Ram Upgrade for Threadripper 1920x

[Ninjasupahsquid]

Trying to do a ram upgrade for my Threadripper 1920x with a gigabyte aorus xtreme x399 board Currently has 16gb. Want to upgrade to 128 GB.

 

 

Found this kit on amazon

https://www.amazon.com/G-SKILL-TridentZ-PC4-25600-Platform-F4-3200C16Q2128GTZKY/dp/B01HSED106/ref=pd_ci_mcx_mh_mcx_views_0?pd_rd_w=FsmhC&content-id=amzn1.sym.bb21fc54-1dd8-448e-92bb-2ddce187f4ac%3Aamzn1.symc.40e6a10e-cbc4-4fa5-81e3-4435ff64d03b&pf_rd_p=bb21fc54-1dd8-448e-92bb-2ddce187f4ac&pf_rd_r=E21ZB0JT1KBXM37VRXEH&pd_rd_wg=fbXDo&pd_rd_r=e92ea579-fce4-4c11-abe9-e4ea8c956316&pd_rd_i=B01HSED106

 

It says its for intel x99. however from what I understand these are bog standard DDR4 3200 MHZ ram sticks that will work in any DDR4 Mobo. I do have another question. 3200 MHZ isnt a supported speed on pcpartpicker for this motherboard. but it says 3600 is. I'm assuming these will work just fine. 

 

any insight is helpful

 

Many Thanks,

That's on the seller. Probably that's how they marketed 4-sticks kits when X99 was the only consumer platform with quad-channel ram.

RAM is RAM is RAM. The more fancy you get (faster speeds, lower latencies, more dimms per channel), however, it will depend on your CPU and you motherboard whether you can actually run your kit at advertised speeds. This doesn't seem like a particularly demanding kit

Maybe it's just stating the maximum supported speed?

 

For what is worth, I ran a 128GB 3200MHz CL16 kit with a 1920x, only from TeamGroup and on a ASRock Taichi board (they may even be two 64GB kits), they continue to work fine with a 2950x now.

You can always check the QVL on your motherboard's manual (which will show very few kits) and webpage (which will be updated with more), but they tend to be much more limited than what you actually can use - they just don't test that many things.
