DDR4 32GB (2x16GB) PC3200 CL16 G.Skill RipJaws V black: This is the exact description I got from the computer store where I bought my hardware. This is the rest of my setup: AMD Ryzen 5 5600x 6x 3,7Ghz 35MB AM4 WAK Corsair iCUE H115i ELITE CAPELLIX 280mm MB ASUS ROG STRIX X570-E Gaming X570 AM4 WLAN+BT DDR4 32GB (2x16GB) PC3200 CL16 G.Skill RipJaws V black=> running only at 2133Mhz SSD Samsung 970 EVO PLUS M.2 1TB NVMe FRACTAL-DESIGN DEFINE 7 Black Dark-TG Fenster PCIe EVGA GEFORCE RTX 3070 XC3 Ultra Gaming 8GB GDDR6 After I built the system and set everything up I tried enabling the DOCP Profile in the BIOS -> Crash on POST (maybe? at least before the BIOS pops up) -> stuck in cycle of Blackscreens. Cleared CMOS-> now running at 2133 again. Checked the exact RAM sticks I got and see, that they are this type: F4-3200C16D-32GVK This type is not listed in the QVL What in the lords name can I do? heeelp meee I forgot this: The system was already running at 3200 MHz stable (I used it for a week), before I switched out my main boot drive. I have no idea why it stopped working and so I restored default values for the BIOS

I was planning to put new memory into my pc (G.SKILL Trident Z Neo 3600 16gb x 2), and it says its for Ryzen only. I have a intel i7 10700KF. Is this memory an option for me or do i pass this option up?

Hello guys, just wanted to know if there's anyway to check what type of Die RAM chips use, BEFORE purchasing and checking with apps like Thaiphoon Burner? Was looking at this kit for my Ryzen 9 5900X: G.Skill Trident Z Neo DIMM kit 32GB, DDR4-3600, CL18-22-22-42 (F4-3600C18Q-32GTZN). I believe the chips in this kit are Samsung, just not sure if it's E or B-Die..

Title really is the question, I currently have 2 TridentZ RGB ddr4 8Gb in my rig at the moment. I'm looking to add more memory into my setup. With the currently prices of Mem, i am looking at buying the Corsair LPX vengeance to add to it. Being a complete novice at building the technical aspect of computers, will I have any problems with running both of these at the same time running in dual channel? Thank you for any help that is given ! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all.

Hi all, I'm building a new PC for Christmas, and honestly forgot to check about RAM compatibility before ordering my RAM chips from G.skill... I know, dumb me. What I've read, is that for just classical gaming, it doesn't really matter but I've also read that it might be unstable if it is not listed as QVL. I bought G.skill trident Z Royal 2x16GB 4000Mhz CL 19 - 19 - 19 - 39 wondering if it will work with my ASUS ROG STRIX X570-E Gaming AM4 MOBO and Ryzen 7 5800x I already bought them, so if it won't click, then might as well return it and buy different RAM chips. Thanks in advance for your answers! Merry xmas y'all

Hy all. My build: MOBO:MSI X570 TOMAHAWK CPU:RYZEN 7 5800X RAM:G.SKILL TRIDENT Z 4133MHZ CL19 16GB SSD SAMSUNG 860 GPU: GTX 1060 (WAITING FOR UPGRADE) PSU:CORSAIR HX850 PLATINUM 850W CPU COOLER: BE QUIET DARK ROCK PRO 4 CASE: PHANTEKS P400S I begun with bios update to the latest one(bios flash back button).i assembeled cabel managed . Had to adjust bios settings to find not only uefi ssd s but csm also so i dont have to reinstall windows. I set to xmp1 and launched to windows. CPU idle is around 34-38celsius (ambient is 23)but for the smallest tasks it jumps up like to 50.(ryzen master temp read)while ingame for like 10minits temps are 60-70(Hw info read out) Prime95 on 16thread with max heat for maybe 2mins is throthling at 80celsius.with an agressive fancure 65celsius is 100% fan speed. Voltage jumping to 1.5V. Ram is on 2066mhz cpu-z thats ok but timing is wrong everything got +1.it should be cl19. But is is cl20 and so the other numbers.Need to check votage i forgot it. (Ram tuning is new for me) I would like to find some proper ram setting i cant figure what to change so i dont do any harm. Iam afraid of the temps on the cpu i upgraded from asus board i5 4690k all core oc 4.5ghz with 1.24V it was aircooled with thermaltake frio 2fans never got above 60celsius. When i figured out the ram problem and the heat on the cpu i will try some cinebench. But first could you suggest some places where i can find a good ram setting for dumies site or just something i can work with? Also if you know a good MSI bios setting or what to change so my core speed and voltages dont jump around.This is my 1msi board i like so far the asus more the bios was easy to overclock ,but the msi got those good vrm and it was cheaper too. I tried dram calculator ehh it wont work for me for now. I finished the build Yesterday like 11pm, so iam writing this from work if i get home i can put more data if you need something. So far if someone solved issues like this please feel free to post solutions. Thx .

Hi, I bought the Corsair Vengeance 2x8GB 3200MHz ang tried to pair it to Gskill Ripjaw 2x8GB 3200MHz and I can't make it to work 100% stable. It is only working stable without XMP or with the speed of 2166MHz. Here's my specs: R7 2700x OC'ed to 4GHz RTX 2070 Super B450M Mortar Max 750Watts Sseasonic Focus Here's what I did so far: Changed the DRAM Voltage to 1.40 Changed the frequency from 3200MHz to 2800MHz Reseat all ram Memory Diagnostic (No issues found) BIOS reset XMP 1 and 2 The nearest configuration that it works for 1 hour without restarting is changing the DRAM voltage to 1.40 with the frequency 3000MHz, but when I remove the RAM, the kits are too hot. Thank you in advance.

Hello, I am currently using an R7 2700X with 8GB 2400MHz/CL16 RAM (PPP link). I'm currently looking for faster RAM to buy during Black Friday. I read that 3200MHz is the sweet spot for my CPU and found some 3200MHz 14CL - B-Die sticks. However, I've also realized that Ryzen 5000 is best with 4000MHz ram. I plan to get a Zen4 (6000?) CPU, but now I'm afraid that 3200 MHz will be too slow, and I don't want to upgrade my RAM twice. With that being said, should I just get 4000MHz RAM, or should I just stick with the 3200MHz RAM I found (and maybe overclock)? Also, what are the best options for 4000MHz sticks? I am willing to overclock if I can find a good tutorial, so B-die will be fine. Any help is appreciated, thank you! P.S. - My motherboard is more on the budget side, so I don't know it will be even be able to support 4000MHz ram. What I might do is just buy the faster RAM and run it at lower speeds, and then when Zen 4 comes out I will probably go get the CPU and a new mobo that supports it. Please let me know if this is a good idea as well.

As the title suggest, any help would do. But I've tried DRAM Calculator and it always fail to post. even changing one timing (CAS) from 18 to 16 causes a black screen. I know I can do it step by step but at least I would like some head start. The dimms I'm using is GSKILL TRIDENT Z NEO RGB 32GB DUAL 3600 CL18 F4-3600C18D-32GTZN https://www.gskill.com/specification/165/326/1562840525/F4-3600C18D-32GTZN-Specification It's a dual rank and hynix CJR/DJR die unfortunately. Rest of the specs: Ryzen 5 3600 (4.375 at 1.2v) Asus B550 Strix-F Gaming Wifi Included is the screenshot of Thaipoon the the DRAM Calculator result. Any help would be appreciated especially if you have the same exact die, can i have your settings?

Which Memory do I pick for gaming Ryzen 5800
Sull3h posted a topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
I just need help I plan on building a new high end gaming pc for gaming and eventually streaming. I plan on getting a rtx3070 and a Ryzen 5800x (if that cpu is overkill let me know, happy to save money) -
I recently got new ram for my computer but i noticed that on one of the ram sticks it seems that one of the lights in it have stopped lighting up. Things i have tried Switching around the ram in the slots Re-installing RGB software What i have noticed is that it could possibly be an issue with the DIMM slot since the issue seems to only happen on that one slot any ideas what i can do to try and fix this? A picture of the dark spot Relevant hardware installed G.Skill 64GB (4x16GB) DDR4 3200MHz CL16 Trident Z Neo ASUS ROG CROSSHAIR VIII HERO X570 AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 3.8 GHz 70MB Any ideas what could be causing this?> The issue always happen on this one DIMM slot so I'm worried that it might be an issue with the motherboard The ram gets detected in bios will all 64GB with 3200MHz Speed and stuff.

I have been having a REALLY hard time with this build. I have an ASROCK X570 phantom Gaming X + Ryzen 9 3900x + G.Skill F4-3600C16D-32GTZNC. After puting everything together I had no problems. Configured XMP Profile on UEFI and every was 100%. Then after reading some more, I found out I needed to have Infinity Fabric at the same speed as Ram. I went into UEFI configured the Fabric to be at the same speed as the RAM, and all was fine.... After updating to UEFI 3.2 I saw that CPU Power, SOC and TDC were not shown anymore... I ran it like this for 2-3 months. I got a Noctua NH-D15 And realised that the temps were around 50-60 on idle. After digging a bit I read that it would be better to fix the CPU Voltage at 1.35, so it runs cooler and better. I have been trying to do it on the UEFI, but, even when I have it in the UEFI, the system goes over it. Most times at 1.42 and sometimes getting to 1.54. Before I found the solution to this Voltage thing, one day I shut the PC down normaly. Turn it on the next day and when I get to windows I get a Blue screen after 30 secs. Tried going into windows 2 or 3 times and same happened. Went into UEFI, and saw the RAM was back to stock 2133mhz. XMP was active in UEFI but the ram did not go into the correct speeds. Now I cannot have the 2 stick of ram on the MOBO because i get blue screens... I do not know what to do anymore.... RAM was in the compatibility list of the MOBO, but in 2 and 4 sticks of 8GB not 16GB, but, why would it start acting up after 2 or 3 months after running? Should I replace the ram or try something else? Cheers.

Hi, quick question about ram compatability... I have G.Skill TridentZ RGB DDR4-4133 C17 DC - 16GB, (Double this, so 8x4 sticks) and ASUS ROG Strix Z490-E GAMING. Checking the compatability with the motherboard it says it's combatible with 2x8 of this specific ram. (Model: F4-4133C17D-16GTZR) Can i assume it's fine to use 4x8 of this ram as well? Since there physical space on the motherboard for it. I'm having all kinds of different crashing issues, so i'm starting to wonder.

After installing additional RAM sticks (2 additional sticks identical to those previously installed), the pc will enter a "boot loop" when powered on or when shut down. It does not occur when restarting Windows via the start menu. While in the "boot loop", the pc will power on for a few seconds, then power off momentarily, then power on again, repeating without video output. The pc can be turned off by holding the power button or turned on by holding the reset button while the computer is powering on. When powered on this way, the UEFI splash screen appears twice instead of once and the settings are reset. I have attempted the following solutions with no change in pc behavior: Updating UEFI to latest version Reseating all RAM sticks Reverting to old RAM configuration Only using new RAM CMOS reset via pin short CMOS reset via battery removal (Measured ~3.15V) Windows Safe Start System Specifications: Motherboard: ASRock AB350M Pro 4 (BIOS Ver 6.6) CPU: AMD Ryzen 3600 3.6Ghz (no overclock) Memory: 4x8GB G.Skill Aegis DDR4 3000Mhz CL16-18-18-38 1.35V Video Card: MSI GeForce 1060 3Gb Operating System: Windows 10 Home 10.0.18362 Build 18362 Hard Drive: Western Digital 1TB SSD (Boot Drive): Crucial BX300 120GB PSU: EVGA 430W 80+ White The pc is workable since I can boot it by holding the reset button, but I'd rather not have to go into UEFI settings to get full performance out of my RAM every time I boot up my system from a power off.

I would say for about 6 months or so. Windows will stop responding or hang. Sometimes Windows Update helps and sometimes it doesn't. Though we all know Windows Updates cause more harm than solve haha. Usually a restart will make it okay for a bit. The Ram was previously used in an Intel sytem with an i7 6700 and moved over at beginning of year to the above computer config. Things worked for the most part. I had really bad windows issues( downloading caused system lag/freeze up until download finished, occasional lag of mouse/system) that I solved with a Windows reinstall and thought that would be the end of it. However overtime I have been getting windows explorer hangups and chrome not responding and most recently in last month or 2 blue screens. I first noticed this when trying to play Hitman 2. It would sometimes just not start or it would let me play for around hour on average before blue screening. Leading to a error in page fault (I forget the exact error) that pointed to memory issues in event viewer. I "solved" the blue screening by lowering my ram from 3000 to 2800mhz and the other day I tried to bring it back to 3000mhz after a windows update to see if things got better...well it blue screened upon login screen and/or login with same page fault issues. This happened 3 times in row. Wasn't stable again until dropped to 2800mhz. I decided to check if a bios update was available for my board, and it was. Though it didn't quite fix any issues I am having it did mention better overclocking support for ram. I noticed at this time that they do recommend not updating the Bios if you are using a first gen Ryzen CPU though. I can't remember what for but I needed the latest BIOS update for something important to work on my machine awhile and had no choice to upgrade version 2.90 and this version also states not recommended for first gen processors. I figured since I already had a non-recommended version that I might as well update and so I did get the latest. I noticed a couple things, timings were MUCH better in bios and predetermined more accurately. Even if the board isn't applying the correct main ones (example, it says the current CAS is 16 while it states in the field that it would be set to 15, the actual CAS of my ram). Not sure if it was because of these better timings but now Windows would boot at 3000mhz but blue screened with same page fault issue after about half hour. Again, only being long-term stable after dropping ram to 2800mhz. However, I noticed during all of this that while AsRock supports first gen Ryzen processors they don't even have a QVL list for ram for first gen CPUs. Checking the list for second gen CPUs I notice my ram isn't listed either. Checking some other board for my specific ram modules "F4-3000C15D-16GTZR", I did not find them listed. However, weirdly I found the same models except the CAS latency being 16 CAS instead were listed on some QVLs (and here I thought I was doing myself a favour getting the better CAS Latency). Additionally, I ran only 2 sticks for awhile with little issue and I noticed that some ram module have support on a QVL, BUT they don't support the full 4 stick configuration. Beginning of the year I upgraded from 16GB to 32GB for multitasking and creative work. I am beginning to think that this introduced some of the issues since I regularly use over 16GB of ram. If the board can't support all 4 properly this would explain the page fault issues. QUESTION 1 I have not had problems with the RAM itself before and mostly been stable until recently and most issue with Hitman 2. G.Skill has typically been reliable for compatibility, however I have noticed that AsRock's spport for ram for even even second and third gen processors is really poor. So would you say that it is my board support/compatibility that is causing issues? First Gen CPU issues? or is my ram just not compatible with Ryzen and most boards? All of the above? I am not used to really needing to worry about ram compatibility and this is unfortunately either hard or expensive to test for. QUESTION 2/EVENTUAL SOLUTION I intend to build a new computer based on either 3000 or 4000 series Ryzen with an x570 board (more than likely the Crosshair) in the next 6 months. I unfortunately can't afford the money or the time to invest in the board currently and rebuild the machine. I would hate to replace the ram now if it would work well later down the line with improved ram support from 3rd gen and later processors. However, ram has been dropping price and I could replace my 4 8GB sticks with 2 16GB sticks. This would allow me to upgrade further later, as well as, bring the working ram back down to 2 sticks which seems most compatible with majority of boards. Not to mention the speed increase from 3000 to 3600mhz (though, more than likely wouldn't work with current setup, would be good for future). Hopefully enabling me better stability on current board/cpu until I can upgrade. However, I would hate to buy new ram that I ultimately don't need to find it it's just really a bad combination of hardware and poor support between the board and 1700x. Has anyone else had issues with this particular model (F4-3000C15D-16GTZR) of G. Skill Ram? I thought i was getting the better modules but it seems like its less popular to be supported and people even talk about the CAS 15 modules on forums less than they do the CAS 16 Modules. Is it a strong chance it is the ram and I would be able to solve my problem by buying 32GB of a compatible ram that will be future proof?

Had built a 3990x system on Asus Rog Strix TRX40-E, just received the 2666mgz 32Gbx8 256 GB kit (F4-2666C18Q2-256GVK) from G.skill which is mentioned in the QVL for the Mobo , a month for the import and they are finally here! Issue comes out to be initially had put 2 ram stick of 3000mhz on the DIMM slots on right of the strx4 socket and one 2400mhz in one of the 4 slots the left of the socket. Used it, tested it, worked fine. Suddenly showed up a "MEMORY:C5 ERROR" on the mini display of the Asus Rog Strix Trx40-E. Now that I looked into it with new rams, whenever I insert any ram on the left dimm slots and try to boot, just the C5 ERROR shows up and doesn't even boot Tried every possible combination: 1. Bios is flashed to latest version 2. Tried resetting CMOS 3. Tested RAMs all are in working condition 4. Also tried the ram positioning. As soon as I put a single ram stick in the primary ram slot of the left channel, the error comes up. ANY SOLUTION TO THIS WOULD HELP. RIGHT NOW STUCK WITH ONLY 128GB of RAM in the right channel.

Hi! I've recently ordered 2 bars of RipJaws Series 4 D4 (2x16go) memory but there's a note (that I haven't noticed cause I'm dumb) that says that this ram kit isn't compatible with AMD cpu, though some customers reviews said that it worked fine with their Ryzen CPU. Could someone provide me a clear answer or some feedback? BTW my CPU is a Ryzen 5 1600 AF with Zen+ architecture. (ram link : https://www.ldlc.com/fiche/PB00232232.html#descriptif)

I'm currently trying to figure out what die my memory uses. I have G.Skill's Ripjaws V 3200MHz (F4-3000C15D-16GVKB). I would appreciate if someone were to just tell me, but it would be more helpful to know where to find this information (I will need to find this info for other RAM kits soon). I didn't see it listed anywhere on G.Skill's product page. Thanks for the help

Hello, I have an Acer Aspire A515-51G and I want some opinions before I upgrade my RAM. Right now the laptop has 8GB (4GB soldered on motherboard and 4GB switchable). I'm thinking of removing the 4GB and placing a 16GB, in order to have 20GB (which is the maximum supported for this motherboard). Current RAM run at 2133Hz with CAS 15 and runs at Dual Channel. My two final options are Corsair and G.Skill 1) https://www.corsair.com/eu/en/Categories/Products/Memory/Mainstream-Memory/Corsair-Memory-16GB-(1x16GB)-DDR4-SODIMM-2133MHz-C15-Memory-Kit/p/CMSO16GX4M1A2133C15 [70€ where I live - ~79$] 2) https://www.gskill.com/specification/2/197/1537264131/F4-2133C15S-16GRS-Specification [58€ where I live - ~65$] My quenstion is do you think that I'll face any problems if I place a 16GB with the current 4GB soldered. Because they won't run at Dual Channel anymore (it's called flex-mode if I'm not mistaken). Will it be better to have 8GB Dual Channel or 20GB Flex-Mode? Lastly, do you suggest one of the two manufacturers, did anyone faced a similar problem? Thanks in advance, Panagiotis, Greece

I've been using 32 GB (8GBx4 Dual Channel) of Corsair Dominator DDR4-3600 C16-18-18-36 (https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categories/Products/Memory/DOMINATOR-PLATINUM-RGB/p/CMT32GX4M4K3600C16#tab-tech-specs) that I purchased directly from Corsair, however I had to file for an RMA due to a faulty DIMM. These things happen, so I'm not going to knock them for the one bad DIMM. The cost for this was $470. In its place, I purchased G.Skill Trident. Microcenter near me only had a 16GBx4 of DDR4-3600 C16-19-19-39 according to the box (https://www.gskill.com/specification/165/326/1562839473/F4-3600C16D-32GTZN-Specification according to the site) for a total of 64GB costing only $360. Personally, I think 64GB is waaay overkill, however CL16 is worth the extra money - at least until DDR5 comes out. I do get subjectively fine performance from Dominator and G.Skill, they both benchmark around the same, I like both aesthetics (but having most of my hardware connected via iCue is very convenient) and 32GB is more than enough. However, I'm getting double the capacity for over $100 less. My questions is: Do I stick with the Devil I know for the extra $100 and half the capacity; or just keep the 64GB of G.Skill, save the money, and work with something I'm not as familiar with and benchmarks around the same as 32GB of Dominator? For reference: I'm running an Asus X570 Crosshair 8, Ryzen 3900x, and an Aorus 2080 Super OC in a Dynamic O11 with 10 fans total and a 34" ultrawide.
