Building a new PC with 7800X3D. Looking for RAM recommendations! What speed and timings should I aim for, budget around $200?
Man I wish I found this thread sooner. Would have saved me so much hassle.
Corsair Vengeance 6000MHz CL30 worked AMAZINGLY well for me! Tight timings are key with the 7800X3D. I've had zero issues. Love it!
7800X3D loves tight timings! Aim for CL30. Speed? 6000MHz is the sweet spot. Don't overspend; even budget kits often OC well. Check QVL lists, but Hynix-based kits generally play nice. Are you planning to tweak timings manually? That opens up options. I've seen good results with G.Skill, no complaints after 2 years.
