Hey everyone! I'm trying to upgrade my multimedia PC's RAM to 64GB because my memory usage hit a high of 98% last night and it caused some freezing. I have a Ryzen 7 3700X CPU, an RTX 2070 Super GPU, and my motherboard is a B550 AORUS PRO AC. I'm looking at the G.Skill Trident Z Neo RGB 64GB (2x32GB) DDR4 3600MHz CL18-22-22-42 memory kit. Can anyone confirm if this RAM will work with my setup? I'd love to order it ASAP so it arrives by Monday, but I can't ask my husband for help since he's at work. Thanks for your help!

Yes, the G.Skill Trident Z Neo will definitely be compatible with your B550 motherboard and Ryzen 7 CPU. Your motherboard can handle up to 128GB of DDR4, and 3600MHz is ideal. Just be sure to enable XMP/DOCP in the BIOS to utilize its full speed!
It's compatible, but if you’re mixing it with older RAM, just be aware that the speeds will match the slower module. If you currently have 3000 MHz RAM and add 3600 MHz, everything will run at 3000 MHz. It's best to just use the 2x 32GB sticks for optimal performance instead of mixing with old ones.
Thanks for the heads-up!
Thank you so much, I appreciate it!!
