Hi,
I'm new member and I need help regarding a motherboard I whish to buy.
I need to know if the ASRock AMD AM5 B650M Pro RS is compatible with this memory :
CORSAIR Vengeance RGB DDR5 RAM 32GB (2x16GB) 6000MHz CL36 Intel XMP Mémoire Informatique Compatible iCUE - Blanc (CMH32GX5M2E6000C36W)

Thank you for your help and time.

According to the https://www.corsair.com/ww/en/p/ddr5-ram/cmh32gx5m2e6000c36/vengeance-rgb-32gb-2x16gb-ddr5-dram-6000mt-s-c36-memory-kit-black-cmh32gx5m2e6000c36#tab-techspecs" rel="nofollow - tech specs for that RAM it is not listed as compatible with AMD
systems.

You will want to look for RAM that lists AM5 support (AMD 600, 700 and 800 series chipsets)
on it's product page. Motherboard manufacturer QVL lists are never very complete.
It's much easier and cheaper for RAM manufacturers to have a handful of boards
on hand to test with than it is for a motherboard manufacturer to source countless
memory modules from multiple manufacturers to test and update a QVL.

TLDR, always check the RAM product page for compatibility, the motherboard QVL is
usually useless as it almost never gets updated (all brands do this).

That is the black version (CMH32GX5M2E6000C36)
It is listed as Memory QVL (GNR) here : https://www.asrock.com/MB/AMD/B650M%20Pro%20RS/index.asp#MemoryGNR" rel="nofollow - https://www.asrock.com/MB/AMD/B650M%20Pro%20RS/index.asp#MemoryGNR

I'm lost.

If it is on your board's QVL then it has been tested by ASRock and works.

FYI, with corsair the W on the end just means it's the white version, it shares the
exact same specs as the black model with the same number.

QVLs can be confusing, just because something hasn't been listed doesn't mean it
won't work, it could also be that it just hasn't been tested.

If it's on your board's QVL (it is) then it is a safe bet.
