My ram has gotten cheaper from when I got it in August, cost me €120 for 16GB C16 3200mHz RGB, which is now €93 on Amazon here (3 months).

And while yes RAM has gone up in the past few years, it's been dropping for a while (graph for my RAM)

And I've also been considering better ram since it's also better in terms of price/performance atm vs the ram I have (32GB C16 3600mHz RGB), which was insanely expensive when it launced a few months ago (when I built my pc) and right now is crazy cheap in comparison (€180 atm).

But I still wouldn't, as I can't justify paying that amount of cash for it since I don't even use my 16gb fully right now, the bits of Photoshop/After effects here and there really don't even push it.

So yeah waiting is always an option, because you will also think: "Do I REALLY need to though?"

I would go for the G.Skill TridantZ ram since you have Aura on your board. You can find them
here

this one https://www.amazon.com/G-Skill-TridentZ-16GB-25600-F4-3200C16D-16GTZR/dp/B01MTDEYHU/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3A90576HJDNOO&keywords=gskill%20trident%20z%20rgb&qid=1562709366&s=gateway&sprefix=g%20skill%20tr%2Caps%2C223&sr=8-1&fbclid=IwAR3AB3i0Cbx8HS2T8m10-OkiLgnynX01EFRKpig6K_GXcnL9EKqjOTGSWFw

Yes, especially with the release of Trident Z Neo, the price is bound to drop further.

For reference, this is the amazon price trend.

xfr2 and precision boost is AMD's boost (auto-overclock) technology for their 2600X and 2700X. You can leave it alone and it will do its own job.

Samsung B-die is considered the best memory kit you can get for both AMD and Intel cpus. All cpus love fast ram (especially Ryzen), so might as well spend the extra $50 if you're allocating $2000 for the rest of your build. A fellow redditor created that nifty tool to help identify b-die ram kits.

You can overclock ram in the future, b-die is already fast enough. That DRAM calculator tool helps you save time when you choose to overclock ram

Edit: Just checked ca.partpicker.com. Looks like b-die starts at $280 in canada. RGB b-die starts at $325 lol

Edit2: looks like there is a $265 backorder for this kit https://www.amazon.ca/gp/offer-listing/B01MTDEYHU/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&condition=new

Can someone please look at this tech support post I made? I just built my PC but my ram frequency won't budge from 2133mhz even when I turn DOCP - Standard on -- even though all of the settings are saved and accepted, the frequency still reads 2133mhz:

https://www.reddit.com/r/techsupport/comments/6o9aif/

This is the ram I'm using: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MTDEYHU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

MOBO: Asus Crossfire VI Hero (Wifi AC)

CPU: 1800x

GPU: 1080ti

PSU: Evga supernova p2 850

I was told to stay clear of that company as they are based in Czech Republic and can have poor customer service/returns/replacement times.

Here is the same stick on Amazon for cheaper, but out of stock. I've ordered a pair form there

If I get two sticks of ram that have the same timings and speed but different sizes will there be any issues or will they run exactly that same. For example will this:

https://www.amazon.com/G-Skill-TridentZ-16GB-25600-F4-3200C16D-16GTZR/dp/B01MTDEYHU/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?keywords=16gb+trident+z+ram&qid=1557429724&s=gateway&sr=8-

Run the same if I add:

https://www.amazon.com/G-SKILL-TridentZ-32GB-3200Mhz-F4-3200C16D-32GTZR/dp/B07DMNZY56/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?keywords=32gb+ram+trident+z&qid=1557434433&s=gateway&sr=8-3

To it? I got a really good deal on a couple sticks.

Bit over $200 but this is the RAM I use. They look nice if you like RGB. Software lets you customize the lighting it produces.

https://www.amazon.com/G-SKILL-TridentZ-16GB-25600-F4-3200C16D-16GTZR/dp/B01MTDEYHU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1523287776&sr=8-1&keywords=gskill+trident+z+rgb

Awaiting for this ram to come back in stock, and this is a relatively good deal...

Looking to optimize the ram with lowest timings and try and maybe hit 3400. Used the timings from the back of the package but they look high compared to other ram posts on this Reddit. Appreciate the help!

Ram link
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01MTDEYHU/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1527598796&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=gskill+trident+z+rgb+16gb&dpPl=1&dpID=4199ul5-SHL&ref=plSrch

3000 MHz vs. 3200MHz is the RAM in question. So if I had 2 of each all that would happen is the 3200 would be slowed down to 3000 and thats all? Would it just be better to get the 3000 and avoid any issues that would have happened, and If I want the higher speeds, I would just OC them?

How do these compare let's say to this? https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B01MTDEYHU/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Amazon has it for 173.91 currently, in case you don't need the mouse.

It's those items that Amazon either damages slightly in the warehouse or get returned to them. Personally had very good luck with them, never got anything that was *really* that damaged.

​

If you care about warranty however, I would advise against it, since you're technically not buying new.

I can't understand why trident z rgb ram is so cheap on german amazon. Even on uk amazon it has the same price, bot on pounds..

Not sure if you are into RGB.

Both of your memory module choices will work. The reason that the price is different is the lower CAS latency, which doesn't matter as much as the speed. I would recommend using this from amazon. It is about 100 dollars cheaper than the ones that you linked and is identical except for the latency.

I didn't know that faster speeds helped Ryzen so much, thank you.
The only one I could find, that wasn't outrageously priced, was (G.SKILL at 3200 MHz) https://www.amazon.ca/G-SKILL-F4-3200C16D-16GTZR-Trident-288-Pin-DDR4-3200MHz/dp/B01MTDEYHU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1540762384&sr=8-1&keywords=F4-3200C14D-16GTZR

Yeah, sorry. Here's a link to the item ordered: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01MTDEYHU?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Curious if the below memory is considered CL16 and good for Zen2.

16gb is what a lot of people call bare minimum. I have this

I have purchased an X370-F mobo, and I'm looking for the correct RAM to buy, I've checked the QVL list:

http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/SocketAM4/ROG_STRIX_X370-F_GAMING/ROG_STRIX_X370-F_GAMING_DRAM_Non-ECC_QVL_20170522.pdf?_ga=2.93743773.1280458455.1511713549-886219183.1511713549

and it states that C14D Corsair RAM is compatible. Does anybody know if C16D RAM is also compatible? For example, the following:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/G-SKILL-F4-3200C16D-16GTZR-Trident-PC4-25600-Channel/dp/B01MTDEYHU/ref=pd_lpo_vtph_147_lp_t_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=QCX70GZEWG3HQ1T7261M

For reference, this is the Ram i am looking at: https://www.amazon.co.uk/G-SKILL-F4-3200C16D-16GTZR-Trident-PC4-25600-Channel/dp/B01MTDEYHU/ref=sr_1_3?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1511347152&sr=1-3&keywords=rgb+ram (Please do feel free to recommend anything else around a similar price, also i am not fussed about RGB)

RGB tho

A lot of times amazon will have it in the title of the product. Here’s an example again.

That part that starts F4-3200... etc is the product SKU and how g skill keeps track of what it is

I built mine a few months ago and went with G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) (PC4 25600) F4-3200C16D-16GTZR https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MTDEYHU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_VaNtDbD4MWZAT. Although I haven’t got them to run at 3200mhz yet. I think it’s just me being a novice.

I have Gskill TridentZ RGB 3200Mhz 2×8GB. It work great. The RGB is a bit more expensive but it look great.

Im using this now. I would say fill up your ram slot on your mother board would be best. one stick of high memory will be slower during multitask when comparing to multiple stick at the same GB

Got it fixed, windows is running.
But can I use this with my ram?
