Easy OC to 3200 on RYZEN 2600x & ASUS X470 TUF MB

CORSAIR Vengeance LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4 3000 (PC4 24000) Desktop Memory Model CMK16GX4M2B3000C15R
CORSAIR Vengeance LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4 3000 (PC4 24000) Desktop Memory Model CMK16GX4M2B3000C15R

Pros: Easy to set at 3000 with XMP profile. Same ram as 3200 model, just loosen the timing to 16-18-18-18-37 @1.35 volts

Cons: None

Overall Review: Recommend for RYZEN CPU and ASUS board.

Perfect for adding front panel audio and USB 3.0 to older case

Pros: Solid construction and easy install.

Cons: None

Overall Review: highly recommend buying if you have broken OLD USB ports and worn out front panel audio jacks on your trusty old case.

Works great

Pros: Easy set up & nice bios, and always fast shipping from newegg. Easy ram OC using Corsair LPX 3000.

Cons: No spdif audio out, which I would expect on a $150 + mother board. Had to order add on board from another vendor. No case pin header to speed up install. Read specs close to ensure it has the features your build requires, this is a very basic board.

Overall Review: Add optical out and better audio chipset.

Amazing Tech

Pros: No need to OC like the FX, just let it boost away.

Cons: None

Overall Review: Great Value CPU, 65% faster and way cooler out of the box than my 4.5 Ghz FX 9590 toaster.
