I'm looking to upgrade from my current 16GB kit of 3000MHz Corsair Vengeance memory to a 32GB 3600MHz CL18 kit, The Motherboard QVL List isn't very helpful at all, I was looking at This kit from OLOy but can't find any information on compatibility. Is there a better way to find compatibility? And is that OLOy kit compatible with my board/CPU?

Hi,
Don't get c18 for 3600
c15 or c16 for 3600
But 3600 is really close to amd max you'd be better off with 3200c14 frankly it can oc easily to amd max. and beyond.

That's not what I asked, Is that kit compatible with my setup?

i doubt 32 GB work at 3600 on a 2700x. Mine only do 2933. I have not upgraded to the latest agesa though. It is a XMP 3200 rated kit.

Stay away from Corsair, also if you are looking to use 4 sticks forget about running anything that high with a second gen Ryzen.

OLOy brand has been mentioned as being used with AMD builds in other threads, with no issues.
As others have said, it is the speed and timings that may be the issue.
