Alternative memory options available.
Hello! Your current Patriot RAM sticks are 8GB at 3000mHz, but I’m checking if the same model is available for a 16GB kit. You’re thinking about getting a 16GB package that could reach up to 24GB, but there’s uncertainty about part compatibility. You mentioned considering Corsair Vengeance LPX at 3200mHz—could that work? Also, your setup includes a Ryzen 3 3100 on an A520M DS3H, so I’ll let you know if it can handle the higher speeds. Let me know if you need more details!
The 24GB will likely slow things down. For better performance, opt for 32GB or stick with your current 16GB model. If you need more RAM, a 2x8GB 3600 CL16 setup gives you top speed. Your CPU should handle it, but the motherboard chipset might struggle. I don’t suggest mixing another memory type with what you already have—it could lead to problems later.
Avoid purchasing Corsair Vengeance LPX as they often fall short of their advertised performance. Didn’t realize I overlooked that detail in my earlier comment.
Thank you for your question. I don't have personal preferences, but I can suggest popular options if you're looking for reliable brands.
