Good cheap RAM for overclocking Ryzen CPU

[norimacek]

Hi all,

Is 8GB Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4-3000 DIMM CL15 Dual Kit OK choice to use for overclocking Ryzen CPU (1200 or 1600, haven't decided yet) on MSI B350 TOMAHAWK motherboard? Do you have any better suggestions in 70 € (80$) price range?

You are very incorrect with your statement about overclocking and Ryzen. All Ryzen CPUs can be overclocked. Read the Ryzen 3 article from today. Even the lowest end 1200 has an unlocked multiplier. The B350 motherboard should allow overclocking.
The LPX memory has not been the best choice for Ryxen. The most stable RAM is either one of the G-Skill Ryzen specific models or RAM that is specifically listed on the motherboard manufacturer's website.
