I must be missing something (ram comparison)

[daphatgrant]

I'm trying to decide on ram for a 3900X upgrade and have everything picked out other than the memory. I'm looking at the Asus X570 Hero that does support the Trident across the 4 dimms per Asus, the Corsair model doesn't show on their list

I'd like to stick to 32gb (4x8) of 3600-CL16 ram. I'd prefer to do 4 sticks for appearance.

After doing some research I think I've got more questions than answers.

What am I missing here?

Oh man get the Trident Z RGB.  The corsair is way over priced and what not.  Your rig will run fine on Triden Z  dual channel and you can fill the slots you pay more for a 64gb kit or by 2   32GB kits.  I suggest that actually so you save money.  Because as I said 64GB kits are expensive,, 32GB kit not so and sh*T.

the gskill ram is better even at the same price, and i've used their warranty twice, it's a different model but i'm running mine at 3933 16 16 16 36 atm.

It is not matter of better.  Its a preference.  In what way would it be better be it corsair or his g.skill kit we got for him.

Just get the cheapest memory at the speed/size/timings you want, they mostly all use Hynix and Macron chips anyway.... QVL is useless unless you don't know how to enter UEFI, Set XMP profile, timings and voltage of your ram stick

Thanks for the responses! I was imagining the performance to be similar but the price difference was quite surprising. I'm happy to save the $ along with getting a ram kit that is on the X570 Hero's ram sheet.
