Hi all,

Long story short, I have a 3900X on a Gigabyte X370 motherboard. The RAM I currently have is some 3200MHz Team Group (Hynix AFR) that won't post passed 2666Mhz.

It looks like most of the 3600Mhz is out of stock on OCUK so what out of the below 4000Mhz stuff will most likely run at something above 3200mhz (ideally 3600) at respectable timing

I assume that the 8 pack stuff is probably the best bet but I like the look of the other to more


Thanks in advance for any advice :)

Ordered some BLS2K8G4D32AESBK


Looks like that will do me for 3200-3600 :) thanks all for the advice

Edit .. actually was out of stock, search continues

This thread will help me when I come to buy my kit for the build. Only thing is I've never any overclocking etc so would be looking to buy the best suited out the box for Ryzen. Thoughts?

After some research these Micron E-Die look to be amazing value (both the 3000 and 3200 kits) they look to be capable 90% of what Samsung b-die can at about half the cost.


The kits listed as good online are :

BLE8G4D36BEEAK (3600Mhz)
BLS8G4D32AESBK (3200Mhz)
BLS8G4D32AESBK (3000Mhz)

The 3000Mhz and 3200Mhz are very good value in 16gb (2x8gb) kits and people seem to be hitting 3400mhz regularly with them. And that's on 1st Gen ryzen with the picky memory controller

Got the 3200Mhz kit with micron chips, XMP loaded fine and with 1.36v DRAM voltages it can hit 3533MHZ at the same XMP timings (see below)

3600 wasn't stable at these settings (memtest errors) but with some work I'm guessing it could work OK

See results below

Not quite B-Die timings (and probably won't be able to get quite that fast) but for 1/2 the cost these are fantastic kits for Ryzen

Worth pointing out that I have never gotten eve 3200mhz running with the Hynix AFR kits .
