The description mentions compatibility with certain Intel series, but it doesn’t confirm whether your Ryzen 5 3600 would need RAM. Check the product specs or contact support for confirmation.

It should function. Usually "Intel ram" refers to compatibility with an Intel processor or is used for promotional purposes.

It functions with AMD, I own one personally, works well with AMD CPUs. Claims about RAM being AMD or Intel specific are just marketing tricks—just disregard them.

You likely made an error with TofuHaroto. It appears the information about compatibility with AMD is incorrect.

The compatibility charts exist mainly for those unsure about whether to use DDR3 or DDR4.

For DDR2 and DDR3, the RAM is exclusive to AMD because they offered more addressable memory per chip. This allowed using smaller, higher-capacity chips in sticks designed only for AMD, which meant either fitting more RAM into a single stick or reducing the cost compared to compatible Intel options. However, I’m not sure this applies to DDR4 anymore.

Yeah, I get it. Since we're discussing DDR4, this usually isn't an issue.
