Yes, that is team group, so your Video capture card is crashing with smart access memory, re-sizable bar. Thats a new one on me, I have never used a capture card.

but the timing is important? her timing is 16-20-20-40 while other ram is 16-18-18-38.
3200 cl 16 and 3600 cl16 are there differences?

The difference is small enough that you wont really notice unless you are using memory intensive applications. As for gaming, its like 2 or 3% I think.. if you already have 3200, there is no point getting 3600..

I have 3200 cl16 16-20-20-40 memory..

I have the 2400 with 14-16-16-31.
I saw that getting a 3200 at 32GB is better for me unlike the 3600 at 16GB

Upgrading from 2400 to 3200 or 3600 will be a nice little performance bump. As for 3200 vs 3600, the difference is marginal. 16BG vs 32GB, is preference, although a lot of games are now close to filling up 16GB of ram, if you are running other apps while gaming, I would suggest 32GB. I decent set of memory at 32GB @ 3200 or 3600, will be a good little bump in performance.

ok, so the difference is small. Do you have models of both cuts to recommend?

That really comes down to preference. I currently have a set of Team Group 3200 CL16, I also have a set of Crucial 3600 CL 18 in my oldest kids PC.

I guess if would come down to, do you want RGB and flashy colors on it, and what the heat spreader colors are and so on.

I have no preferences, as long as they work well with the 5600x. I don't even care if it's RGB or not

Then you can choose any set at either 3200 or 3600, from just about any brand.

I would only say " stay away from Corsair " from some of the issues some users here have mentioned a few times in other threads.

So, Team Group, Patriot, Kingston, Crucial, G-Skill are all good brands.

Just pick a set that fits in your budget and as the aesthetics you like.

I have never over clocked my memory. CPU and GPU yes, always. I have a few sets of Corsair Vengeance memory sets. They still work, but they were in old intel builds and they are 2400MT CL14. I am only saying stay away from them, so I don't get a ton of back lash from the guys/gals here. It always comes down to preference.

If you get a set from the before mentioned brands, at say, CL16 16-20-20-40 you should be fine.

My .02, get into a Ryzen 7700/B650 combo or Intel i5 13500/B760 combo with an RTX 3070 (ti). Basically, take the money youre investing into that 4070 super and put it towards a newer platform.

EDIT:
Also, I didnt read the entire thread.

Click the link and you can see all the memory modules that have been tested on your board.
that exact code is not there, for example the code F4-3200C16D-32GVK is not in the list while the code F4-3200C16D-32GTZA is

AM5 or 13th Gen Intel.
I would like to wait because the mobo and the CPU are one year old

I saw that the 4070 GPUs are not on the list either

Well.. GPUs are not going to listed on the motherboard website. You can use any GPU you would like, as long as you have a driver.

However, on the manufacturer's website it gives me the compatibility with my mobo for ram. For example g-skill

I'd rather see you do it now and invest into a ddr5 platform than come one year later doing what could be done this year. Just re-evaluate the priorities I guess. To each their own.

You dont have to upgrade every year. Or to every new platform. 5600x with a new 4070, will allow the OP to play games for atleast a few years. He already has this hardware, he was just asking on what he could do to upgrade his current set up.

So the memory will give him a nice bump in performance, the new graphics card will be a really nice bump from his current 2060.

However, I can't find the 16cl 3600 32GB RAM in the kit, is it better if I take two single banks of 16?
