Question BEST UPGRADES for asus rog strix b850-f gaming wifi am5 ddr5 atx

[matthewleigh21]

Hello, I am about to purchase this motherboard in about 2 weeks.
I am wondering what's the best (quality and performance) RAM upgrade I could get?

Asus ROG STRIX B850-F GAMING WIFI AM5 DDR5 ATX Motherboard​

Im willing to spend a bit
But only to "suit" this motherboard in terms of money/compatibility and performance and quality.

Thankyou in advance


Edit - Is the limit this board can take?



The Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB 256GB 6000MHz RAM

Where are you located? What is your budget for your memory purchase? What is your preferred site for purchase? What processor will you be pairing that motherboard with? 256GB? What will you tax the system with?

The sweet spot for any DDR5 platform is 2 stick, DDR5-6000MHz(or slightly higher) with tight latencies ram kit. In the event you move for an AM5 platform, you should look at ram kits that have AMD's E.X.P.O advertised on them.

On a side note, I've helped a friend build a system with Corsair's Dominator Titanium First Editions rated at 6600MHz and has been stable with that speed on an MSI B650i Edge WiFi board with a 7800X3D.

I did intense research.
AND found that
So, sorry for wasting your time
(I'm sure this will be helpful to someone)
I think it's close to the best (domestic) RAM you can get, there are about 4-5 more different brands with slightly differed specs.

Willing to save (Wide sort of budget, under $400 for strictly RAM)
I shop around, I do like local Australian shops also Amazon & Centre
I'm aiming for 256Gb's

EDIT - I'm going to have another look into the AMD "Version" of this RAM, Missed it.. The part about Intel or AMD

Also thankyou for the info about AMD's E. X. P. O
Ill check out and add here later for anyone else.
Oh and I'll probably be investing into the Ryzen 7 9800x3d
