Advice on a Ryzen system build

[Tarashev91]

So i am looking to build a new Ryzen based system.

I all be using my current GPU with the idea of upgrading later on.
Sapphire Vapor-X R9 280X
With a Seasonic S12II 620W Bronze 80 Plus PSU

And i am thinking of buying the following hardware:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1600 six-core (3.2/3.6GHz, 3MB L2/16MB L3 Cache, AM4)

Motherboard: MSI X370 GAMING PLUS, X370, AM4, DDR4, PCI-E(DVI,HDMI)(CF&SLI), 6x SATA 6Gb/s, 1x M.2 socket, 10x USB 3.1, 6x USB 2.0, ATX

RAM: 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 3200MHz, Corsair Vengeance LPX CMK16GX4M2B3200C16, 1.2V

STORAGE: SSD 250GB Samsung 850 EVO
1TB WD Caviar® Blue™, SATA 6Gb/s, 7200rpm, 64MB, 3.5"

WiFi: TP-Link TL-WN881ND, 300Mbps MIMO Wireless-N PCI-Е Adapter

Case: Zalman Z9 NEO Silver/Black edition.

Any advice or correction on my thoughts are wellcome. Good or bad.

People report problems when trying Vengeance ram in a Ryzen guid , you should pick other ram ( Ripjaws V, Trident Z are fine with ryzen) to stay out of any trouble

I haven't heard this. It has nothing to do with the RAM brand it has everything to do with RAM speed. You should get nothing less than DDR4-3200 at the moment.

I have a 1700 with the Trident Z. I can run the sticks fine at 2933, but at 3200 i need to manually adjust voltages or they wont boot out of the box at 3200

I have Corsair Vengeance RGB 3200mhz RAM and it works perfectly with my Ryzen system. No reliability issues whatsoever.

Yeah I have a pretty similar setup and I can use Corsair DDR4 on my Asrock Taichi with no problem. Also the Vengeance is listed in Gigabyte's QVL for their Ryzen motherboards specifically. So I think this must be misinformation coming from store reviews.

That is completely incorrect info. Vengeance works perfectly fine. In fact I have an 1800x build running Vengeance LED ram at 3200 mhz. At the initial release G-skill Trident Z was preferred because most systems needed Samsung B die to run at full speed. That has long been corrected.

The Corsair memory is better don't buy the Team Group.
