Low profile 64gb ddr 4 3600mhz cl16 memory thats doesn't cost a furtune

Is there such ram,memory when i don't want mushkin ram ?
 
What's your clearance? What heatsink do you have causing the need? Do you need 64GB in the first place? Most don't amd unused RAK is a waste soo.... make sure you're using 32GB+ in the first place.

Corsair vengeance is low pro, kingston fury beast, crucial pro... there's a lot out there if you look. :)
 
I only add that there is no low-profile DDR4, meaning lower than standard. DDR3 had some low-profile series. DDR4 is like a regular DIMM without heatsinks, nothing less. The smallest heatsinks add 1mm.

Crucial went a weird way. The 3600 CL16 is discontinued, and the new series are 3200 CL22 1.20V. G.Skill has only taller kits like this. I don't trust Corsair DDR4 as there were weird problems with their Vengeance series. Kingston is fine, but no really low heatsinks. There are still many available options, but not so many in 32GB modules and it's max capacity for DDR4.

We are at the end of DDR4 life. Most brands went for higher capacity and low cost, so they do not have the best timings. I wouldn't invest in DDR4 unless it's for some high-end stuff like a workstation 4-8 channel motherboard that is not worth selling.
 
corsair vengeance lpx is 33.53 mm in height

They don't make them in 64gb kit in 3600mhz cl16

Fan over the ram, so i guess 40mm max if i dont wanna raise the fan

Today im doing ram after i upgraded my cpu and gpu

I could go with only 32 gb 3600mhz cl 14 but that is mabye more expensive than 64gb 3600mhz cl 16

I do have 64gb ram and it's only 3200mhz cl16 i managed tune from 16-20-20-38 to 16-19-19-36

There wasn't any 64gb 3600mhz cl16 when i bougth my kit so if i wanna use 3600mhz ram (or higher mhz memory underclocked to 3600mhz or 3733mhz cl16) i wanna know becuase i can't find any i think isn't to expensive and not mushkin (one of the cheapest ram,memory)

Rysen 7 5700x3d + Asus rtx 4070 dual evo (finally some higher tier cpu and gpu not just the cpu).

So i think i will still be fine after the rtx 5000 gpu have been replaced with a new serie, doom eternal maxed out in 2560x1440 and as i remember still above 100fps :)

Don't need a hot ryzen or intel 13-14 gen + the price a much faster 5000 gpu cost

I wouldn't waste money on a new 64GB kit when you already have 3200 CL16. 3600 will be barely faster, and you can always overclock your kit ... it's only a matter of voltage and timings.
I don't know what to recommend, as every higher binned 2x32GB kit is expensive, discontinued, or has tall heatsinks.
The best are Hynix A-die or Micron B-die kits. Microns were good only in Crucial Ballistix kits, and those are discontinued. Hynix A is often in a more expensive series, but they overclock up to ~4600.
 
Something cheap like 4000 or 4400 mhz ripjaws v is just very tall but could do 3733mhz cl 16

If someone with an extrene itx pc with an i9 or ryzen 5900x, and a high tier gpu what do thay use if they want 64gb low profile memory, ram?
 
Ditch the fan. They aren't needed at all. Problem solved, no?
mabye

Seems like it's mostley g skill 3600mhz cl16 ram

I so earlier this year a video with new thermalright air coolers, onebwith one 140 mm fan in the middle as i remember + they are super cheap, might look into that if i want a 64gb 3600mhz cl16 kit even when the front fan at the rear also could be an option
 
Many new ITX cases have space for AIO coolers. If not, then for X3D CPUs are enough smaller coolers that don't interfere with RAM and fit into small cases like DeepCool AN600 or Noctua NH-L12SX77 (this one has to be turned around 180° so you can use any height of RAM on ITX mobo, and is expensive). Both coolers are more than fine for Ryzen 7600 or 7800X3D in Fractal Terra or other tight ITX cases. I wasn't testing them with other CPUs.
 
no no no not going for noctua,not worth it when you have thermalright, thermalright if the 140mm cooler is dirt cheap
 
would prefer 2 ram stick

yes

Also if you use high speed ram it's more difficult to get them to run at rated speed with 4 ram sticks, mabye thats why many 64gb 3600mhz ram kits are cl18

You might be right about that. In your BIOS did you set your XMP profile?
