So i’m starting to build a new pc but i don’t know if the ram i want to get is compatible with my motherboard (Gigabyte B550 Aorus Elite) and my cpu (Ryzen 5 3600) so i’ve narrowed it down to two that many websites have said they are so here: TEAMGROUP T-Force Dark Z DDR4 16GB Kit (2x8GB) 3600MHz (PC4-28800) CL 18  TDZRD416G3600HC18JDC01

(Color: Red)

and

Crucial 16GB Ballistix DDR4 3600 MHz UDIMM Gaming Desktop Memory Kit (2 x 8GB, Red)

Don't worry about the QVL list for the board, worst case scenario you'll have to do some work to get to the advertised speeds but that's it.

though if you're only limited to these, get a 3600 cl16 kit, will perform better than the cl18 3600 kit.

PC: Motherboard: ASUS B550M TUF-Plus, CPU: Ryzen 3 3100, CPU Cooler: Arctic Freezer 34, GPU: GIGABYTE WindForce GTX1650S, RAM: HyperX Fury RGB 2x8GB 3200 CL16, Case, CoolerMaster MB311L ARGB, Boot Drive: 250GB MX500, Game Drive: WD Blue 1TB 7200RPM HDD.

 

Peripherals: GK61 (Optical Gateron Red) with Mistel White/Orange keycaps, Logitech G102 (Purple), BitWit Ensemble Grey Deskpad.
