This is the list I picked up so far, picking up ram is becoming a pain. As there are so many for and against rules all over the web


https://www.morele.net/inventory/info/d61f549e/#

The list has only two gpu now but i intend to up it to 4 soon

I would ideally like to have 32/ 64 gigs for now and later be able to up to 128 if need be.
Above mentioned list has 2x16 32 gigs recommend mostly as they are optimized for threadripper series by trident z in their website (the last x in the model number) and plenty elsewhere.

Here is the question can I buy two or four sets of these and put it together, will it be fine. (Primarily have doubts because it's not specifically written on trident z website)

If someone has better suggestion please write.

Thank you

You really want 4 sticks to start with so you can enable Quad Channel. If you purchase another set of the exact same model later on, it is very likely to work as intended. Sometimes memory sticks manufactured on a different date have a slightly differing "quality" (more or less voltage required to reach the specified frequency / latencies or higher than specified frequency / latencies). So, although both memory stick sets will have been verified to work at their stated speed you may need to increase voltage higher than would be required for one set and / or one set might reach slightly higher frequency or latencies than the other but you'd be limited to the slowest.

I must also add (since I can't edit my post) that with Threadripper you can adjust the voltage of bank groups independently; although that adds to the complexity of overclocking and fine tuning to maintain stability.
