What's the best RAM for AMD Ryzen 9 9950X in terms of speed, stability, and compatibility? Looking for recommendations on brand, frequency, and timings for optimal performance. Thanks!

I just finished a 9950X build last week. Best bang‑for‑buck has been a 2×16 GB kit of DDR5‑6000 CL30 that supports AMD EXPO (I grabbed G‑Skill Flare X5).
• Runs at the DDR5‑6000 “sweet spot” for Zen 5’s memory controller.
• CL30 keeps the effective latency down to ~60 ns.
• EXPO profile = one‑click setup in BIOS 1.35 V.
If you multitask like crazy, grab the 2×32 GB version—the timings are a hair looser but you’ll never notice outside of synthetic benches.

Get this: G.SKILL Trident Z5 Royal Neo Series (AMD Expo) DDR5 RAM 32GB (2x16GB) 6000MT/s CL28-36-36-96 https://www.amazon.com/G-SKILL-Trident-CL28-36-36-96-Desktop-Computer/dp/B0DD2LKVMD?tag=5422-20

The optimal RAM setup is 6000MHz with CL30 latency. Higher frequencies may cause instability

DDR5 6000 CL30 is overall the best choice.
