Can you please help me choosing my ram ?

[guilherme_furlanzinho]

Hello everyone,

I'm from Brazil and in the end of the year I'm going to Paraguai (thanks God for that), which has lot of hardwares for half price (compared to Brazilian prices), so I would ask your help to choose what ram below is best (I can afford all of each listed below):
1 - https://www.comprasparaguai.com.br/memoria-crucial-ballistix-ddr4-16gb-2666mhz_16701/
2 - https://www.comprasparaguai.com.br/memoria-patriot-viper-16gb-ddr4-3000-rgb-2x8gb__2332391/
3 - https://www.comprasparaguai.com.br/mem-ddr4-16gb-2666mhz-corsair-vengeance2x8gb-rgb-led-cmr16gx4m2a2666c16-black__2051636/
4 - https://www.comprasparaguai.com.br/mem-ddr4-16gb-2666mhz-corsair-vengeance2x8gb-rgb-pro-cmw16gx4m2a2666c16-preto__2311682/

The one below is more expensive compared from all above, do you think would worth it ?

Please let me know your comments and also if you can rank them to help me, so that I have a 2nd option in case they don't have the one I want when I go there to buy, thanks guys!

Before trying to tell you which memory is best for you, we would need to know what your platform is and what your hardware specs are.

What is good/best for one generation isn't going to be the same for a different one. What works well on Intel is not going to be the same as for AMD or Ryzen.

Full hardware specs for the current, or intended build, are necessary.


In GENERAL terms, G.Skill or Corsair are usually better choices, but that's not true in every situation. It depends on which modules are being compared.

Hello dear,

Well noted, totally understand what you mean, below my future specs:
Cpu: Ryzen 7 1700 (wraith spire cooler)
GPU: Rx 580 GB sapphire (black one)
Mobo: I'm still deciding which version of b350 I'm going to get, if you have any advise will be very welcome
Ram: Still deciding
HDD: 2x500gb
SSD: Will probably be a crucial CT250MX500SSD1

Wait for your comments =)
If you need any further information please let me know.

K regards

First, I would advise against going with a B350 board. The B450 and X470 motherboards are significantly better in every way. Better power phase and power delivery, much better memory compatibility which has been an issue with boards prior to B450 and X470 even with the storm of bios updates that have improved things to some degree but not entirely.

As for the memory itself, I'd stick to something that is user verified as outlined on THIS list:

Well noted my friend, so what Mobo below would you advise me ?
1 - https://www.comprasparaguai.com.br/mb-gigabyte-am4-b450m-ds3h-hdmidviusb31m2__2308009/
2 - https://www.comprasparaguai.com.br/mb-am4-asus-prime-b450m-a-m2vgadvihdmiusb31lansomddr4__2282984/
3 - https://www.comprasparaguai.com.br/placa-mae-biostar-6-b450mh-amd-soquete-am4_20459/

About that list sorry but I didn't understand anything, which one is good ?

 

[Darkbreeze]

All are good on that list, for Ryzen. It just matters how much you want to pay (For higher quality and tighter timings) and what speed you want. What is your budget for memory, how much memory are you looking to get and what speed are you wanting?

The Asus Prime B450-A is the best of those boards IMO.

 

[guilherme_furlanzinho]

Bro I'm really sorry but the majority of that list is only g.skill And I didn't understand the info in there so that really didn:'t help me understanding which one I should consider

 

[Darkbreeze]

These should work with that B450 motherboard.

[guilherme_furlanzinho]

Thanks a lot bro!

Also it will work fine with the ryzen 7 right ?

 

[Darkbreeze]

Yes.
