stock results mainly revolve around three configurations: cl14 3200, cl15 3600/cl19 4400 (mostly identical) and cl14 3600/3800 (slightly improved, a lower tier version). These are the three SKUs I use based on my setup, though there are more options available. Regarding overclocking potential, it's largely a matter of chance—cl14 3200 has been found at around 95 USD, cl15 3600 kits for about 125 USD, and the latest cl14 3600/3800 for roughly 150 USD. The BIOS doesn't always hit the absolute top, but it offers decent overclocks for entry-level builds. The Rev-E chip is particularly enjoyable with Intel processors, and if you're really experienced, the Zen series can be fun too.
Looking for Micron Rev E supporting high clocks (4000mhz and above). Most Samsung B-Die options work well with varying voltages. For speeds below 4000mhz, the Samsung B-die kit is a solid choice. The part number offers good value and fits the 3600mhz CL16-16-16-36 XMP range. I’m testing a red version on an Intel IMC with the F4-3600C16D-16GTZSW. There isn’t a superior kit unless it matches the same speed but has lower latency, like CL15.
Rev-E should work at around 1.5V, but sticking to 1.45V adds extra safety if needed. Someone with more experience might offer better advice. Expect a tough challenge getting CL14 on Rev-E; the subtimings will likely suffer. Check your Ryzen 3600’s FCLK range—probably between 1866-1933MHz—and adjust your memory speed accordingly (around 3800MT/s at 1900MHz FCLK). Tighten the timing settings too. Remember, subtimings matter just as much as primaries, so don’t rely solely on low CAS latency and let everything else be fine-tuned.
Sure, you're looking for the most affordable options. In practice, you end up paying more for quick B-Die production and then additional costs for RGB. If you're after the best, it's worth the investment.
Checking the impact of a 4600 MHz clock speed on Ryzen performance. The 2:1 FCLK change could affect timing, but results depend on the specific model and workload.
