Trying to get some ram for a new build. Searching around and it appears the Crucial Ballistix 3200 CL16 (non rgb) is a popular one on various tech sites.

Given how common it is, thought it would surely be available in NZ but seems not.

Are there any other options apart from getting them through Amazon as I would much prefer supporting local business? Or similar great value ram that has e-die for oc and actually available in NZ (without RGB)? Looking for 32GB (2x16).

Thanks.

what kind of build is it? ifs its a ryzen one you would be better with 4x8gb as it will be slightly faster than 2x16gb of the same type

 

GSkilll trident and ripjaw series along with corsair vengeance are also pretty good and are not to expensive

Bought a couple of sets off of this guy and they were all good: https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/marketplace/computers/components/memory-ram/16gb-or-more/listing/2922649908

edit:
By good, I mean load xmp, bump to 3600, done. Probably more to be had but that's for another day.
