Been having a hard time finding RAM that will post above 2400 MHz with my X570 STEEL LEGEND / Ryzen 7 3800X
This RAM is listed on QVL... do you think it will run well on my setup?
HX432C16PB3K4/64 64GB (16GB 2G x 64-Bit x 4 pcs.) DDR4-3200 CL16 288-Pin DIMM Kit

Like I posted in your other thread .. I run 2 of those sticks without issue and even @ PC3600/CAS18 .. 4 sticks is a bit more strain on the memory controller though that is built into the CPU. So, unless you have a dud 3800x ..they should be fine

I sent back the 3800X and the ram. Replacement 3800X arrives on Friday.
I want to order 32-64 GB of the best value ram I can. Reaching out for recommendations, apologises for the additional thread.
Thinking of just the HyperX Predator Black 64GB kit 3200MHz DDR4 CL16 DIMM XMP Desktop PC Memory (HX432C16PB3K4/64)
Timings: ?˘JEDEC: DDR4-2400 CL17-17-17 @1.2V ?˘XMP Profile #1: DDR4-3200 CL16-18-18 @1.35V ?˘XMP Profile #2: DDR4-3000 CL15-17-17 @1.35V
Was hoping for someone to tell me if that will work well for the X570 STEEL LEGEND... I don't see anyone else running it.
The Memory QVL (Matisse) shows it is supported: DDR4 HyperX Rated 3200 Runs @ 3200 16GB HX432C16PB3K4/64 Hynix C DS SS/DS : 2/4

no one can answer you that qvl or not its always better to set the rams manually but based on those timings its a hynix variant

Well someone coukd answer and say which ram they use and where they picked it up, if its a good valve. That is what I am looking for. Also to confirm that I can run the full 4x16GB sticks without issue ... new to Ryzen and ASRock, my old Intel system didn't have any issues running whatever I put in there that it was rated for

How does that run for you? Ever think of upgrading to 64GB? Do you think it should run well with 64 GB?

even if you based it on the qvl only 2 sticks are tested on it because thats how am4 are suppose to run of course there are people using 4 sticks but not many of them are setting the kits on auto
take note only reason why you'll find b-die being double the price of other ICs is because of flexibility 3200-3800 on whatever CL or voltage assuming you are setting them up manually

Forgive I am new to this... Doesn't "SS/DS : 2/4" mean 2 of 4 of them running has been tested?

DS/SS probably means "dual-side/single-side", but I'm not sure if this means ranks or just the fact that chips are installed on single or both sides of the PCB. These are not strictly interchangeable, single rank modules can have chips on both sides. For example, Samsung b-die 8 GB sticks are single-rank, even though they are listed there as "DS". 2/4 appears to mean "works with 2 and 4 sticks". I assume this based on "2" only entries in the same column suggesting just 2 sticks work for some SKUs.

I was originally going to upgrade to 64GB ... but I don't run CAD or similar programs and only do lite video editing and some gamin. For what I do, 16GB would be plenty... but the 2 sticks I am running are running everything I throw at it without a hitch .. I play a game called Hunt:Showdown that is pretty CPU intensive and real picky on system stability .. when everything else would seemingly run fine, Hunt would crash when I'd try and tweak/overclock my setup..
I run my ram at a smidge faster than it's rated speed and not one crash .. I can set it to XMP profile and it's stable ASaRock as well..

Another best RAM for gamers is Corsair Vengeance LPX. It offers all that you can wish from a classy RAM. Among all the best RAM for Ryzen 7 3800x, this one is a more powerful and flexible product. https://techdzone.com/rams/best-ram-for-ryzen-7-3800x/" rel="nofollow - https://techdzone.com/rams/best-ram-for-ryzen-7-3800x/
