Help buying new ram?

Looking for 64gb ram to go with my Ryzen. I'm still rocking my 2133 LPX  C14 from a few years ago when I still used an 8600k. I hear some better ram will help out Ryzen a lot!

 

Any suggestions? I'd prefer to not have RGB, i'd rather spend the money on better ram.

 

Thanks!

here are some newegg results that would work. I included 2x16 and 2x32 kits since I don't know how many ram slots you have

 

I am running OLOy in my system without issue. I know a lot of people like Hyper x and Trident z

most of the motherboards are daisy chain, so the optimal setup is 2 dual ranked sticks, i bought 4x8 early when the taichi was still t-top and kinda regret it.

Wait, what does that mean? I don't understand this at all.

daisy chain boards, which is almost all x570 boards (even the t top boards got changed to daisy chain) are better with 2 sticks than 4, i can barely hit 3666 with 4 sticks while it's easy 3800 with 2, and zen 3 is optimal with dual rank setups, that means 2x16 overall is best.

I'm looking to do 64GB of ram, not 32.

 

Also, that's annoying. Why would they do that?

for 64gb i'd actually get 4x16, since 32gb sticks have worse timings. so 4 of these probably

2x32

in general just avoid corsair lpx and platinum for ryzen

Given that I have vengeance LPX right now, will I see a noticeable performance improvement?

 

Thanks!

at 2133 there's no problem, from 2133 to 3600 i guesstimate it's about a 30-40% improvement in cpu intensive tasks.

There's no problem? My LPX is actually running at 3200 MHZ even though it is 2133 C14 out of the box. I think my cas is 16?

if it's running at 3200 stable then there's no problem, if it's already 64gb i suggest just saving some money.

Been running 3200 MHZ for at least 3 years with no issues. Only 32gb though. But, judging by the cost of 4x16, that would be close to $600 in ram. Not sure that's worth it for me right now since I plan on upgrading to threadripper in the future & i'll probably want all new ram for that.
