Ryzen RAM

[VicRik]

Hi guys,

 

I am planning to build a Ryzen PC and I came up with a little question. What happens if I use RAM that is not officially supported by the motherboard? Does it not work at all? Will it not run at the listed speed?

Mobo in question: MSI B350 PC Mate

RAM in question: Team Group T-Force TDRED416G3000HC16CDC01 (that is 16GB)

 

Thanks for your help!

Its abit of a hit or miss, I've had ram that works on systems that it doesn't support, but on others it doesn't work. If you have not purchased it yet then maybe for with what it officially supports just to be safe.

It will probably work, just make sure everything is updated

Have look here, I just updated the post with recent news:

The RAM will work but might not work at 3000MHz right away.

It will work regardless of anything, but it might only work at 2133MHz. Anything above that is not guaranteed to work.

 

QVL only assures you that if the memory doesn't work on a listed motherboard, then the memory vendor has to accept RMA for it.

If you want to go over 3000MHz, you need Samsung memory. You can get the Flare X and be sure or dig.
