Question Need advice on purchase of RAM Kit

[Blackdragonbird]

Hi, I plan to update my Ryzen 5 3600 for a Ryzen 9 5900x in the future, but before I do it, I pretend to buy a better cooler and fast memories to squeeze every last bit of performance of may actual processor.

Which of these 2 kits are a better investment?

If the 1st one, I pretend to get the 16x2 3600 cl14 and the 2nd one I'm looking at the 16x2 4133 cl?. The 1st one seems to be guaranteed B-Die, I will have to confirm with the seller, the 2nd one it's not, but it's faster and cheaper.

My actual motherboard is an MSI B450 Tomahawk Max.

My system will be used more for gaming and software development.

the second one is not faster because it has much higher latency (cl19)
B-die 3600 MHz with cl 14 latency are better quality and also faster .

Also. Don't use Ali express.

Ryzen is very sensitive to ram.
It also depends on fast ram for best performance.
Not all ram will work, and what works with a 3600 may not work with a 5900X.

To that end, I suggest you carefully select compatible ram.
One place to go is the motherboard ram support list for your motherboard:
https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/B450-TOMAHAWK-MAX/support#mem
As you can see, there are different lists depending on the cpu series.
You need to find a suitable kit that is supported in each table.

The QVL list may not have been updated.
If you have a ram kit of interest, go to the vendor web site and check that the kit is supported with both processors.

Is the only place where we can buy ram for good prices and ship to Brazil.
