I understand it might not seem important, but I wanted to double-check instead of just guessing like before. Last time I bought memory for a Ryzen 5600+ on a Gigabyte B550M AORUS PRO-P board, I chose between 16GB at 3200 CL16 or 3600 CL18. Which would be better?

Only two choices existed—3600 Cl18. Yet many RAM makers offer 3600 CL16, allowing you to enjoy the advantages of both. Top brands produce excellent models matching the price of Cl18 versions.
