Memory options for Aorus Master 2 * 16GB @ 3600

Hello,

So I have been working down the memory tested list provided by Gigabyte for the Aorus Master X570.

Now in the list they have tested 4 * 16GB of various sticks, now I am assuming that I could go with that product (the the 2 * 16GB version), since the the 4 * 16 has been tested?

The current machine I have is 10 years old (Good old I7-920) and is the last time I built a PC, I initially didn't follow the tested list 10 years ok, and got spanked for it

So I am being more careful this time. I appreciate 10 years is a long time in pc self build!!!

Anyway has anyone has used 2 * 16 GB @ 3600 in the Aorus Master, which isn't on the tested list?

Any thoughts are appreciated.

Thanks

Thank you. Currently viewing the list.

This seems ok => CMK32GX4M2Z3600C18. I am looking for memory that is going to go on and on ... especially given how long I have kept the last pc.

I did notice the little disclaimer at the bottom, about dies being swapped.

I would rather go with 2 * 16, since I may want to put in another 32 GB. I have been running VMs at home recently.

Thanks for the help..

So on the subject of memory does anyone know the difference between CMK32GX4M2D3600C18, which corsair list and CMK32GX4M2Z3600C18 which Overclockers list. Not the price, but the difference between M2D and M2Z in the part no.s. On the corsair website they look the same. Just wanted to know if there was some subtle thing I was missing?
