Great CPU and motherboard.

The sweetspot for RAM is 6000Mhz CL30.  What do you need 64GB for?

i like to have many things running in the background and i dont wanna need to upgrade it in the future, but if you think thats a bit much i could go with 32gb

64 is a fine size to have. It's more than most people, but IMO is no longer in the 'excessive' category. There's absolutely workflows that people have that will benefit somewhat from the higher capacity.

But I second the recommendation to try find slightly lower latency RAM, ideally 6000Mhz CL30 like @Hinjima says

BTW if you live near a microcenter, they have killer combo CPU+Mobo+RAM deals

I got a lot of things going on while playing CPU heavy games and I am completely fine with 32GB  

I think 64GB is incredibly overkill.

If you are buying now, Newegg got a good deal on 2x24GB 6000Mhz CL28 RAM, its a nice middle ground in terms of memory size.

But again, 32GB will do plenty for backround tasks, discord, youtube videos and more while playing video games.

 

If you live near a Microcenter, This is a good bundle.

I love Microcenter, I am so upset we don't have it here in Norway.

Unfortuantely, Microcenter only have 1 stick of 16GB RAM for the 9600x bundles.. Its so dumb.

You listed your budget in USD so we thought you were American.

Cool, good  I also use 32GB 6000Mhz CL30 with my Ryzen 9000 CPU.

The Gigabyte B850 EAGLE WIFI6E is also a decent motherboard that will handle a 9600x with ease.

It will even handle a 9800X3D if you want to upgrade later.

I am from Norway as well    God Kveld / Morgen.

I often use Komplett or Proshop for my purchases.  I find that Proshop has more niche products and a wider range of tech products, for example GPU's from more popular Asian brands.

I bought all my monitors, PSU's and CPU coolers/ thermal paste from Proshop.  Good delivery and quick customer support.

Usually competitive prices and lower than Komplett.

 

Absolutely, not many of us but we do exist!  

 

If you have any questions, worries or want my opinion on something, just send me a DM on the Forum as well and I will help you out.

Du også!  Tar kvelden nå snart   Natta.
