Probably been asked scores of times. Any DDR5 issues/pitfalls to steer clear of?

OK. Long story short. First new build for over 10 years so playing catch-up and trying to choose wisely. LOL...

I'm going to go with a Ryzen 7800X3D paired with and ASUS, TUF GAMING B650M-PLUS WIFI (mATX)

My basket at OcUK:

• 1 x Asus TUF Gaming B650M-Plus WIFI (Socket AM5) DDR5 Micro ATX Motherboard (SKU: MB-6K2-AS) = £200.99
• 1 x Samsung 990 Pro 1TB M.2 2280 PCI-e 4.0 x4 NVMe Solid State Drive (SKU: HD-248-SA) = £119.99
• 1 x AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D Eight Core 5.00GHz (Socket AM5) Processor - Retail (SKU: CP-3DT-AM) = £329.98
• 1 x Kingston FURY Beast EXPO 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5 PC5-48000C36 6000MHz Dual Channel Kit (KF560C36BBEK2-32) (SKU: MY-29T-KS) = £104.98

​

That particular Kingston Fury flavour KF560C36BBEK2-32 (EXPO, 1.35V) is on the approved vendor kit list. As is the Samsung 990 Pro for NVMe. Is the EXPO version a better option for a trouble free build?

In truth CAS30 would have been my first choice but I couldn't spot any at first glance at OCUK that didn't have RGB bling. I will look those video's up thanks.

Yeah I'm no RGB fan myself, the Teamgroup stuff is a fiver more for CL30 but not quite my cup of tea looks wise

He he... More than a hint of "Transformers" going on there.. But if you like em, you like em...
