9800X3D RAM buying guide by Buildzoid

And is there an easy way to find out if memory is single or dual?
You'd need to check but some have a key stating 2R (2 rank) versus 1R (1 rank).

AFAIK, 24gig and below DIMMS are single rank. I'd still strongly consider single rank kits as they are often cheaper and still plenty fast. 6000Cl30 24gig Hyix M-Die DIMMS are really really good.

Try not to get too hung up on RAM, buying a really expensive kit won't result in a huge performance uplift for the money. Just get a kit that's fast enough and try overclock it.
 
I was just looking at the cheapest Corsair 2x24GB 6000 C30.
Yeah, that’s good. Not too expensive but you might still be pretty happy with a 32gig kit at £100.

Up to you in the end and if you want the extra capacity then great, it’ll be a good purchase.
