MSI B350M BAZOOKA MOTHERBOARD

[Hardcore Games]

I have the MSI B350M Bazooka which has 4 DDR4 slots on it and MSI says it can see 64GB of memory.

So who flogs Samsung b-die RAM chips as these seem to be the best chips around for stuffing a board with a lot of memory. Cheapest RAM is G-Skill which seems to work OK with everything but I wanted to have some better performance with socket AM4

Ideas on how to achieve 64GB and how fast can I get it up to. I think most DDR4 have 7 JEDEC entries and maybe one or two XMS profiles

Make sure to buy a matched kit

There is someone else on here with a Ryzen system and 64GB RAM, can't recall the name right now, I know he couldnt run them at their rated 3200 with all 4 sticks though still got a respectable 2933mhz though ymmv with that board. I wouldnt buy anything higher than 3200 personally not with 4 sticks as I doubt you'll hit much more than that so would probably be a waste, as for what brand, look at the kits within your budget and buy which ones you prefer would be my advice.

Samsung b-die is expensive also i recommend checking memory QVL list.

Edit: Here is some Samsung b-die 64gb kit Link the price is like i said expensive .

Yea, I think unless your shooting for 3400/3600+ then RAM compatibility is much better since the various agesa bios updates since Ryzen was first released and a lot of kits will do their rated speeds without too much trouble, again 64GB/4 sticks ymmv though I would think 2800-3200 should be acheivable. Heck I've ran 2 mismatched sticks of 2800mhz RAM since last year before I bought my current set and they worked fine together at their rated speed. Same with the Teamgroup set I have they are not b die but overclock to 3200 from 3000 and timings of 14.17.17.17 from 16.18.18.18

I saw some RAM at 14-14-14-16 which is a lot better than teamgroup

Go for it then, I mentioned teamgroup cause that's the set I have and what I have them running at etc and the 16GB only cost me £99 not bad to say I have them running 3200 CL 14

i bought an intel 660p m.2 ssd, 512gb as i needed a boot drive and the intel product is hyper fast

pieces are coming together as i can afford them
