Actually I have received my order (G.SKILL Ripjaws V / F4-3000C15S-16GVR / 1 x 16GB/ PC4-24000 / DDR4 3000 Mhz RAM).

And now I came know, that non of the mobo memory support list is listing this ram....

And I plan to buy :
- gigabyte ab350-gaming 3
or
- msi b350 tomahawk

And other specs I already purchased and on the way is...?

-AMD RYZEN 7 SERIES OCTA CORE PROCESSOR 1700 - WITH WRAITH SPIRE COOLING SOLUTION

- MSI GRAPHICS CARD RX 480 8GB DDR5 ARMOR OC

- LG 22MP68 22" Full HD IPS SLIM LED MONITOR (1920x1080)

- Corsair RM Series RM650 - 650 Watt 80 PLUS Gold Certified Fully Modular SMPS

- SAMSUNG INTERNAL 2.5-INCH SATA 3.0 SSD 850 EVO 250GB (MZ-75E250BW)

- DEEPCOOL MID TOWER CABINET (ATX) - DUKASE V2

- BlueRigger High Speed HDMI Cable with Ethernet - Supports 3D, 4K and Audio Return - Latest Version (10 Feet / 3 Meters)

- Antec F19 120mm LED Silent Fan - 4 nos

- WD 1TB Black Internal Desktop Hard Drive (WD1003FZEX)

So I want to know, do my ram supports this specs with its 3000mhz...??????? Or we need to tweak in the bios.????

Or else I should return it and order a 2400mhz

 
Solution
A single RAM still will never be dual channel -- you need two sticks of RAM for that. Get a 2x8GB kit for dual channel.

And no, the QVL is not a strict list. It is simply the memory that the manufacturer has tested. They simply cannot test all memory.

So what about my ram ,,,,? will it supports my specs , at-least to 2667mhz by default, without Overclocking.....???????

And can I get 3000Mhz by Overclocking....

Is this possible....

Your RAM will boot at 2133. You will need to manually set the speed, timings, and voltage most likely. Depending on the board you get, there may be XMP settings to enable that automatically put the settings in for you.

I would say most likely that your RAM will work at 2400 or 2666, but probably not 3000. After some more BIOS updates in the future, you might be able to get the RAM to full speed.

And my board is gigabyte ab350-gaming 3....

- I had returned this product (G.SKILL Ripjaws V / F4-3000C15S-16GVR / 1 x 16GB/ PC4-24000 / DDR4 3000 Mhz RAM) because this one is a single channel ..... Pricing - INR 9400

- And ordered (CORSAIR DESKTOP RAM VENGEANCE LPX - 16GB (16GBx1) DDR4 DRAM 3000MHZ BLACK) and this product is dual channel mentioned in corsair website .... pricing - INR 8900

Is this a better one what I ordered now....?????

But both the RAM is not listed in the memory supported list of gigabyte ab350-gaming 3 mobo.......

- Will this affect in performance ....??

- Is that strict to buy a listed product ...????
