Best ram speed/timing for x570

[xtr650]

Hey everyone, I've been researching a lot about ram lately with my new build. (x570 3950x) I've come across the different dies, B-die, C-die, etc. I'm still a little confused about timings, latency, speed etc, is 3600mhz c18 worse than 3400mhz c16? If price isn't a problem other than something crazy $1000 for a stick, what would be "Best Ram" on the market currently matched with a ryzen and x570 board.

 

Thank you

Thank you

With my 2700X https://www.newegg.com/g-skill-16gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/N82E16820232194

Used in my 8700K on Maximus X does 4000mhz CL 16. 

 

Yea, it's only 16GB I know. But the more memory quantity in GB or sticks, you start loosing frequency ability on Ryzen memory controller. (Intel's too) Just a heads up there.
