Hello! You're looking to buy VENGEANCE® RGB PRO 16GB DDR4 RAM and have a few points to consider. The kit supports ASUS PRIME B350-PLUS boards with Ryzen 5 2600 processors. For CPU speeds, 3000Mhz and 3600Mhz are both viable options, but 3200Mhz is ideal for optimal performance. If you prefer lower speeds, 3000Mhz or 3600Mhz would also work well.

Review the QVL entries for the motherboard to verify compatibility, though Vengeance kits tend to work across most systems.

This model is VENGEANCE® RGB PRO 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4 DRAM 3000MHz C15 Memory Kit — black (corsair.com). It doesn't work with AMD boards, correct?

It was specifically designed for this test. I don't think the packaging is reliable.

They tend to be broadly compatible, similar to what @Slottr noted. However, if you're concerned about using only parts from the QVL list, it's not necessary. The RAM model for that part is listed, and there are no "CMW" entries on the QVL for that motherboard with a 2000 series. "CMW16GX4M2C3200C16" is mentioned. Corsair claims it should function as well. They likely tested it with older CPUs and boards rather than newer ones, whereas Asus may have rechecked the board with later RAM releases.
