The Enhance Corsa 1600Mhz 16GB Memory Kit from GeIL offers decent performance at a good price and comes with a specially designed heatsink which cools the memory chips with the help of the airflow inside the case.

During the tests, the CPU speed was set at 3.3GHz and Turbo was disabled in UEFI. Testing the memory at the stock settings occurred without problems, but when switching to the 1866Mhz step, I could not obtain stability by relaxing the memory timings, increasing the memory voltage to 1.65V or by increasing the VTT; at 11-15-15-30, the system was bootable, but after running HCI Memtest with 4 instances, errors started to occur after 30 minutes.
At the stock speed, the memory timings can be further tightened up, but it is needed to increase the memory voltage too (1.65V):
The pre-programmed timings and frequencies can be also found by using AIDA64:
