Is My RAM Compatible with This Motherboard?
Asked by
TechieTurtle92
Hey everyone! I'm trying to determine if these two components will work well together: I'm looking at getting 2 kits of the Patriot Viper Xtreme 5 DDR5 RAM (48 GB total, 2x24 GB modules at 8200MT/s CL38) and I'm planning to use it with the Asus ROG STRIX Z890-E GAMING WIFI motherboard. Also, I have a water cooler, the ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III Pro 360 A-RGB. What do you think? Thanks in advance for the help!

Honestly, that motherboard is pretty powerful for your needs. Plus, it definitely supports DDR5, so you're in the clear there. Just make sure to check if those RAM sticks are optimized for your specific setup!

If you want to maximize your RAM, you might want to consider getting a single 96GB kit instead of mixing two different kits. Using two modules is usually more reliable for achieving full speeds than four modules. Just something to keep in mind!
MemoryMaster19: Totally agree! But finding 2x48GB 8200MHz kits can be a bit tricky, unfortunately.
