#What RAM to choose for my PC ?

Hi ! I've never touched the inside of my computer before, but recently decided to go from 16GB of RAM to 64GB.

The thing is, I have absolutely no idea how to choose the correct sticks. I believe mounting the RAM sticks myself won't be very complicated (or at least it didn't look very hard), but what to choose..

My current setup is as such :

CPU: 12 × 11th Gen Intel Core i5-11600K 3.90Ghz
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti/PCIe/SSE2
Motherboard: ASRock Z590 Phantom Gaming 4
PSU: No clue...

RAM: 2 × 8GB Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 2400MHz C16

(I'm running Arch, if it's important).

Going from what I already have, I was thinking about taking a 2x32Go Corsair Vengeance LPX (https://www.amazon.fr/Corsair-Vengeance-64GB-2x32GB-3600MHz/dp/B07YV9VYYY), as it's name suggests it's the same but with more capacity. But at the same time, I saw it was labeled as "optimized for AMD motherboards", which I don't have. So maybe there is a better option ?

Anyway, I'm sorry if this question is too long / stupid, but a little help would be very kind ^^

(also, sorry for my bad english... :/)

and as for the cpu and mobo you have, skipping corsair ram in general is advised, any good 3200 cl16 ram from kingston/teamgroup/lexar/adata would be more than ideal for it

#

and no, you don't need to OC the ram despite what jjtb7 says
