I remember hearing a lot about memory clock speed problems with the ryzen platform when it first launched. I just got a ryzen 1600x and need some ram.

Nah.  You can stock run 4000 mhz ram if you want, but because of diminishing returns, I recommend getting 3000 mhz or 3200 mhz ram for ~$160 if you can find it that cheap :P https://pcpartpicker.com/product/tBH48d/team-t-force-night-hawk-32gb-2-x-16gb-ddr4-3200-memory-thwd416g3200hc16cdc01

Try using the PSU Tier List!

They are basically gone. These days it's the memory controller that dedicates the max speed of the ram (if the ram itself is rated for those high speeds).

It's not that common anymore that the ram limit is caused by the lack of optimization. A friend of mine has a system with 3000Mhz ram on launch, it barely ran 2666 stable (looser timings than it should). Now it runs 2933 stable with the right timings.

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

It isn't problem free, but I think it is comparable to Intel level of compatibility now. There will still be unknowns and some modules will not agree with some motherboards, especially for higher speed modules (3000+).

Main system: i9-7980XE, Asus X299 TUF mark 2, Noctua D15, Corsair Vengeance Pro 3200 3x 16GB 2R, RTX 3070, NZXT E850, GameMax Abyss, Samsung 980 Pro 2TB, Acer Predator XB241YU 24" 1440p 144Hz G-Sync + HP LP2475w 24" 1200p 60Hz wide gamut
Gaming laptop: Lenovo Legion 5, 5800H, RTX 3070, Kingston DDR4 3200C22 2x16GB 2Rx8, Kingston Fury Renegade 1TB + Crucial P1 1TB SSD, 165 Hz IPS 1080p G-Sync Compatible

just check the CPU and memory section of the forums there are still a shit loads of posting about memory, stability and overclocking related issues about ryzen.

most configurations should be fine now, but the IMC is still a pice of shit and you will end up with worse memory performance than the same kit on Intel but you can put pretty much anything in there and it will work

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

90% gone. Even on MSI boards. Make sure you get a good memory and a good motherboard

 

Don't buy Apple M1 computers with 8GB of RAM
