Guys
Looking to upgrade my build and need a bit help with choosing best Ram to accommodate the upgrade.
PC case is air cooled with sufficient flow to cool under medium OC mode. Im not expert OCer but I can fiddle in BIOS if needed.
PSU is 750W XFX full modular gold rated.
GPU is unimportant. I rather have fast system where only GPU is bottleneck then other way around. Possible upgrade in near future (after xmass).
Im getting:
Ryzen 7 2700X
MSI B450 GAMING PRO CARBON AC (https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/B450-GAMING-PRO-CARBON-AC.html) - love the look. As mentioned before I dont look in to extreeme OC.
I have around 200 pounds for RAM - preferably something simple with not too much hassle 16Gb is size.
Mobo supports 3466 with OCso I thought the Sniper X by G.skill but these are hard to come by right now. Any alternative stics?

Full ATX
2700x because its fastest for the money. I do not want Intel chips in my house XD. Funny saying that having mobo with intel LAN lol.
Used primarily by my son for gaming, streaming and editing.
And yes- I was looking at the 3200 piece - I can easy get it to the 3466 the board can manage through little OC.

would a 3600 ram work even though the mobo supports is just 3466 max oc from a-xmp?
this is the specs for memory:

1866/ 2133/ 2400/ 2667Mhz (by JEDEC)
2667/ 2800/ 2933/ 3000/ 3066/ 3200/ 3466 MHz (by A-XMP OC MODE)
