To add to what @TyrionBane said, if you prefer DDR4, then the Corsair Vengeance LPX 3200 MHz and Corsair Vengeance LPX 3600 MHz are reliable choices for stock-speed and overclocking respectively.

For stock-speed DDR5, I'd recommend checking out the Corsair Vengeance 4800 MHz. It offers a great balance between speed and capacity.

If you're looking for overclocking capabilities, go for the G.Skill RipJaws S5 5200 MHz. It's got an excellent performance with higher clock speeds.

@TyrionBane/@Detour7miles/@DylanOzanich, thank you for the suggestions! I'm torn between DDR5 and DDR4. Can you guys share your experiences with these RAMs?

Personally, I've had great success with DDR4. I was initially hesitant about the upgrade, but the performance improvement was noticeable. The Corsair Vengeance LPX 3200 MHz has served me well in both gaming and productivity tasks.

@DylanOzanich, that's helpful to know! I might go for a DDR4 RAM then. Thanks!

No problem, @morganbrannan! Just remember to check the compatibility with your motherboard before purchasing.

And make sure you have a good return policy in case things don't work out as expected.

@TyrionBane/@Detour7miles, will do! Thanks again for your help. I'll look into the Corsair Vengeance LPX 3200 MHz and check its compatibility with my motherboard.
