CORSAIR Dominator Platinum 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4 3000 (PC4 24000) Memory Kit Model CMD16GX4M2B3000C15
CORSAIR Dominator Platinum 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4 3000 (PC4 24000) Memory Kit Model CMD16GX4M2B3000C15

Pros: looks good and easily runs on my x370 ryzen 5 1600 build@ the rated 3000mhz speed. but see other for more info. was able to OC to 3200 stable and error free in memtest and memtest64 over night.

Cons: wish it was B-die for this price range. my sticks where both SK hynix: H5AN8G8NMFR-TFC although i had found this particular kit number listed on a confirmed B-die list online. im not gonna knock corsair or the kit for this, as the ram does run at its rated speed in my system.

Overall Review: if you are going to run these sticks on a ryzen system, then you will have to take some extra steps, as xmp wont work. I used a program called Thaiphoon to get all the timing info for the sticks. i then exported that info into Dram Calculator for Ryzen (just google it). u can export a html file from thaiphoon right into the calculator and use the calculator to get all the other DRAM settings needed to help get the ram stable. in my particular asrock bios, some of the settings are not in the normal ram timings area, but found in the chipset options of the bios, so look closely through all ur bios options.
