When buying memory for a ASRock Z390 Extreme 4 motherboard, does it really have to be in ASRock's memory QVL supported list? Or, if I'm buying G.Skill Trident or G.Skill Ripjaws, am I going to be fine?
I am specing out a new system based on an ASRock Z390 Extreme 4 motherboard and I'm trying to find memory for it and I'm having trouble finding a desired memory product that I can find for sale that is listed on the supported Memory QVL.
I'm looking for DDR4-3200 2x16GB with good timings and in looking through the numerous choices offered by PCPartPicker, I can't find a single part number from that selection that is listed in the ASRock Memory QVL for that motherboard. When I try to go the other way and search newegg for the actual part numbers in the QVL, I find it very difficult to find any of those that are even for sale either. Something doesn't seem right here,
Is the ASRock QVL just not up-to-date with the currently "for sale" part numbers? Or, what am I missing? If I buy a name brand set of memory, is it likely to work with the ASRock Z390 Extreme 4 motherboard? Even if I want to overclock the memory a bit?
