Question 3200 Ram for Asrock b450m Steel Legend + R5 3600 ?

[irbluu]

So i am planning to go for a ryzen 5 3600 CPU with a Asrock b450m Steel Legend or at least B450m Pro4 but i have problems picking the ram, i'd like to go for 2x 8GB at 3200 mhz, any suggestions ?

I was thinking about https://www.amazon.com/TEAMGROUP-T-...elta+3200&qid=1572430982&s=electronics&sr=1-3 but i'm not sure if they are compatible with the motherboard

Welcome to the forums my friend!

Any of these would suffice - there are plenty more, but these are well priced currently according to PCPP:

Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws V Series 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 Memory ($64.99 @ Newegg)
Memory: Team T-FORCE VULCAN Z 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 Memory ($64.98 @ Amazon)
Memory: G.Skill Aegis 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 Memory ($59.99 @ Newegg)

Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available

Are they compatible in XMP with the motherboard? the qvl lists are so poorly made..

Also, is anyone running the Team T-Force Delta RGB 3200 with this motherboard ? i'd really pick those for the aesthetics, but i don't know if they work well..

The QVL is not a make or break, they are simply a guide. In effect the QVL shows the RAM modules that the motherboard manufacturer has tested, not necessarily which ones are and aren't compatible.

The best way to find out compatiblility is to actually go to the RAM module manufacturers support list as they are more likely to have tested it on most motherboards.

What is it about the T-Force? The RGB? In which case, yes fine:

take a look at this, i recommend ballistix sport lt. i have them in 3000 mhz cl 15 version and they run at 3800 mhz cl 16 atm. i paid 68€ for 2x8 GB.
For the Mainboard you can also check out x370 Crosshair VI Hero it has extreme good VRM and can support up to 3950x (Bios flashable with usb bios flashback).

Well i tried the QVL on their website ( of the RAM manufacturer ) and its crap, they don't even list the 3200 mhz, and you can't understand what's going on there either, that's why i'm here

On a side note, https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16813145081 would this be better than the asrock steel legend ?

That's an overkill for what i am looking for, also the price is 4 times higher
