At least 3000mhz.

These ones I found for ok price but I'm not sure if they're compatible with my board according to the qvl list I can't find them on there

Yes at least 3000 mhz but what brand and it's the Samsung b-die something that I really need to look for

If someone could put up I link to the rhyme that they're using in the same setup that I'm using it would be very much appreciated

Thank you I'll take some time to read over that open to suggestions really interested in some bomb-proof Ram

You want TridentZ they are some of the best ram out there. Forget those QVL lists, update your bios right away when grabbing new motherboard, then once it reboots after update, enter bios and enable Dram Xmp mode.

^this

however AMD uses AMP not XMP. To translate XMP to AMP you need to activate and load DOCP in BIOS on Asus Motherboards.

Trident z (no need for royal), corsair dominator platinum or vengeance Pro, they are amongst the best you can get and all use Samsung.

any 3000+ cl 16-
or speed/cl > 180+, higher is better

at 3000MHz or better yet 3200MHz nearly all of the RAM uses Samsung B-Dies.

Micron sells only their own brands: Crucial and Ballistix (for consumers).
Hynix (A-Die and M-Die) is mostly found in Ripjaws Modules at up to 3000MHz. Soem of the 3000MHz and all of the 3200MHz modules are again Samsung B-Die
