I was just shopping around today, and I had picked out these 2 options:



Waiting to see once 9800X3D reviews come out though to see what people claim is "best" as far as frequency and timings go.

I agree on the wait and see idea. Some of the reviews that pop up are going to cover ram speed optimizations.

There is a GN video that came out yesterday that talks about how the 9000x3d is a design flip (litterally) and it is likely going to have its own sweet spot

This is the video I was thinking of the mentioned the design changes with the 9000x3d series

Even mentioned all the other x3d designs were literally born from a skunkworks project.

I like the trident stuff combined with the AMD personally. It's been really solid.

I had a negative experience with GSkill Trident, they died on me and I had to RMA it. The two brands that let me down in the past 3 years were GSkill and Mushkin.

My go to brands these days are Crucial (and Micron), Kingston and Corsair.

Based on the wave of benchmarks this morning 6000CL30 like that seems like a good candidate especially at that price.
