AsRock B450 Pro DDR4 RAM Help Please!

mk6golf · 2 Apr 2020 at 19:08

Hi,

I am buying bits to build a new PC. I have a Corsair case, BeQuiet PSU and AsRock B450 Pro4 board so far. I now need to choose RAM but very confused as I have read about some not being compatible.

Has anybody suggestions on which RAM I should fit? I'm thinking 2x 8gb but if reasonable I could possibly stretch to 2x 16gb.

Thanks!!

Is this for gaming? If so 16gb will be enough...

Team Group Vulcan are one to consider, they are recommended a lot on here and I have a set in my build running at 3200mhz...faster RAM for Ryzen is best

Hi, A bit of gaming and I do a lot with Final Cut, etc. I was told 16gb enough but I gather more I better ha ha.

So is the Team Group Vulcan stuff compatible. Any linkies to what I need? Ryzen is what is going in. Not bought processor yet as hoping one comes along 2nd hand to save a bit of cash on buying a new one. But I'm open to suggestions. Again, probs big as I can afford reasonably.

Thanks!

Yeah always nice to save abit of money... Best way to find compatibility for RAM is by heading over to your Motherboard manufacturer website and find your board, somewhere on the page it will have the list of RAM for that model

I've used them before and had no issues getting them to run at higher speeds, once enabling XMP in bios.

Others may recommend something different with better timings but I'm unsure which ones it is

Corsair Vengeance LPX arrived along with a Samsung M.2 970 EVO Plus drive.

Hopefully get assembled this week pending another Overclockers delivery with last bits required!
