Thakal Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Hi, I've already bought a cmk16gx4m2b3000c15 kit - corsair 3000mhz 2x8gb (red) which will go with a Ryzen 5 1600. I'm looking for an am4 b350 compatible with it within their qvl but haven't found any yet. Any tips ? Wish not to run it @ 2133... I've asked to Corsair and the answer I've got is that all AM4 motherboards will be compatible - but this not quite my worry. It's more being able to run it at a decent speed. I've found a couple of x370 that would be compatible but I'm not sure it worth putting the extra money on this : for example the asus x370 pro but has awful reviews and no guarantee to run @ 2999 for twice the price of the mobo! I've searched the web & the forum but it's either 2 months old (usually unsuccessful results but older bios) or not precise or relevant. If current users have feedback it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HisEvilness Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Yo, I am running the Prime B350 with CMK16GX4M2B3000C15W x 2 sticks. As it stands i can not reach the DOCP of 2934mhz it will fail the OC, running it at 2666. However it does have a stable overclock with stock cooler @ 3825 with 2666mhz. Important to note i did not have to change the volts other then what the stick took of the DOCP profile of the Corsair sticks. What motherboard kinda depends on your OCíng needs the X versions have better OC specs for sure. I went with the B350 because it was a good price with some X370 giving as you stated no guarantee of running the best DOCP profile.
