Can someone please suggest a Ryzen specific RAM for this MoBo with 3600/3600X? I was thinking of getting Gskill Flare X (https://www.newegg.com/g-skill-16gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/N82E16820232767?Item=N82E16820232767 ) since they're marked as Ryzen specific on Gskill's website however I was concerned with the low popularity of the Flare X. I am looking for 3200 MHz only since that's the highest this MoBo supports and CL16 to save cost instead of CL14. 

I have that in one of my PCs. It's very good Micron E-die RAM, and it works quite well for the price. It's one of the best budget kits available for Ryzen 1000 or 2000. Ryzen 3000 doesn't have the memory controller issues of the earlier CPUs, and can handle the poorer quality RAM.

 

The next kit above this for performance I would suggest is this: https://www.newegg.com/g-skill-16gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/N82E16820232530 (Flare X 3200CL14, Samsung B-die) This kit is essentially the same stuff Gamers Nexus uses for their benchmarking. (though they use 2 kits of it)
