Kudos to Patriot for being one of few companies to not foist off silly RGB lighting onto people uninterested in buying it. I hope they sell really well and encourage the company to continue to leave RGB out.
Would not you need to radically slow down the internal Ryzen bus (IF) to 1:2 instead of 1:1 if you run memory over 3200? After all, the buses are not really decoupled.
Its unclear if the IF slows down, or the RAM to IF link slows down, the difference being that instead of the the core to core communication slowing down, along with the IF-from-RAM to core communication, instead the core to core communication speed remains the same whereas the RAM to IF link has higher latency and the IF-from-RAM is just as fast as core to core communication.
However, what's more important is that if the RAM can run at 4000 then you can down clock to 3733 (IIRC) and then you'd have the best of both worlds.

not the best option, because tcd <10nsFreckledTrout - Thursday, July 11, 2019 - link
Can you elaborate?Dug - Thursday, July 11, 2019 - link
No RGB? Sign me up.haukionkannel - Thursday, July 11, 2019 - link
Yeah! Really nice to see memory without rpg! Just hoping for a Little bit better timings and larger memory size...Alexvrb - Friday, July 12, 2019 - link
But how will I level up my performance and enchant my motherboard if it's not an RPG?Irata - Friday, July 12, 2019 - link
Add as many stickers as possible - works great to triple horse power and improve handling for cars ;)PeachNCream - Thursday, July 11, 2019 - link

The whole IF slows down for 2:1, not some IF 2 RAM. There are no registers in between.haukionkannel - Thursday, July 11, 2019 - link
The limit is 3733, so you can go guite high!peevee - Friday, July 12, 2019 - link
Which limit? And source?FreihEitner - Thursday, July 11, 2019 - link
Hooray, quality high speed memory without RGB LEDs all over it! I will keep Patriot in mind when putting together my Ryzen 3xxxx/X570 system.piroroadkill - Friday, July 12, 2019 - link
Very very nice!!! No stupid power-sucking RGB LEDs, and the heatsink isn't an enormous abomination. Good work Patriot.piroroadkill - Friday, July 12, 2019 - link
But... the timings aren't the best. SO CLOSE
