Easy answer. Option A, faster speed, lower latency

The lower the CAS the lower the latency.  So option A is better in every single way, essentially.  Here is some more info:

RAM A has both has higher bandwidth (frequency) and lower response time (Cas latency)? literally no reason not to get option A unless its significantly more expensive and out of your price range.

3000/15 = 200

2666/16= 166,625

 

Higher is better.

Ryzen likes some ram chips more than others, so check compatibility of the specific type if you fancy pushing the ram clock up.

Ryzen is known to prefer a certain Samsung chip series if you want higher clocks, although I don't recall exactly which that was. Would need to find that, and what those modules actually use.

Meal deal and a share box... dude your bawlin.. I love a 20... but couldn't stomach a meal deal on top... now you got me hungry..

 

What were we on about again? Ram?

To the OP, I have Corsair Vengance 3200 sticks in my ryzen build and cannot get them to the rated 3200 speed. I believe these are NOT samsung sticks though. If I were you I would check out the reviews online using the motherboard you are looking at.

 

Unless you want to take the chance and buy best value now and wait a few months to see if compatibility changes.
