Hi, i will soon buy Ryzen 3600 and B450 MBO (probably MSI B450-A PRO).
My question is should i buy new 2x8GB DDR4 3000Mhz RAM or try to OC mine Kingston FuryX 2x8GB DDR4 2133MHz?
Is it safe to do that? Is there a chance to get stable 3000MHz?
 
you cant oc memory, not in the traditional way.
memory that goes over base 2133MHz requires a specific XMP chip.
if the ram doesnt have that chip I.E is not advertised to go over 2133MHz its inprobable that youre going to be able to OC the RAM.

i would go for new RAM

Try as hard as I could and it wouldn't budge over 3600 Cl 16. It works great. It might go a bit over on 3800x I'm planning to get as soon as I get my mitts on it but for now not even a Hertz over or at lover CL. My test show very little gain over 3200MHz on 2700x.
 
Ok, tnx guys... i guess i can try and if don't work i can always buy new ram and sold this one...
BTW i will need help about that, i never OC RAM before...
