Hello everyone, I hope you're all well! I'm switching from an ASRock Z370 Pro4 with an Intel Core I5-8400 to the MSI MPG B550 Gaming Edge WiFi. Since I didn't need Wi-Fi, I chose the MSI model without it. I'm upgrading to an AMD Ryzen 5 5600X and need RAM from a reputable brand. I'm looking for 3600 MHz, 4GB per module, CL18 or higher, no RGB, and a slim profile to fit under my Noctua NH-D15. For a set of two 8GB modules, I'm planning to spend around 100 euros, which brings the total for four modules to about 200 euros or more. I've searched a bit but haven't found what I'm after, so any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Suggest Crucial Ballistix for their precise clock speeds and top-notch Rev. E silicon to boost performance—though I’m not sure where you are, but in Germany two 2x8 kits of 3600CL16 cost 180e total. https://de.pcpartpicker.com/product/2TFK...8g36c16u4b

The price feels a bit high, but Corsair Vengeance DDR4 3600MHz CL18 16GB kit seems solid. Are Corsair non-PRO series reliable?

It’s similar to a $20–$30 increase, but it delivers 110% value over time.

The issues I've encountered on these forums mostly involve Corsair RAM, not running at XMP or strange behavior with Dominator RAM when using four sticks.

Thanks everyone, the crucial update is installed and it's performing well, honestly I'm not sure, but it even improved my Cinabench R23 score a bit xD
