I couldn't resist the build itch any longer and I'm starting a new Ryzen build. I've semi-kept up on the various memory threads but still not 100% clear. I'm looking for 32Gb of RAM @ 3200mhz (on a Taichi). Is that currently possible or is the BIOS not there yet? Normally I'm not terribly concerned about the QVL but given the issues, I'll make an exception in this case. There's no 16Gb 3200mhz sticks on the QVL so the closest I see would be https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820104749 that looks like my best bet, correct?

The BIOS are getting better across numerous vendors but it seems like some adopters have had a bit more luck than others. The Tai is certainly one the best boards on the market at the moment, however there is still no guarantee that you'll be able to run the sticks at full speed.

I might run it by ASRock support before spending that much on RAM that may or may not work. They were helpful when I inquired about my board and even sent me some visual references.

The RAM I linked to is on their QVL. I was more asking if anybody had tried successfully to get it (or a similar kit) running at 3200mhz on a Taichi.
