RGB Memory that actually works with Ryzen and gigabyte k7 370 mb?

Hi,

I have a Ryzen 1700X and a Gigabyte Arous 370 K7 MB

I am pulling my hair out trying to find RGB memory that will work with it and run 3200 speed.  I tried their site and its a mess.

Does anyone know what works and what brands>

The issue is not the name I purchased 32 gb of Trident and it turned out to be the wrong stuff. 

I need working part numbers and such. Making 450 or 250 dollar goof's is hard on my budget

The web site gives part numbers that do not work 99% of the time when I search for memory

My memory's part number is "F4-3200C14-8GTZR"

 

That memory is pretty much guaranteed to have top tier Samsung B-dies.

Has anyone else had any success with other brands?

Have you updated your bios? 

 

Check my Ryzen Ram guide, maybe some things that help - 32GB is pretty much a no go for 1st gen Ryzen if you want above 2933Mhz 

 

 

Some the info is old now/well known, but there maybe something in there

its really nice but the Factory lists are 99% useless in finding the RGB ram I have gone through inputting numbers for hours trying to find stuff.  Lets take the Geil site and statements saying they are AMD Ryzen compatible but no lists have them listed nor is any sellers listing the proper codes that are supposed to work

 

response from GEIL "According to the series number provided, it seems that the issue might be because what you’re installed in an Intel edition rather than the AMD edition ram. For AMD edition, the model number should start with GALWS."
