Corsair Vengeance DDR5 SODIMM: The Complete Guide

The release is datelined “FREMONT, CA, April 19th, 2022” and says the module is available immediately from the Corsair webstore and its authorized retailers 1. The current product pages list capacity options from 8GB to 96GB (2 x 48GB) and speed options of 4800MT/s CL40, 5200MT/s CL44 and 5600MT/s CL48 23. Corsair does not date the additions to speed and capacity 12.

The release says the modules are “Optimized for the latest DDR5 gaming and performance laptops and small-form-factor PCs” 1. It says installing needs “just a screwdriver” in most laptops 1. It states no price and sends readers to Corsair’s website or a local sales or PR representative 1.

The tech-specs table gives package memory pin 262 and memory series “VENGEANCE SODIMM DDR5” 24. It lists no module height, no heat spreader row and no lighting row, and the release states none of those either 21.

The release writes 4,800MHz; the product pages write MT/s. This guide keeps each source’s own unit 12.

Neither the launch release nor the product pages name the maker of the DRAM chips, and neither mentions a power management IC or on-die ECC 124.

The release never mentions Intel or AMD; its footnote reads “For a full list of compatible DDR5 laptops, please visit” and gives a link, which this guide did not follow 1. The product page prose says “Compatible with a wide range of popular Intel® and AMD® gaming and performance laptops, small-form-factor PCs, and Intel NUC kits” 2. The same page’s tech-specs table lists Memory Compatibility as “13th Gen Intel Core or Newer” 2, and the 4800MT/s and 5600MT/s pages show the same table entry 34. The page’s install footnote says “Check with your hardware manufacturer for compatibility information and installation instructions” 2. Corsair does not say how these fit together, and none of its pages mention EXPO 124.

Those are the figures read from the two pages in October 2026 and they change 23. The launch release states no price and sends readers to the Corsair website or a local Corsair sales or PR representative 1. The Canadian figure appears in that page’s product metadata rather than in visible body text 3.

The release says high-speed kits “automatically set to maximum speed on compatible systems without needing to tinker with BIOS settings”, with a footnote defining high-speed as “5,200MHz speeds and higher” 1. The product page says “No BIOS configuration required to take advantage of higher speed” and a features bullet under a “Memory Tested Speed Disclaimer” label reads “Requires overclocking/PC BIOS adjustments. Maximum speed and performance depend on system components, including motherboard and CPU.” 2. The release calls the warranty “limited lifetime”; the product page heading reads “LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY” and its body says “lifetime limited warranty” 12.

The release introduces it as VENGEANCE DDR5 SODIMM and describes it as laptop and small-form-factor memory; none of the sources checked names a predecessor or a successor 12.

The release says “For high-speed kits**, the modules’ performance advantages are immediate, as they automatically set to maximum speed on compatible systems without needing to tinker with BIOS settings”, and its second footnote defines high-speed as “5,200MHz speeds and higher” 1. The 5200MT/s product page says “Automatically sets to maximum speed on compatible systems” and “No BIOS configuration required to take advantage of higher speed” with no kit-speed qualifier in the text read; under a “Memory Tested Speed Disclaimer” label the same page adds “Requires overclocking/PC BIOS adjustments.” 2. The 5600MT/s page carries the same lines 4. The 5200 and 5600 kits are inside the release’s 5,200MHz-and-higher definition, so this is a difference in how much is said, not a changed claim; Corsair does not say which of the page’s statements governs for a given laptop 124.
