Needed to get up and running fast due to the death of a 10980XE, I bought 32gb of the cheapest Corsair Vengeance 6000mHz 36 at the time, have upgraded my Ryzen 7600 and Gigabyte Eagle motherboard I initially bought. I now have a 9900X with an MSI Gaming Plus WiFi X670E, I saw some secondhand memory that had vague specs that appeared to match the kit I had.
As soon as I went to fit the memory I noticed the sticks were a different shade of gray, I left all my original settings in BIOS and after a short wait everything posted with my old EXPO enabled settings, I am pushing PBO quite hard and have an undervolt dialled in. Running CPU-Z showed the new RAM to have identical specs, aside from being XMP only, am very surprised the system has been faultless since installing the extra 32gb. It makes me wonder if Team Red has managed to improve memory compatibility with the newer CPU's, I had read more than a few threads about careful memory matching to get a stable system with Ryzen processors.
