To verify the type of RAM chip or die, you can use diagnostic tools or software specific to your motherboard or system.

Sure thing. 4X8GB from Grabhanem sounds good. I was hoping for four slots total, and it looks better with all the slots filled in. No prior experience with MFR, but it seems to be at least okay. As long as it can run smoothly at 3600MHz with my 5900X on a ROG Strix X570-E board, I’m fine. RAM prices in Slovenia have really risen—most 32GB kits for 3600MHz are over 200EUR here.
Samsung produces various die types. Being Samsung doesn't automatically make it a B-die. This list was created to help you find a B-die kit that matches your budget.
There are packages that employ different memory chips—generally whatever was available at the time. When a maker doesn’t specify a particular chip, they can alter it as needed. The most demanding memory speeds usually indicate superior quality.
Absolutely, @bowrilla. It seems some folks are chasing specs without considering real-world performance. From what I understand, CL18 versus 16 usually doesn't matter much at higher resolutions or when RAM isn't the main bottleneck. @ShrimpBrime my concern about game choices stems from wanting to play Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020. In fact, RAM speed and timings can really impact performance here—moving from 210 to 215 FPS, for example, makes a big difference, not just in frame rate but in smoothness.
The goal is to achieve the best performance improvements through adjustments and overclocking. A solid beginning would be using a quality B-Die kit like CL12 13 or 14 at 3200mhz, which would feel much more responsive compared to a 3200mhz CL18. This approach focuses on fine-tuning rather than just changing settings. Just confirm your choice and set XMP values—just opt for 3200mhz instead of 3600mhz, as the performance gains from simple configuration are limited.
