kingston HyperX 1866 Plug and Play, and also around 25 cheaper. The only thing that had me slightly worried was that some BIOS do not permit any configuration to the RAM, which almost swayed me toward the HyperX Plug and Play since it is suppose to "auto-overclock".
For this Cosair RAM, there are two XMP Profiles built in - if you have a BIOS that permits configuration to the RAM, it is as simple as selecting the second profile an saving. My system had no issues recognizing both the speed and capacity of the RAM.
Edit: Now I am satisfied - 8 continuous cycles of memtest!
