Hi all, I see there are many different threads about memory for the new Ryzen 3000 series of chips. I am in the process of putting together the components for a 3950X build, and would like to find a 64GB kit that plays nicely with the MSI Prestige X570 Motherboard. I know that C14 3600 is supposed to be much faster than C14 3200 kits, but I am having a hard time justifying the extra cost as a kit of Corsair 3200 C16 LPX is about $339, and the Corsair Dominator C18 3600 kit is about $880. The other thing that is confusing me is that people say with the LPX kits you never know what memory modules you will get, so you might end up with some sticks that use Hynix memory that does not work well with Ryzen. Without breaking the bank, what would you guys recommend for a good kit for my upcoming build? This is the rest of the components for my system. I would like to order the memory sooner than later as the ram prices have jumped up quite a bit over the last weeks.
