Posted August 7, 2020 Hello guys and first of all thanks for your time! I currently have a 8x2, 2400Mhz RAM, 2600x, GTX 1070, AB350M-D3H-CF, 750W Right now I want to ugprade my RAM speed to 3200Mhz/3000, yet scared to purchase a model that my motherboard won't support, as Ryzen supported RAM's are kinda hard to find for my experience at least. Could you guys link me a rather cheap yet trustworthy model that is compatible with my motherboard? 8x2 would be awesome. Also how much of a difference would I notice in terms of performance? I've known Ryzen CPU's for their good synchronization with high RAM speeds, so I'm intrigued. Should I also consider upgrading my CPU if I upgrade my RAM? Would 3700x be a good investment or should I wait? Kinda low on budget.. I appreciate every bit of help in this thread. Really am thankful.

Would Corsair DDR 4 16G (8Gx2) 3200 CL16 VENGEANCE LPX Black CMK16GX4M2E3200C16 - be compatible with my motherboard and run it as 3200Mhz? Should I get it if I have the option to?

Doesn't work... Just bought it for 85$ and it doesn't fit. Tried multiple times, reconnected my RAM modules very easily yet these just don't fit. Can't even return it because it's "my mistake" that I bought it and it doesn't fit. I thought it would if you would say it'd.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure that you mean by that, but it should fit. unless there's a problem with the kit and/or dimm on the board. or you're just not installing them correctly, open the tabs then match the notch on the board and the notch on the dimm.
