It's not a bad kit but Ryzen needs the RAM to be coupled with the FCLK to have best performance. This typically means anything over 3,600 Mhz is not worth it (1800 FCLK)

This is the best RAM deal right now for Ryzen.

Is the ripped worth the extra?

I don't think so personally, consider the 3600/16 kit runs at 1.35 the ripped 3600/14 kit 1.45, now if you boost the voltage to 1.45 on the 3600/16 kit it will most likely do 3600/14.

For reference I'm running the 3200/14 kit at 3800/14 with tight subs and it destroys the ripped kit @ XMP in the dram calcs mem-bench so most of these kits will hit decent numbers with manual tweeks.

You recommend the 3200/14 or 3600/16 then?

i bought the 3200/14, ran it at 1.45v 3600/14 - saved me £20, sorted

If you got the cash and can afford it 4000Mhz is decent ram. If rumours are true about the Zen 3 able to hit 2000MHz fclk then those 4000Mhz ram will be sweet. Tho they will also be cheaper as they become more mainstream
