How much memory does the ASUS PRIME X570-PRO Motherboard take?
What type of memory does the ASUS PRIME X570-PRO Motherboard take?
How many total memory slots to install memory on this Motherboard?
I'm looking to possibly get this motherboard (and put a Ryzen 5900X in it) when it goes on sale, and I'd like to pair it with this 32GB Vengeance Pro ram kit. However, looking at this spec sheet from Asus, that specific model number (CMW32GX4M2C3200C16W) is not on the list. Some very close/related kits, though, are (like CMW32GX4M2Z3200C16, the only difference being 4M2Z instead of 4M2C). It's been a while since I've built a pc and don't want to mistakenly buy incompatible parts; will these work together?
I have bought the following components for a machine dedicated to running Finite Element Analysis (FEA):
CPU - 3900X (Yet to be shipped!)
MOBO - ASUS Prime X570 Pro
RAM - Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 64GB (4 x 16GB) DDR4 3600 (PC4 28800) Model CMW64GX4M4K3600C18W
HD1 - Samsung EVO 970 Pro 1 TB
HD2 - Samsung EVO 970 Plus 1 TB
Video Card - EVGA RTX 2080
PSU - Seasonic Platinum 80+ 750W
I have everything but the CPU.
I have been reading lots of great posts and am excited for this build but I have seen lots of troubling posts concerning the X570 boards and the 3900X and the RAM compatibility. This is the part that makes me feel sick. Have I sunk a large chunk of money into a system that has components that are not fully compatible and will not work? It troubles me that the ASUS boards seem to be having the most issues. Is my system at risk for trouble?
