Hi friends  As title states. Looking for any decent B-die kits. Willing to pay international shipping for large quantity or good deals. Thanks for looking. |

Ddr4 b-die kits are easy to find. Tons of them.
Binned high spec mems are rare.
What platform (s) are you interested in ?
A1 or A2 b-die ?

I may get into Skylake -> Rocket Lake eventually, but I am focused on kits for AM4 for now. I have limited knowledge on A0 vs A1 vs A2. Forgive the noob question, but isn't A2 best for newer platforms? |

Yes, A2 is for AM4.

A0 has eight memory ICs evenly distributed on the circuit board and A1 and A2 have two groups of four ICs separated in the middle of the circuit board: |

Tristan, There are basically two ways to approach memories for AM4. Both very useful. 1) Very rare set ddr4 4000cl14 ( 14-14-14-35 ). For symmetrical use of the uncore, if the set is any good and IMC cooperates you will do 4000/12/12/12/28. 2) Another option that is very useful when mem speed is more important than uncore is any A2 high binned set that will do 4800/14/13/13/30. Both solutions are useful and owning both sets has you covered for any AM4 benchmark, any cpu, but with some decent ( at least ) motherboard. George |

I would buy DR a good DR kit first. SR is way more easy to find. And one of the best Mem kits on AMD is Flare 3200c14. But basically it's for older AM4 CPUs. It's A0. Newer prefer A2 so 4000c14, 3600c14 or 4133c17 is good. On DR 4266c17, 3600c14
You also can buy every random kit and bin it for your purpose. Don't get to focused on binnes. Buy every cheap kit and test it. On most older AM4 CPUs it will be good enough. Only on newer and very good CPUs higher binned ones are more important
