Question Is this HyperX ram good?

[fer010122]

Hi guys, I'd like an oppinion on this HyperX Ram.

HyperX Fury DDR4 8GB 3200MHz (2×8) HX432C16FB3/8

I inted to use this ram with a Ryzen 3000, the ram has a:
CL(IDD) 17 cycles.
CL 16 cycles SDRAM
Default 2400MHz CL 17-17-17 1.2V
XMP Profile #1 3200MHz CL 16-18-18 1.35V
XMP Profile #2 3000MHz CL 15-17-17 1.35V

What profile is reccomended?

Eh...

It’s fine to work. AMD has a higher latency memory controller than intel and benefits from faster memory and lower timings. If you want 3200mhz I’d suggest CAS 14. Best speed IMO is 3600mhz at 16-16-16-36.

First thing is make sure your motherboard supports these speeds. X570 will but B450 is hit or miss.

If you already have the RAM use XMP profile 1.

Well if it hit 3200Mhz on XMP that should answer your question 👍 , did you try a stress test for Stability? Ryzen 3000 series improved RAM stability on previous models you were lucky to see 2999Mhz off 2400MHZ RAM.

The mobo is a gigabyte x570, but is there a perceptive difference between cl16 and cl14?

I'm assuming that this cl stuff is like ms in a monitor, you can't really tell the difference. And 16 to 14 doesn't seem like a big gap for me, but I know nothing about ram , It's a supposition

About 5% difference in FPS from 14 to 16 at 3200mhz. Up to you if that matters. Even bigger jump from 3600 to 3200mhz.

Well no difference for me, just like the ryzen 5 3600 to 3600X
