RAM compatibility with Ryzen 5

You should be fine with that RAM. It appears that the QVL list has this RAM marked down as compatible but missing the letter "k" from it. This may only be from the fact that it is listing that RAM from it's 8GB kit with 4x2GB DIMM's rather than the 2x8GB DIMM's.

The RAM listed in the memory QVL is really just what they tested and is not an exhaustive, exclusive list of what will work.

Ryzen in general is getting the best performance when paired with the fastest RAM possible though, so would look to 3200MHz+ kits if possible. I'd also recommend a 16Gb kit, as adding to any RAM kit later (if you find that 8Gb is not enough) seldom works correctly without insidious errors.

okay, so that means almost any ddr4 memory should work right?
thank you.
