Hello All,
Hope everyone is doing well. Newbie here and would appreciate assistance on the following:
Can anyone please tell me what the following ASUS QVL categories mean? I am trying to understand them so I can properly select my RAM for my build which consists of the following: MOBO (ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Dark Hero) and CPU (Ryzen 5950X).
Thank you in advance for your advice and assistance and any additional information and comments you can share would also be appreciated!

- SS/DS - is single-sided better than double-sided for the MOBO/CPU I have?
- RAM Speed vs. Supported Speed - what do these categories mean?
- Timing - is this something I take into consideration when selecting or is it just an FYI after the fact?
- Voltage - is this something I take into consideration when selecting or is it just an FYI after the fact?
- Socket Support - what do these numbers mean? (ex. 1,2 and 1,2,4)
- Size - my MOBO ,from what I can tell from the specs, has 4 RAM slots meaning it can accommodate up to 4 sticks; but when I look at the ASUS QVL for the MOBO it shows options like "8x8GB", "8x16GB". How could that be?
Thank you in advance for your advice and assistance and any additional information and comments you can share would also be appreciated!
