Can I run different b die with my current Trident Z RGB?

[ch3w2oy]

I have 3600 c16 Trident Z RGB (f4-3600c16q-16gtzr) currently with my Ryzen build. 

 

Can I run the 3200 c14 b die version at the same frequency and timings without any penalties? 

 

Thanks for the help!

I should be fine right? The 3200c14 is a little easier to find and a little cheaper..

Ooooh that's a tough question to answer.  I've seen some folks have success getting their 3200CL14 kits up to 3600MHz, but can't promise you will be able to.  And if you do it I can't say what voltage it would take and there's a good chance it's gonna take more than the sticks you currently have in and then you're gonna have to run all four at that voltage.  Which isn't a terrible thing as some folks run their b-die daily above 1.5V.  It's gonna be hit or miss I'm afraid.

Newegg is out of stock of my model but they have the 3200 c14 and is $6 cheaper..

They're not the same kits? Is 3600 c16 better binned? I only bought the kit I have because ryzen likes speed. I had the 3200c14 flarex before but I wasn't into overclocking like I am now.. 

 

What's a safe frequency I should test my kit at that the 3200c14 kit should run at? I don't want to go below 3466MHz for Zen 2. I gained a lot of performance with my 3700X from testing 2400 to 3600MHz. R20 went from line 4700 to 5100 pts.

@ch3w2oy I mean it doesn't hurt to try if you can afford to return them if it doesn't work out.  What is the exact kit you're looking at and the kit you have?  Maybe we can go the other way to find something that will work.  

 

Edit:

NVM you were polite enough to list it in the OP.

The more I look around the more I think you could get a 3200CL14 kit up to where you want it.  I'd say pull the trigger.
