Hello,

I would like to increase my RAM from 16GB to 32GB and maybe upgrade it to faster RAM if that makes sense with my system (RX6900XT, Ryzen 5 3600x)My invoice of the PC sais "2x 8 GB Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro DDR4-3200" and in HWInfo64 I can see it is 2 x 8GB "pc4-25600 ddr4 sdram corsair CMWX8GD3200C16W4". In the BIOS of the mainboard (ROG Strix b450f Gaming I) the "AI Overclock Tuner" is set to "D.O.C.P. Standard DDR4-3200 16-18-18-36-1.3 5V".

I understand that the "ROG Strix b450f Gaming I" supports "RAM up to 4400MHz [OC]" from https://rog.asus.com/motherboards/rog-strix/rog-strix-b450-f-gaming-model/

1. Would the following be a good choice to buy to replace my current 8GB 3200Mhz RAM with 32GB 4000Mhz RAM? I read somewhere that the ones I link have bad timings. What timings should I look for? https://www.amazon.de/dp/B0957WH8Q7/?th=1

2. If I would want to keep my current RAM and just add 2 more 8 GB modules I would have to pretty much buy 2x 8 GB "pc4-25600 ddr4 sdram corsair CMWX8GD3200C16W4" is that right? I understand that, if I would add 2 8GB modules with e.g. 3600Mhz to banks A1+B1, they would only work with the 3200MHz of my current RAM that are in banks A2+B2 is that correct?

3. When adding 2 modules to A1+B1, do they need to have the same CL as the modules from A2+B2?

4. ...does somebody have a quick Amazon link to compatible RAM with 2x 16GB between 3600MHz and 4(4)00Mhz with "good timings" that are up to around 100 Euro? If I can make a decision within the next 2 hours they might be delivered tommorrow =)

thank you very much

love p3ppi

P.S.: Is there a possibility that i can overclock my current RAM to 3400 MHz or should I not even try? Can I see that from like the technical details of my RAM in HWInfo?

I am running 16GB of RAM at 3600Mhz on my machine. Because on games like Reforger I get hitching on higher texture settings, my idea was to increase the amount of RAM available, especially because 32GB RAM is, as far as I know, a good standard at the time.

Surprisingly, it seems to be difficult to find compatible RAM which would not also run at significantly lower frequency.

My system:

• ROG STRIX B450-F GAMING II

• XFX 7900 XT

• Ryzen 7 5800X3D

• Corsair RM850x 80 PLUS Gold PSU

In order to find compatible RAM, I was using the support list from the mainboard's support page:

https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/SocketAM4/ROG_STRIX_B450-E_GAMING/Memory_QVL_3rd_Gen_AMD_Ryzen_Processors.pdf?model=ROG%20STRIX%20B450-F%20GAMING%20II

There is only a few modules listed that run at 3600Hz or higher and offer 32GB:

• CORSAIR CMW32GX4M4K4000C19

• G.SKILL F4-3600C17Q-32GTZR

• HyperX HX436C17PB3K4/32

None of these are available in my area (some are listed at about 400€ per kit, but even those are unavailable), so I am left wondering, can I upgrade at all? How can I know what kits could work with my mainboard-CPU-combination?

I tested a 2x16GB kit: G.Skill DIMM 32 GB DDR4-3600 (2x 16 GB) Dual-Kit which resulted in system instability when trying to run it at 3600MHz XMP enabled. What RAM would work at 3600MHz? How can I know?

Long term I aim to switch to AM5 and a 9800X3D, but because such an upgrade would also require a CPU upgrade and I am currently still very happy with the 5800X3D on AM4, this is not something I wanted to do at the moment.

Thanks for any advice.

I have an Asus Rog Strix B450F gaming MB and an AMD R7 2700x CPU, I am getting conflicting information. Some sources say it will support up to 128GB ram at DDR4 3200, but the QVL only lists support up to 64GB DDR4 2666. I am working with really large 3d files and my system hangs and locks up once the files get over 1gb in size so I am hoping that a memory upgrade will help this. Currently only have 16gb.
