The Best RAM Memories To Use With AMD Ryzen Processors
Since their arrival on the market, AMD Ryzen processors have suffered from compatibility issues with RAM. Yes, it is true that with the passage of time and with the subsequent revisions of AGESA this situation has improved considerably. But, even so, it is still far from being as good as the memory compatibility for the Intel platform. Let’s see in this article what are the best RAM memories that we can use for the AMD platform.
The compatibility problems of AMD on its AMD Ryzen platform come from the time it was launched in 2017. But, perhaps we should explain this aspect in more detail, before getting into the matter.
AMD Ryzen Processors
Not that AMD Ryzen processors are incompatible with certain RAM. Normally, all processors in that AMD range, both 1st and 2nd Generation, are compatible with any RAM memory that has frequencies up to 2,400 MHz The problem is that the performance of these processors is closely linked to the frequencies of the RAM memory, since the speed of the Infinity Fabric bus that these processors use to interconnect the chaplets with each other, is the same as the frequency of the RAM that we have.
Thus, it is true that AMD Ryzen processors lose a lot of performance as the RAM frequency drops below 3,200 MHz this frequency is where the processors give their best performance, at least for the first models, the Summit Ridge. For the second generation models (the Pinnacle Ridge), the frequency cap is 3,400 MHz for Raven Ridge APUs, this statement is even more critical, as it also affects the performance of integrated graphics.
