Boosted_01 R Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Since the compatibility request tread was closed and it wasn't in the compatibility list guess I would make a post.... also searched. Anyhow, has anyone successfully run Corsair Vengeance 1866Mhz Ram on the G74SX? The G74 has issues running 16GB of 1866 but seems to take 8GB fine running ******** Hyper X 1866. Was looking at getting Corsair 1866 8GB kit since it about $40 cheaper than the hyper x. I know a user with the G74 tried corsair 1866 but it BSOD, it also BSOD with the Hyper X, so its not a conclusive answer since the hyper x shouldn't have BSOD. Any info would be great. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boosted_01 R Posted February 21, 2012 Author Share Posted February 21, 2012 problem with that is, the info given is not accurate at all. on the ROG forum its been tested that 32GB at 1333Mhz works/16GB of 1600Mhz works on the G74 and 8GB of ******** hyper x 1866Mhz works...... was just wondering if the Corsair 1866 was successfully tested on the G74... should work but would like to confirm before buying.........yes running BIOS 203 Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted February 23, 2012 Corsair Employee Share Posted February 23, 2012 I am sorry but it would be best to contact the NB manufacturer for a list of tested/compatible modules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
