Thanks...

You should be fine.

 

It actually even says that it was tested with 2 DIMMs, so that means it was tested to work in dual channel.

 

The version would be the version of the RAM.

Hello folks have a nice day,

 

I ve found these decent rams to buy which are Corsair Vengeance 2*16 GB CL28 6000mhz. Their code is CMK32GX5M2B6000Z28.

 

I'm gonna buy B650 Tomahawk Wifi. The question is when i search for these rams in this mobo's compatibility list it says its compatible but it says single module. There are rams that are tested as dual in this list. So ı ve got confused. Do you think it will be compatible as dual? 

 

Also as you see at the picture, rams' version is written. I ve searched the rams at their original website but could not find their version. So how can i be sure these specific rams are compatible? Is the version matter? If it does how will i find the version name of my rams? 

 

Thanks a lot...

i would suggest you to change the kind of ram honestly, mostly because if you're not 100% sure what to buy there's the risk of wasting time, go for something that's 100% compatible in dual channel

That SINGLE is just saying that the RAM stick is single sided - all the RAM chips are on one side of the module. It isn't saying anything about using only a single stick.

The other reply got me confused really... So i guess you are saying i am good to go but since every module is single sided so why there are rams that says "Dual" on this list? 

 

Thanks...

With Corsair the version is indicating a different uhm, version, of the same model number. They list it on the QVL to say "that is what we tested", since if something significant changes between versions the test is no longer valid. I'm afraid you can't find the version of your Corsair memory until you buy it.

I can't see the column headers in your screenshot, but usually the number of sticks used relates to the ticks on the end.

Sending the column headers anyway for confirmation...
