I am building new PC as per windows 7 support for old processor I decided to for CPU ryzen 7 2700x or ryzen 7 2700
Motherboard Gigabyteb B450M Arius elite

For ram I am confused as ryzen 2700x supports 2933mhz and board supports up to 4000MHz

MY queries

1. Will 3200MHz ram work in its speed or it will work in 2933 speed with ryzen 7 2700x or 2700

2. Which brand ram is more durable effcient performance and leaa latency corasair or Gskill for ryzen 7 2700x and B450m Arius elite

3. Gskill ram have many variants models ripjaws flarex tridentz tridentz neo snipper and founded that flarex and tridentz neo are specially made for ryzen processors will ripjaws not work with ryzen secondly I have seen support sheet of gugbyte board it only shows 1 or 2 Gskill ripjaqas models supports and no support for flare or tridents and I Gskill website support sheet it shows all but of 64gb or 128gb kits

4. As there are many dual kits of rams available in 2x8gb but as board have 4 dimms and supports up to 128gb means 32gb in each slot if I use 8GB per slot then I can use only 32gb and if use 16gb then I will use 64GB

A. So I want to ask if I use 16X2 in one channel of flarex or ripjawax then later on in other 2 slots I can use 8x2 or 16x2 or 32x2 of corsair or Gskill ripjawasnor I have to go for same brand same model and same size to work with another slots ain future

B. Can I buy order from amazon or online same model same make same brand same seller Gskill Ripjaws 3200 16GB 2 piece without kit will it work in dual channel mode or individually as an I dividaudal ram of 16gb is Rs 5000 and a kits if 32 GB 16x2 is for Rs 14000 to 18000.... If I take 2 same ram of 16Gb then 32 GB will cost me Rs 10000 and I can save 5000 to 8000

you can run into problems mixing sets like this. Its much better idea to buy a set down the line that is the total you want to use, not buy 16gb now and later add more. If you want 32gb at a later time, buy a 32gb set and...

Sticks sold in sets have been tested to work with each other. Buying individual sticks is a gamble as they might cause errors if run in dual channel. Buying 2 sets of 16gb and running all 4 in PC can work or can create errors, its an unknown. Expensive gamble.

Colif thanx for replying and advising your precious knowledge and time

As per your advice

Sticks sold in sets have been tested to work with each other. Buying individual sticks is a gamble as they might cause errors if run in dual channel. Buying 2 sets of 16gb and running all 4 in PC can work or can create errors, its an unknown. Expensive gamble.

Yes you are right that the kits sticks are tested to work in dual channels..... I cant understand why the tested kits are more expensive Gskill Ripjaws kit for 16GB x2 is of Rs 16000 in India and individual stick of same model is Rs 5000+ Rs 5000 .....


I watched a video of user or comment in YouTube that individual stock of same make same model worked for him i don't know he lied or said true...but I want to try to test gamble carefully matching mofel serial if it worked I can save. Money and put on graphic card or board...
As I want to order from amazon from where I van return the individual sticks as per their return policy

As u said individual stick will give error if it worked in dual channel...... First i want to know that the error comes on the first day or it can come after few months...... Is there any risk of burning or damaging the slot or ram or any hardware problem if it dosnt worked....can we use Ram through BIOs setting dual channel mode and use single sticks slots in single channel modes
