I just upgraded from a 14600KF to a 9800X3D. I sold everything except my RAM.

The RAM in question is this:

Patriot Viper Xtreme 5 DDR5 RAM 32GB (2X16GB) 8200MT/s CL38 Kit

I was thinking of selling it to buy a 6000MHz CL28/CL30 EXPO kit, but I've been doing some testing and managed to get this stable:

C28-36-36-36

Do you still think it's worth changing to another memory kit?

I also experimented with higher frequencies, and 7600MHz is stable, but I have higher latency there.

    Theres no reason to buy a worse binned kit – you have a Hynix die, thats all that matters. If you want the EXPO just find a 6000MT/s kit’s expo online and punch it in yourself! Or try Buildzoids easy ddr5 timings for ryzen 7000 (very popular YT vid). Your kit basically just has a better version of the same die that you find in 6000MT/s kits

    Zentimings is useful for sharing ram settings.

    You could try to get 8000Mt/s with 2000Mhz UCLK (MCLK=UCLK/2) and FCLK working (should be better performance).

    Otherwise underclock to 6000-6400Mt/s (make sure you use MCLK=UCLK), not all CPUs will do 6400Mt/s “1:1” so you’ll have to test for yourself.
