370 SLI @ 2933 w/ Corsair

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hey all,
So after researching 'Samsung B-die' and their corresponding (crazy) prices, I took the chance and purchased Corsair LPX 3200 DDR4 ram as the QVL stated that it was working at 2666.  

For what it's worth, it's running no problem at 2933 at the moment.  I'm happy to wait the extra month or two to get a bios that will bring it up to 3200 - as opposed to spending $100 MORE on B-Die ram. 

Just thought I'd give everyone an option :

Here's the Ram serial number: 
CMK16GX4M2B3200C16

	Thanks for sharing seanpatrick RAM issues are slowly getting resolved. While we are nowhere near out of the woods with so many kits out there, things are improving. It is worth noting that these kits were all rated for intel's platforms. AMD's Ryzen is a totally new beast.
