Hi all,
Every 4 or 5 years I put a new PC together for myself. This time I have chosen Asus CH VIII Wifi mobo with AMD 3950x processor. As for RAM, first I chose (and bought) the Corsair Vengeance Pro [ CMW32GX4M23200C16] 3200MHz / CL16. without much thought. Then, I came to realize almost every thread I read or YT video I watched, in it they used Trident Z RGB (I want RGB RAM). That got me curious. On top of that, then, I got introduced to the whole Samsung B-Die chips 'adoration.' Now three questions:
A. Does it matter if the RAM is not B-Die, if I am not into overclocking things to the max?
B. Why do most go with Trident Z RGB over Vengeance RGB Pro? (Is it just a matter preference or G.Skill is just plain and simple better?)
C. Does it matter whether the Trident Z is the Neo version or Not, if I don't mind doing some BIOS tweaking myself?
As a side note, I know - more or less - with most RAMs, I have to either go with a CAS latency of 14, or higher clock speeds than 3200MHz as to get Samsung's B-Die chips. Unfortunately, where I live , so far I haven't been able to find either. Many Thanks.
