Hey guys, I am going to buy this motherboard and this RAM kit:https://www.itopya.com/gskill-16gb-2x8gb-ripjaws-v-siyah-ddr4-3200mhz-cl16-dual-kit-ram-3/
Are they compatible?

And im thinking Ryzen 1600 + Rx570 with this PSU:https://www.itopya.com/corsair-vs-serisi-vs450-450w-80plus-psu/
Is this OK? or should i loke at higher powers?
Btw is there any tips to select the correct RAMs? I've looked at the ASUS's website and found a PDF file which shows the compatible RAMs but i couldnt understand it.

Thank you for your helps!

Benchmark Scores Faster than yours... I'd bet on it. :)
What don't you understand about the compatibility list? You need to see if the kit you want on the list...

Also, why 1st gen Ryzen? You should be looking at Ryzen 3000 series... they are a lot faster than 1st gen... get a Ryzen 5 3600 or 3600x.

I've found the timings correctly matched on the PDF but when i googled the part number a different RAM kit appeared from Gskill and yes i have budget problem but isnt 1600 AF better than 3200G and isnt 1600 is 6 core 12 threads?

1600af is fine, and comparable to 2600 in performance and is decent for gaming, if your particular ram isn't on the list then who knows but memory compatibility issues are less common on ryzen with the latest bios updates, corsair seems to be the one brand that has the most issues.

F4-3200C16D-16GTZ this the number on the list

F4-3200C16D-16GVKB this what i found on the local sites

So, i think they wont be incompatible

Is the 450W Corsair PSU okay with this setup?

Thank you for your helps!

The ram will likely be fine though for peace of mind you could get the exact ones from the compatability list, that's your call, and that PSU will work fine with a 1600 and 570.

I wish i could get one from the list but they dont sell at online stores at mt country and is there any way that i can find out the 1600 is 12nm or 14nm one before buying it and it its 14nm one its still better than 3200g just because it has 6 cores right?

Just get what ram is available to you then, id just stear clear of corsair personally. And yes the 1600af is a better option than a 3200g

It is for anything that uses more than 4c/8t. Otherwise, it isn't. Ryzen 3000 series is a lot faster than 1000 series. I'd consider saving up for a 3000 series 6c/12t CPU instead of going 1st gen.

Well for a start it's 4c4t and the 1600af can overclock to 4ghz which will make up for the ipc difference and its not first gen its af which is zen+ cores

Yes, I know 3600 or higher is better but thats the money i can spear for PC. 12nm one is not that bad i think.

It's comparable to a 2600 in out of the box performance

Oops, yes, 4c/8t.

As far as 1st gen, I was clearly talking about the 1600. ;)

Again, I'd consider saving up for Ryzen 3000 desktop CPU instead of going 1st gen... but if you need it now, you need it now.

4c4t you said 4c8t again and the 1600af is a 12nm refresh based on zen+ cores, and it's comparable to a 2600 not the 1st gen ryzen 1600. Stop calling it first gen when it's a refresh based on zen+ cores

GOd damnit, lol 4c/4t... hahaha

I got it right now... and know the AF is a Zen+ core. I'd still save up for Zen2, however. ;)

I would get Micron E-die if I were you. Crucial Ballistix 3000cl15 or 3200cl16 is always E-die. Should be able to do 3533cl16 or maybe even better with no problems :)
