Question Kingston Fury Beast versus G.Skill Ripjaws ?

[MousTea]

Hi all,

I am struggling on RAM choice between Kingston Fury Beast and G.Skill Ripjaws.

Both have the same specs, just different dimensions. However I really don't know which one to pick.
Which brand has the best reputation, which stick looks to have the better heatspreader?

Which one would you pick?

Thanks!

Got links to the ones you're looking at? Please add the make and model of the motherboard and the processor you're looking to pair the ram with.

Aesthetics is subjective. I could also point you towards Klevv's but some folks don't like their design, hence why I said it's subjective. It'll vary from one user to the next. Kingston used to be top dog, way back when. G.Skill are generally forgiving when it comes to tightening ram timings(i.e, further overclocking beyond what they're advertised to do).

Link to Kingston Fury Beast and link to G.Skill Ripjaws, it will be paired with Ryzen 5 5600 and mobo

Skip getting DDR4-3200MHz, get a tight timing DDR4-3600MHz dual channel ram kit instead. Should give you an uplift in performance while on that 5000 series AM4 platform.

Thankyou for your input but I don't think the Ryzen 5 5600 supports more than 3200Mhz RAM speed, or does it ?

 

[MousTea]

Does anybody know if it does support memory higher than 3200 Mhz?

 

[Nemesia]

Yes it does. I built Ryzen 3600 systems that was able to use XMP profile to 3600 Mhz on the RAM. If a 3600 can do it. Your 5600 can.

It should be able to.
For the heatsink it comes down to looks it's not even really needed.

I buy and recommend GSKILL but you might be surprised by how many different manufacturers use the same parts.
