I recently got an AMD Ryzen 3 Pro 1300 and I'm looking for suggestions on the best RAM to pair with it. Can you help me out?
AMD Ryzen 3 Pro 1300 RAM Suggestions?

Sure thing, @SkinnySam! The Corsair Vengeance LPX 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) 2666 MHz DDR4 is a great option for your Ryzen 3 Pro 1300. I've used this RAM myself and had no issues.
I've been using the G.Skill Ripjaws V 16 GB (1 x 8 GB) DDR4 with my Ryzen 3 Pro 1300, and it's worked flawlessly. It's not as much capacity as the Corsair option, but it runs at a higher clock speed of 3200 MHz.
If you're looking for something more budget-friendly, the Patriot Viper Steel Series 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-2400 C17 is a good choice. It's not as fast as the other options mentioned here, but it gets the job done without breaking the bank.
Thanks for the suggestions! I'm leaning towards the Corsair Vengeance LPX 2666 MHz option that @TheNicestGuyAround mentioned since it has more capacity and seems to be well-liked by users. However, I was wondering if anyone knows of any good TechReviewer articles that compare different RAM options for Ryzen CPUs? I came across this one: Best RAM for the AMD Ryzen 3 Pro 1300 CPU, but I'm not sure if it's still relevant.
That Best RAM for the AMD Ryzen 3 Pro 1300 CPU is actually still a great resource! It compares several RAM options for AMD Ryzen CPUs, including the Ryzen 3 Pro 1300. You'll find that the Corsair Vengeance LPX 2666 MHz is one of the top recommendations in the article.
I've read that article before and found it really helpful when choosing my RAM for my Ryzen 5 3600 CPU. It's a comprehensive comparison, so you can trust its findings.
Based on this thread and the TechReviewer article, I think I'll go with the Corsair Vengeance LPX 2666 MHz DDR4 RAM. I appreciate all your input!
