The terms "DIMM" and "UDIMM" generally describe the same kind of memory—unbuffered memory. The RAM packages available since the PC66 era now include these names. Combining different speeds means your system will operate at the slowest speed among them. (For example, using 3600 and adding 3200 results in everything running at 3200.)

I don't focus on hues or illumination since my setup isn't windowed. This appears to be a reasonable deal for two 16 gig sticks, and multiple bundles at this cost seem reasonable.

The 12400F reaches up to 4.4GHz, but turning off the boost might significantly reduce its performance.

I thought DIMM was buffered because it wasn't mentioned otherwise, but it seems like a mistake by the manufacturer.

3200CL21 performs slowly, it would be better near 3200CL16, but it’s not terrible for the cost. Is this in stock? You can check the links provided.

The first link is currently out of stock, and the second one mentions a restriction for Euro deliveries. I believe these items are from the UK, but the 2x16 GB stick kit (CL21) should still function adequately, correct?

They can handle it, though they’re built to operate well past their limits—so you’re safe from damaging your PC. Your CPU is likely running about half its claimed speed.

They are available, but the PC part picker hasn't been updated for the US. Fixed link: Amazon page. Updated version: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B092ZCVHS8?th=...g=pcp0f-21 and another link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09GX8KPH8?th=...g=pcp0f-21

Based on what I've seen, it's highly unlikely the PC won't function at all—it will likely operate at its minimum performance settings. Those differences in quality are quite significant. One is a title designed for a 2014 console release meant for casual play, while another targets broad audiences who've been using it since 2010 (though there was an update in 2018). Star Citizen hasn't been launched yet, and even my 5800X3D struggled with it, achieving only around 15 frames per second in the cities. Give it a try during its free trial to check if you can run the game at all.
