Hardware / Re: Threadripper Builds

Taiphoon burner shown me half of my memory was B-Die, half cheapest Hynix die on offer. Funny because when I bought them, they had identical codes and everything.
Bought another b-die kit to swap into the hynix half and voila, not only does XMP boots, it super easily overclocks (from 3000 CL15 into 3200 CL14, ey yay).

But my point was that 3rd Gen Threadrippers have indeed no issue with any memory speed, and I have even seen one guy overclock his Corsair kit into 3766/CL16 @ 256GB on 3990X, just wow ! So there is that, Zen came long way since 2990WX..

Long time lurker, first time poster. Jumped on the bandwagon with a 3970X.

What memory are you running atm and for how much did you get the Samsung B-Die? I have 4 x 16Gb Micron E-Die but plan on upgrading to 128Gb (4 x 32Gb, less stress to memory controller) whenever the opportunity arises.
