Does anyone know if the motherboard runs these RAM sticks at full 3200mhz speed since these ram sticks are not mentioned in compatibility list?

Also what is your experience with this mobo if you own it? I'm thinking of getting it with Ryzen 7 1700 CPU.

Yeah, they're compatible.
Sounds like a good combo.

Gigabyte just wrote back to me today and said that they suggest against using those RAM sticks because they weren't tested and can't guarantee full 3200 mhz speeds.

Have you actually built a PC with this exact RAM model and motherboard that you can guarantee they'll work at proper speeds?

Yes I have, our Ryzen test system at the store is currently using a 2x16GB kit of Ripjaws V at 3333MHz.
Runs very well.
If you're not confident in those, Corsair's LPX kits are also fantastic, if you want to be 100%, they're probably slightly more reliable too.

Gigabyte's probably playing it safe for a while since they'd be required to go through the whole verification process again, and are waiting for optimization for lesser quality RAM to be rolled out before doing them as one batch.
They can't be held liable that way if they do guarantee it and it isn't working, otherwise it's a huge legal thing.

Unfortunately I'm very limited with money and will go with the before mentioned RAM sticks, can't spend more on LPX kit. Will trust you on that one. Thanks for the tips!

That build is not allowing me to run the ram at full speed, only 2133 MHz. If I try to overclock my ram any higher then that my computer just crashes a few times before booting into the bios. I'm going to check on my bios version, maybe it is outdated. I just got my parts though, don't know if new Motherboards come with an old bios but...
