I'm building a new setup with the AMD 9800X3D and I'm on the hunt for stable DDR5 RAM options that come in white to match my all-white build. I've had my eye on the Corsair Vengeance LED 32GB kit, but the price has shot up by nearly $40 in just two weeks! Although I'm not opposed to G.Skill, I just want something I can set up easily by selecting the XMP profile in UEFI without any need for overclocking. Any suggestions for reliable white DDR5 RAM kits that would work well with the 9800X3D? My motherboard will likely be the MSI MPG B850 Edge TI.

For your setup, I recommend going for 6000 CL30 RAM. Brand isn’t too critical; just make sure it has an EXPO profile since that’s AMD's version of XMP.
So just to clarify, AMD CPUs don’t actually use XMP?
