Great for Ryzen in computer components

Because Ryzen 3000-series processors such as the 3950x or 3900x benefit greatly from a 1:1 Infinity Fabric to RAM speed ratio, this particular set of RAM is ready to go. , is a great 32GB kit for Ryzen 3000 series systems. Infinity Fabric on AMD boards is typically around 1800MHz, although many of the $400 boards are 1833, 1866 or maybe even 1900 for Infinity Fabric -Support speed. 1800MHz Infinity Fabric correlates well with 3600MHz DDR RAM. DDR RAM actually runs at half the advertised performance in terms of actual MHz (cycles). You can list it twice the actual MHz rating because DDR stands for double data rate, so it's effectively doing the job twice per cycle. So the actual 1800MHz RAM bundle is listed as 3600MHz because of this double the data rate. 1800MHz Infinity Fabric speed locked 1 for 1 with a 1800MHz RAM kit like this will actually perform better in Ryzen systems than most 4266MHz RAM kits that start at 4266MHz. The RAM kit must decouple the RAM clock and Infinity Fabric, which can negatively impact the performance of Ryzen systems across multiple workloads as decoupling increases latency. The ideal DDR RAM kit for Ryzen 3000 series systems would be something with as low a CL (CAS Latency) rating as possible and as close to 3600-3800MHz as possible. It could actually be a C16 3600MHz kit or a C16 3733MHz kit. Price factor, and this 32GB C18 3600MHz kit is pretty good. Both the RAM clock and the Infinity Fabric clock are related or, as otherwise stated, have a 1-to-1 relationship.
