Do you think this RAM is real? https://a.aliexpress.com/_EzzGvHg

Guys, I just wanted to let you know that after replacing some parts, my computer came back from the dead. I decided on 2x8gb g.skill aegis (3200mhz, cl16), as a power supply Endorfy vero l5 600w, and a new r5 5600 from another store. Purely theoretically, should my build handle 4 RAM sticks...

That's why I put it in quotation marks. I want to choose a setup that I could sleep soundly with, without worrying about lack of RAM. In this case, 2x16 GB 3200mhz will work best for me.

I don't need that much now, but this computer will last me for years. Until now, I was using a Dell laptop with an i3-6006U and HD Graphics 520. (But I upgraded the drive to an SSD and replaced the 4GB of RAM with 16GB). That's why I want it to be "futureproof" for my needs (I know that in...

I plan to use my PC for casual gaming and entertainment. Currently, 16GB of RAM is sufficient; that may change soon. But for my needs, will 4 sticks instead of 2 really make a difference? Oh and I checked the current prices, 3600 MHz is much more expensive than 3200 MHz (in my country). Is it...

Then I don't quite understand. Is it better to buy two 16GB sticks in one kit, even if my motherboard has four RAM slots? Edit: Now I have read what Colif wrote. Does it really make that much of a difference? If yes, then I will do as you say, and buy one 32GB kit.

I know DDR4 is becoming a thing of the past, but unfortunately, I don't have the budget to buy 32GB of RAM right now. Maybe I'll save up some money and buy four 8GB sticks at once. I thought that the RAM brand didn't matter much (I heard that only speed and latency matter), but what you wrote...

I live in Poland. We have several local brands here, such as Endorfy (SilentiumPC, SPC Gear) and Krux (My case is from this brand). My choice of components for someone from another country may sometimes seem unclear, but there are significant price differences that I have often considered.

I decided to temporarily hold off on building a computer so as not to buy any bad components again. As you suggested, I'm buying a Corsair Vengeance Lpx 16GB 3200MHz CL16 (2x8GB). In the future, I'll add a second set of these to have 32GB of RAM. I'll also find a decent power supply that won't...

The PSU and RAM were from one store, and the CPU from another. For a full refund, of course. I'm still waiting to get a refund for my previous B550 from Gigabyte and for the ssd (I upgraded from a Lexar NM620 to an NM790). Thanks a lot for your help man, good night (BTW it's only 7 PM where I live.)

"The serial number entered has been identified as a genuine PIB processor and it is covered under AMD Processor in a box (PIB) three Year Limited Warranty terms and conditions." I don't know if I'd be able to prove damage to them, although EU law certainly helps. Maybe for peace of mind, I'll...

I'm just afraid that the time to return the CPU will run out, I'll buy a new PSU and RAM, and then it will turn out that it's the CPU's fault.

I don't want to rush into something stupid. Do you think I should return the CPU, PSU, and RAM just in case, and choose better options?

It doesn't have to be 3600MHz; 3200MHz is definitely enough (if it's CL16). I'm on a budget, so RGB isn't a priority. I need to send the CPU in by Thursday, and if I can, I could have the RAM by tomorrow. Okay, I'm definitely returning the PSU.

I'm not very knowledgeable when it comes to computer components (as you can see). I already know I should replace the PSU with a reliable one. As for RAM, should return it and find a replacement that's on MOBO's QVL? And as a precaution, should I also replace the CPU with the same one from...
