I have 4x Crucial Ballistix Gaming Memory, 8GB DDR4 3600MT/s CL16 sticks running at stock XMP on a Ryzen 3700X MSI B450 Mortar Titanium - Zero issues.
Playing Anno 1800 for a few hours i checked my windows task manager performance and it was at 24GB's of system memory in use :)
SO IM glad i have 32GB's of ram for gaming.. i just hope i don't need more over the next 3-4 yearsOver the next 3 to 4 years, extremely unlikely we'll need more than 32Gb RAM. Especially with more videocards & NVMe drives themselves getting DirectStorage support in the future, and with GPU's increasing their vRAM too with every new generation now.
EDIT: Glad I grabbed two of these for $152 before they ran out of stock within 20 minutes lol
Not cancelled?
@baldur: Not yet.
@baldur: mine got cancelled
@vid_ghost: I'm still waiting too
@baldur: Mine is not cancelled too, did you buy 2 sets? Maybe they went through the orders and only cancelled the ones that said $76 and we got away for buying two for $152. If others got cancelled though, it's probably just a matter of time before they realised. Although once I got a $100 headphone for free because the discount code when combined with the lightning deal made it $0.00 LOL
@ThatsCheap: I bought three sets and still my order hasn't been cancelled.
@baldur: Nice hopefully it goes through. Fingers crossed for those of us who ordered more than 1 set.
@baldur: Just got an email saying my order has been dispatched. So it has gone through, hopefully you got the notification too?
@ThatsCheap: Oh nice. Not yet for me.
@ThatsCheap: Where do you find these codes?
@AUMunAh: OzBargain. It was a one time thing, these headphones were on special during the lightning rounds on Amazon down to $60, and when I applied the normal 20% off discount code, for some reason they went down to $0.00 and the order went through and they delivered.
I think Bill Gates would agree with you

We're talking with regards to gaming.
The comment is constrained within a set period of time, next 3 to 4 years.
Games are just starting to finally utilize over 16Gb and only a handful of games like Flight Simulator 2020 recommend 32Gb of RAM right now. Videocards are being pushed with 10Gb+ of vRAM too now with 20GB vRAM becoming likely very soon in mainstream systems, and DirectStorage will allow future games to pull content directly from the NVMe drives that will support the technology.
Crazy price
Awesome price. Is there any noticable or tangible difference if I am upgrading from DDR4 2666mhz RAM? Thanks!
I'm in same boat. Gskill 3000CL14…
Will these work with Ryzen build?
Yep, well
Thanks, I have placed an order!
Likely, although it really depends on what CPU you are pairing it with.
If it's any of the Ryzen 3000 series (and even 2000 series), you should be fine.
Going with AMD Ryzen 3 3300X, hope it has no issues?
It should work fine.
@zrmx: Thanks, I bought 2 sets:) One for me and one for my friend who said no way it’s this cheap….lol
@Aerith-Waifu: I bought a set even though I'm already using a 3600MHz set lol (although at CL18). So much 'buy now think later' today.
@zrmx: The OzB way:)
Are there any disadvantages in getting 4x8gb vs 2x16gb on a x570 motherboard?
No future upgrade.
Thanks, I doubt I will ever need more than 32GB of ram on this computer so it isn't much of a disadvantage to me.
Am no expert, but from what I've read there is a slight edge to four ranks, see benchmarks-

wow, instant buy. Thanks
Ooh yeah glad i didnt snap these up for $110 the other day. Thanks OP
Great! got 2 sets. The PC build has begun!
Thats insanely cheap wow
Great price, cheers op.
wow, buy one without thinking
Insane price - got 1. Thanks OP
WOW! i paid double .. same RAM .. oof
There have already been a bunch of 'buy now think later' moments.
Insta buy even though I don't even need it ha… be fun to play around with
Done, thanks.
Too good to be true. Ordered 2
Wanted 32gb of RAM for my upcoming build, is there any major downside to getting 2 of these kits rather than 2 sticks of 16gb? (will be connected to ASUS AM4 TUF Gaming X570-Plus motherboard)
Cant upgrade in the future.
Yeah that is the only downside i see, but 32gb of RAM should be plenty for a long time to come.
I mean if you’re super picky you can also say it doubles the power usage, makes it harder to overclock as you have 4 sticks of ram instead of just two.
Agree with above, 32gb will be more than enough until we move to DDR5 anyway, at this price point it's a no brainer for me
If they run with XMP profiles successfully on all four, no downsides. In fact there's definite improvements in a few cases with 4 sticks vs 2 sticks, even in dual channel setups. Hardware Unboxed have an analysis video about it.
XMP 2.0 supported: https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/bl2k8g36c16u4b
they do one click and it was set to full speed… had no issue's at all with mine i have the white version but exactly the same otherwise.
Placed an order and cancelled my $110 order that hasn't been shipped yet, hoping for the best, and thanks OP!
I did the same - its annoying that they won't just refund the difference. The one I ordered is actually due to arrive today.
Hey mate - will you just be returning the old order as soon as you receive? Is the return free?
I'm a bit confused as I haven't dealt with Amazon UK returns before…
Eep, all the best mate, I'm sure you can return it unpackaged with free shipping, they're normally good with that (as long as it's not abused of course).
Hope for the best
wow crazy! $28 cheaper than cheapest ever.
I got two sets of this kit so runnning 4x 8GB - 32GB and works fine on my Ryzen 3800x and on a B450m mortar.
Haven't tried any overclocking but the xmp at 3600 mhz worked without any changes even with 4 dimms from 2 packs.
Mortar max or Titanium
Titanium mate
I just purchased the RGB 3600 Cl16 for 133
But now with the non RGB falling in price to 76 makes me want to cancel
I want rgbeeeeeeee
If you want RGB that's a choice, go for it. But if it's absolutely not necessary for you, this is a banger deal.
20$ difference i dont mind, but 57$ is a bit too much
hopefully the RGB version will also come under a prime deal
Now I'm waiting a deal on 3600 or 3700x……
im waiting for at least the 3700x also
If you have eBay Plus, Computer Alliance will have the following deals tonight:
Ryzen 7 3700x $415
Ryzen 5 3600 $279
Using "PLUSFLASH"
unless they jack up the prices before that …
Very doubtful as they hardly move on price and eBay are footing most of the discount.
Cheers mate
I am waiting for a deal for AMD Ryzen 3 3300X
Any issues pairing this with 16GB of 3200 ram?
All sticks will run at 3200, otherwise all good
You will just have to match speed and timings, if your 3200 can match those speeds it will be fine
How substantial is the difference in running 1 set of these as dual channel or 2 as quad for a ryzen system? Ty
The AM4 socket doesn't support quad channel (including Zen 2 and Zen 3).
That said, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhMYmEu8gks
There is a performance boost from using 4 sticks instead of 2
Crazy deal, ordered!
Thanks OP.
Is there a limit on how many you can order? Seems to be 1 at a time but I'm up to 3 kits already :p
the 3200 CL16 RGB is also under the deal for $97.09 (from $122)
are these Micron E and easily overclockable to 3600?
order cancelled :(
Back to $110….
Added to cart, did 5 mins worth of browsing, now unavailable :-(
thanks OP. ordered 2 for my new build!
can't add to cart? sold out?
One thumb up 1 order cancelled …
me too, said my credit crad has issue but i just ordered sth else and that item not been cancelled.
same cries
Available again on the 18th of Oct
Just bloody missed it!
Had my order cancelled, bummer.
Signed up for Prime and now it's out of stock
Same here :(
I'm gonna cancel my prime and try to get a refund
Back to 125.8, not even 110 lol
I missed it. :(
Is it sold out won't let me add to card!?
cancelled as well :(
Order went in ok but then canceled 10 minutes later.
I ordered this and hoped to use it with a ASUS TUF Gaming X570-Plus, but Crucial says they aren't compatible. Is it worth risking it and but the TUF anyway or should I just look for another board?
Should we get 10 dollar coupons if it's gonna be cancelled?
Damn thats insane for an awesome kit.
I got 2 sets of these running in tomahawk b450 3600 setup running sweetly for nearly a yr.. paid fair bit more .
Woulda gladly grabbed couple sets for my other sons upcoming graduation pc build..
well done to the lucky few who got some 👍Lucky got some.
I was eying the 32gb led ones. slower but shiny , $187.73
