Avoid this one, it's the worst.

This is the best performance out of all of these, plus the tRCD 38 means it's likely to be Hynix based and overclock well if you want to give that a shot in the future, though that isn't guaranteed.

If you wanna save a buck however, this is the kit I'd aim for. 5600 CL36 isn't the fastest thing in the world, but if you need room in the budget for something else this kit is OK.

I'm going to buy a asus proart b760 creator and i wanted to buy a corsair vengeance ddr5 ram kit from a friend but then someone told me they were unreliable, inconsistent and crashes your pc.

Is that true and what other dimms should i use then

 

Its a 2x16 ddr5 kit

DDR5 is very reliable!  Built over 100 systems with DDR5 and not a single issue.
That being said, I never went above 6000Mhz CL30 as there is deminishing returns after this and 6000Mhz  CL30 is very stable.

What speed bin were you looking at? That matters significantly more for stability than who made it or anything like that. 

 

DDR5 itself is fine, the only issue with it is that there are a lot of high speed kits that exist that don't actually work at high speeds because of CPU limitations.

OK, none of those are fast enough to run into issues. 

 

As for which one to get, I'd try to aim for a 6000 CL30 or 6400 CL32 kit instead if that could be an option. Otherwise, it would depend on the tRCD for which kit I'd get. The 6000 CL36-36-36 kits perform quite a bit better than the 6000 CL36-44-44 or 6400 CL36-48-48 kits. 

 

Another option since you're buying them used is to look at the version number on the kit. I can go into details as to why if you're curious, but the TL;DR is if the version number starts with a 5 (I.E. ver. 5.43.13, 5.43.01, 5.33.01, etc.) it will do 6400 CL32 with minimal effort if you want to manually overclock it.
