What RAM is compatible
Hello, I've been trying to figure out the right RAM specs for your AsRock B450M Pro4 and Ryzen 5 3400G setup. Since you're not planning much gaming, I'm focusing on practical options. The VENGEANCE LPX (2x4GB) is listed as compatible with Intel Skylake, which matches your current CPU. For a more capable build, 2x8GB would be a solid choice, though it might require checking compatibility details. Just make sure to verify the exact requirements for your specific model before purchasing. Let me know if you need further help!
Only a handful of RAM modules advertise compatibility with Ryzen, while most work well. A 2x8GB configuration is also acceptable and is suggested for gaming PCs, particularly when paired with an APU such as the 3400G, unless you're using a dedicated graphics card.
16 GB is suggested, but if you're not heavily gaming (APU), you likely won't require more than 8 GB. Unless you run Chrome.
