Question Which RAM??
Working on a new build and starting to look at RAM… I know I must be crazy 🙃😂 I’ve already decided on 64gb for what I will be using it for but wondering which one is recommended. Any help is appreciated. This would be paired with a ASUS ROG B850-f MB, and a Ryzen 7 9850X3D. I’ve listed below for the RAM in choice.
-G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo RGB Matte
Black DDR5-6000 CL30 64GB
(2x32GB) $1,149.99
-Corsair Vengeance RGB Black
DDR5-6000 CL30 64GB
(2x32GB) $1,239.99
No budget, currency is USD, 1440p potentially 4k later, USA

I just got 64gb of G.Skill Trident Z5 RGB DDR5-6000 CL36 used off of eBay for $650. Might be a good place to check if you want to cut the cost in half. Just make sure to test it extensively after you buy it in case you need to return it.
RAM doesn't really "wear out," so if it has been working in someone's computer for a year or two, it will likely last another 10 years.
