G.skill FlareX question

[Jake_156]

Is the ''G.SKILL Flare X Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2400 (PC4 19200) AMD X370 / B350 / A320 Memory (Desktop Memory) Model F4-2400C15D-16GFXR'' compabitable with INTEL? It says ''AMD compatible'' so i was wondering if that is just a extra feature or is it strictly AMD only. Any idea's?

If you mean "can i use that ram on a intel motherboard?" then yes that should work fine although i see only AMD motherboards under the QVL list ..... hmmm don't know what to make of that. It's XMP compatible which is more an Intel thing though, AMD uses more likeley DOCP for setting ram up the right way.
Can't see why it shouldn't work.You can ask G.Skill themselves by mail for instance (look at "Technical Support"),they also have their own forum.

Why do you want this ram particularly? There are more options ...

My friend just bought new stuff for his computer and he gave me these for free basically. So it would work with my motherboard? SI Z270 TOMAHAWK ARCTIC LGA 1151 Intel Z270 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 ATX Intel Motherboard

Updated my former post.

For the ram just try and see,can't see why not.

says its xmp

so yes should work

i think the for amd bit is just to say its certified to work in ryzen boards

as been plenty posts about how picky those boards can be with ram

alrighty xD I just didnt wanna fork anything up.___. Im in medical school so yea I know a few things about computers but not a whole lot. Ill let you know how it goes ;P

 

[mcnumpty23]

looks like its just a selling point aimed at ryzen users who are unsure what ram wont give them any problems

and just a polite reminder please moderate the use of expletives
