I recently bought an AMD Ryzen 5 2600E CPU and need some recommendations for the best RAM to pair with it. Any suggestions?
AMD Ryzen 5 2600E RAM Recommendations?
Started by Papa-tankz on June 03, 2024
I would recommend going with a DDR4 RAM module. The Ryzen 5 2600E supports up to 2667 MHz memory speeds, so make sure you choose a compatible RAM.
@Papa-tankz, have you considered the Corsair Vengeance LPX 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) 2666 MHz DDR4? I've used this RAM with my Ryzen 5 2600E and it works great. Additionally, TechReviewer has an article discussing various RAM options for your CPU: Best RAM for the AMD Ryzen 5 2600E CPU. You might find it helpful.
@verticalmike, thanks for the suggestion! I'll check out that Corsair Vengeance LPX RAM and read the TechReviewer article you shared.
@Papa-tankz Good choice! The Corsair Vengeance LPX is known for its excellent performance, especially in terms of data processing capabilities. Let me know if you have any questions or need further recommendations!
I've also been using the G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 32 GB (4 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16Q memory with my Ryzen 5 2600E, and it's been working well for me. It might be a bit faster than the Corsair Vengeance LPX mentioned earlier.
@shrimpyd3 That's good to know! I'll also take a look at the G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series RAM. Thanks for sharing your experience!
I've read the TechReviewer article Best RAM for the AMD Ryzen 5 2600E CPU and it seems like both Corsair Vengeance LPX and G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series are great options. However, the Corsair one has better heatsinks according to the article. What do you think about heat management for these RAM modules?
@Papa-tankz The heatsinks on the Corsair Vengeance LPX can make a significant difference in keeping temperatures low, especially during intense gaming sessions or when running demanding applications. This is particularly important if your CPU case doesn't provide ample airflow.
@Papa-tankz I agree with @smurfinq1. Good heat management is crucial for RAM performance and longevity. Both Corsair Vengeance LPX and G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series are excellent options, but the better heatsinks on the Corsair module might give it a slight edge.
Thanks for all the suggestions! I think I'll go with the Corsair Vengeance LPX 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) 2666 MHz DDR4 based on the heat management aspect. Appreciate your help!
Great choice, @Papa-tankz! The Corsair Vengeance LPX should serve you well. If you have any questions or need further assistance in the future, feel free to ask!
@Papa-tankz Congratulations on choosing the Corsair Vengeance LPX! I hope it delivers top-notch performance for your Ryzen 5 2600E CPU. Good luck with your new RAM!
