Which memory to buy for Ryzen 5900x? I would like to go with 64GB because I do some GameDev as hobby in Unreal Engine 4. GPU is 3080 Ti, PSU RM850x and MBO is ROG STRIX X570-E GAMING. Thank you.
 
Solution
You should look at DDR4-3600MHz at the very least. If you can get kits with tight timings, that'd be a good plus point but DDR4-3600MHz is a good starting point.
Here is the G.Skill RAM Configurator for your motherboard:

https://www.gskill.com/configurator?page=1&cls=1529635169&manufacturer=1524725352&chipset=1603955103&model=1603956463&adSearch2=Capacity§64GB (16GBx4),Tested_Speed§3200MHz,Tested_Speed§3600MHz,

All of the kits listed have been tested to run at full speed with the motherboard so pick any one for great results.
that would be 3200 CL14 with 4x32GB dual sided, none at 3600
and with 1.45volts (no samsung B die?)
with prices like 600$++

Went with the memory in my sig (Corsair Vengeance DDR4 2400 Mhz (4x 32GB)), for a total of 128GB.
vengeance LPX 128GB 2400MHz CL16 costs 500$
gskill ripjaws V 128GB 2666MHz CL18 costs 420$
both have about same performance
