Hello Guys this is my build im going to buy, just in case to know the compactibility, Please ignore the pricing it's quiet different in my country

 

The main question is about the RAM Memory, here in Indonesia the pricing is so bad

i want to have total of 64 gigs of ram by combining 2kits total of 4 stick of ram (4x16GB) ( coz i do rendering and stuff and also a bit gaming), i want it to be 3600Mhz at ryzen sweetspot XMP or i could learn manual overclock

 

the option i have here is so limited

the only good option of Gskill RAM Memory here (2x16GB B-die) is 

 

F4-3600C17D-32GTZR that current pricing is around 200$

F4-3600C16D-32GTZN with 120$ more cost than CL17 ( 320$)

 

i prefer to buy it in my country here because the retailer warranty.

 

in therm of performance price wise choice (at least ryzen sweetspot) which RAM kit should i choose?

could i get ryzen sweetspot ?

This is definitely not Samsung B-die, the tRP and tRCD rating should be much lower if it is, i.e. no larger than 16 at 3600MHz.

Tbh Samsung B-die is really heavy on the memory controller, and at 64GB setup even the worse 3600MHz kit regardless of die type or even the 3200MHz CL16 Crucial kits are going to be bottlenecked by the memory controller before the stick themselves. In other words, you dont need better kits because capacity is the largest problem

thank you for the answer, ohh i tought it's b-die from this b-die finder https://benzhaomin.github.io/bdiefinder/  and this discussion comment

 

All G.Skill 2800 MHz+ 16GB modules are Samsung B-die.
F4-3600C17Q-64GTZR consists of 4x F4-3600C17-16GTZR modules so it's the same as 2x F4-3600C17D-32GTZR kits. That's why I don't list 64GB kits because it is the same as 2x 32GB kits (at least for G.Skill).

 

G.Skill Trident Z RGB: F4-3600C17D-32GTZR (2x16GB 3600) has Samsung B-Die! http://rgho.st/6gHMnCdSy.view

 

 

could you confirm it ? that this is b-die or not, im still not sure

 

so i need to choose between high speed memory ( make the most performance of ryzen )  or large memory ?

Outdated. Hynix and Micron only started shipping their high frequency capable dies (beyond 3466MHz) since very late 2018 to mid 2019, before that Samsung B-die are everywhere but after that, most are Hynix CJR (since Micron seems to supply less to other brands). Btw the other Samsung dies listed, E-die is another high frequency legend (but runs loose tRP and tRCD like CJR and Rev E) while D die clocked poorly and discontinued before Skylake even is a thing. As a result, only common in X99 builds.

Yes. Going fast and carrying a lot don't mix, just like a vehicle with only 4 wheels. You could choose to make a fast race car or a van capable of moving everything you have, just not both.

Thanksss.. that information really help me a lot, so id prefer not choose both of them coz im goin for 64 gigs, like i could just choose low speed one like 2400Mhz ? it doesn't matter coz i need to choose large capacity module or ryzen sweet spot  ?

That's too extreme, Just because 3600MHz is unlikely to run without some effort doesn't mean you should give up speed entirely.

 

Best priced 2x16GB kit seems like 3000MHz CL16 and 3600MHz CL18 ones, the 3000MHz ones are good enough for non-tweakers but the 3600MHz CL18 should put you away from the much weaker Hynix AFR and MFR, leaving only CJR DJR, maybe JJR, and Micron Rev E to deal with.

okaay ill go with the cheaper 3600mhz cl17 the price is same with 3600mhz cl18 here with tighter timing, thankss for all the information.
