I'm building a new desktop PC and looking for recommendations on DDR5 RAM. My budget is around $150-200 for 32GB. I'll be using it primarily for gaming at 1440p and some video editing work. Should I prioritize speed (6000MHz+) or stick with more affordable 5600MHz kits? Also wondering about brands - are G.Skill, Corsair, and Kingston still the go-to options for reliability? Any specific models you'd recommend? Thanks!

For gaming and general use, I'd recommend the G.Skill Trident Z5 RGB DDR5-6000 CL30. It's a sweet spot for performance without breaking the bank. The timings are solid and it plays nice with most motherboards. I've been running a 32GB kit (2x16GB) for about 8 months now with zero issues on my Z790 board.

DDR5 6000 CL30 is the best choice. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=DDR5+6000+CL30&------123456890?7649-20
