Exana, Corsair already has Vengeance DDR3-1600. Is it not CL10? Is CL10 better then CL9? Is the latency really that different?
EDIT: I can see it is CL10... Isn't it better then CL9?

Thanks for all the feedback!
Im from Portugal, so i must save some fees and get the best deal here in Portugal. Here is what i could find selling in Portugal: http://www.alientech.pt/product_info.php?products_id=17726&utm_source=kuantokusta It is the Vengeance Corsair 2x8GB but as you can see the timings are not the same as you've posted... Will there be a problem? This is the only one i can buy, right now, here in Portugal...
EDIT: You posted the link to 2x4GB and not 2x8GB... Could you please post the exact memory you've bought so i can try to find in Portuguese stores or European Amazon resellers...
Oh, and i was talking about the new 2012 MB Pro models! Im getting the lower end soon and will get 16GB in them few months after.
Lower CL is better.
I had to buy a kit with 2 x 8GB DDR3-1600 CL10 (ref : CMSX16GX3M2A1600C10).
I did not found 8GB DDR3-1600 CL9 for Corsair in EU.
Like Dankex, would like to know exact ref.![]()

Thanks ! We will have the same memory. Default Apple DDR3-1600 is CL11 (11-11-11-28). So more RAM, same freqs and better timings.
I will got mine in two days.

Has anyone tried / know if these would work?

essentially HP server memory but with the same frequency and CL-10 or 11 I believe.
Should work right?
Edit: forgot to mention that I am talking about 1x 16GB blocks meaning with those we potentially could reach the 32GB ram.
Edit: actually looking at them I think they are locked to servers as they are labelled "ECC Registered RAM" :/
No not at all, because Macs use SO-DIMMS memory sticks and thats a DIMM memory stick, it's way to long. ANd if your using a MBP you can't the max RAM is 16 GB but the Mac PRO can have 64GB RAM and the iMac can have 16GB max RAM.
You are right about the So-Dimms, but you can actually have 32GB in the new ivy bridge Macbook pro's (if you can find sticks). Sandy bridge (for the most part) had a 16gb limit, but ivy bridge upped it.
anyway does anyone have experience with these?

Oh, I didn't know the Ivy Bridge could support up to 32GB!The RAM you have linked is the same RAM I have purchased for my MBP, and it's great. Another MacRumors.com admin has purchased it.

Awesome! Yeah I know practically 16GB is the limit it seems due to hardware supply, but in theory if you could find a so-dimm stick that's not server locked it should work.
Anyway cool! I will look into getting a pair of those soon.
Here is a good deal if you want: http://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Venge...90&sr=8-1&keywords=Corsair+Vengeance+16Gb+mac
thanks, only concern is the delivery to Australia... and should there be anything wrong, returning them would be a pain.
I got mine from http://www.rueducommerce.fr/Composa...0-2-x-8-Go-16Go-1600-MHz-CAS-10-Vengeance.htm
Looks like I got one of the last ones : out of stock now.
