Corsair Announces All-in-One RAM, Power Supplies and Liquid Cooling Systems, Which Will Be Compatible with AMD Ryzen Processors

The arrival of the AMD Ryzen processors is assuming an update in the motherboards, since they bring the new AM4 socket and also requires an update in the coolers. Although an adapter is more than enough, some brands will begin to sell the heatsinks with the anchors and if we have an old one, registering the product will give us the update kit for free. Corsair is now ready for the new AMD Ryzen processors and has released a list of products that will support the new processors.

Among the products, we can find DDR4 RAM memories, power supply, heatsinks and All-in-One liquid cooling systems. Of all these products, the DDR4 RAM memories and liquid cooling and heatsinks stand out, as they are more specific products, while power supplies are the least relevant, since the new AMD Ryzen processors do not require any special power requirement. Corsair has said that its high-end Corsair AX power supplies, the mid-range Corsair RMs and the low-end Corsair CXs, are ready for these processors.

AMD does not support technologies similar to Intel's XMP, therefore, it is something to keep in mind when we are going to assemble our equipment and Corsair has worked on this, to see that its memories work well with the new Ryzen processors. Corsair has highlighted Vengeance LPX DDR4 2133MHz and 2400MHz memories, in addition to Dominator Platinum in a quantity of 16GB and these are running at 3000MHz. A catalog app is not being discarded in the near future.

The coolers are a very important issue, since the anchor is new and also, the Ryzen with the letter 'X', the better the cooling, the more often they can rise. To move to the AM4 socket we need an anchoring system for the heatsink and Corsair has already reported that it has its kits for liquid cooling ready and has provided a list of compatible RL systems.
