Hello everyone, I'm exploring options for a RAM kit for my upcoming build. It's an ITX system, so I'm aiming for a 2x32GB configuration. Initially, I only saw 3600MHz kits from both G.Skill (Trident Z Neo) and Corsair (Vengeance RGB Pro). Now I've discovered a Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro model (CMW64GX4M2K4000C18) offering 4000MHz speeds. Should I consider adjusting the memory speed to 3600MHz for my Ryzen 3000 and maybe 4000, while optimizing timings? Or would this approach be too complicated and impractical?
You have the ability to perform those actions, yet practically you might also boost a 3600 MT/s setup or adjust it further if needed.
I own a Kingston HyperX RGB 4000 kit with 4000 and 3600 XMP settings. During testing on both Intel and AMD systems, better performance was observed with the 3600 profile compared to 4000. I’m not sure if Corsair offers a lower XMP profile, but it seems more effort is needed, making it worth considering.
You're considering a 4000MHz kit with similar timing to a 3600MHz one. It seems you're curious about whether it could help tighten clock speeds by lowering the lower frequency. I wasn't familiar with rev e dies—those higher-end options usually involve B-die designs, though that's not guaranteed. This is your first RGB build, so you're specifically after RGB RAM for a better fit. You're also interested in finding a G.Skill kit that syncs well with Aura Sync. It makes sense to explore this, especially since your workload is mostly gaming and creative tasks. The extra cost of a pricier kit might be worth it if it improves performance or timing stability.
32 GB sticks? Not sure if they work with Ryzen. They seem tailored for certain ASUS MITX boards or might be a different type of RAM.
