RAM for Ryzen R5 1600X

[azza_01]

Hi all,

I plan on building a gaming pc soon , i intend on using the R5 1600X with a MSI X370 GAMING PRO Motherboard. Just wondering what would be the best RAM?

Any thoughts be appreciated 

Cheers

Done a lot of reading for my Ryzen 5 build - Going for Corsair Vengeance LPX 3000mhz for two reasons:

• Ryzen seems to really benefit from high clocked Ram, 3000/3200 seems to be the sweetspot for price/prof
• I need low profile to clear my cooler (Noctua NH-D15)

Any respectable brand with a high clock should be fine, 2 sticks are better than 1!

 

Edit: Read this too:

there is a bit of a shortage on RAM at the moment, but corsair vengeance, eather 3000 or 3200 Mhz seems to be a good option most of the time.

Check the compatibility before you purchase. Corsair and GSkill seem to be the top purchases for Ryzen. The systems can be picky 4g sticks are different than 8g sticks of same brand and speed.  just like 3200 is different than 3000 of the same brand and size.
