Get them at that cost, definitely. Even if just to test them on C15 or 16. I’d consider C14 too, though—it’s tempting.

It seems the kit is quite old, likely around 5-6 years, which puts it in a challenging category. The high chance of failure is significant, especially with newer components like Ryzen not being compatible with older DDR4 designs. You might face issues getting the system to boot, though some users have managed it. If you're unsure, it might be safer to opt for a more recent build.

You're set to go. I'll purchase it. Since my rig uses DDR3, I don't have a testing system, but I have a friend with a 5800X who can help. Thanks!

They should handle CL16 timings at that speed because they're built for it, though I don't expect consistent results. At the price, it's a solid offer as long as the hardware is in good shape. HOF sticks are often adjustable, which gives you an extra advantage.
