So my build is almost ready, the only thing i have left to get is the ram. I'm looking for 16gb of ram, low profile would be much preferred, DDR4 is required, and i only have $167 to spend on it atm. My motherboard is an asrock ab350m with a ryzen 3 processor which is whats making it quite difficult. if anybody has any suggestions i would much appreciate it, i understand that asrock has a tested memory list on their site, but none of it seems to be what im looking for. It also isnt saying these are the ONLY ram kits that will work, so im open to anything they havent tested that could work. It doesnt need to be the fastest or greatest looking ram out there. Just so long as it will work for primarily gaming.
Memory Help: suggestions please

Given the RAM compatibility issues with Ryzen, I would recommend getting RAM listed on the ASrock support list. If you don't, then get it from a vendor who accepts returns.
But as you said, just cause it is not on the list does not mean it wont work. So I would look at big brand RAM manufactures such as Gskill, Crucial, Corsiar or Kingston. These are very common memory brands and they will have the most focus for compatibility.
Make sure you get RAM with speeds of 3000mhz or higher. It is worth the extra cost.

I found this to match your price needs, 16GB requirements and manufacturer approved ram for your motherboard.

This is the same link from the PM post so others can see: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/MYH48d/corsair-memory-cmk16gx4m2b3000c15
Go back to PCPARTPICKER though as I just noticed it is OUT OF STOCK at the Newegg cheaper price.
