Stylish dual-channel DDR4 RAM kit, guaranteed to operate at an effective clock speed of 3200 MHz. It consists of a pair of single-sided 8-chip modules with a capacity of 8 GB each (16 GB in total). It is positioned as a product of the middle price category in 2016, aimed at demanding gamers who practice moderate overclocking, and enthusiasts who can get an additional performance boost by fine-tuning the operating modes of the main system components. It is intended for a complete set of performant multi-purpose house and game systems. The Patriot Memory Viper 4 DDR4 2x8Gb PV416G320C6K RAM kit has a high degree of compatibility and can work in configurations based on Intel Core processors (from 6th to 12th generation), as well as AMD Ryzen processors (Zen / Zen2 / Zen3). For stability during...overclocking, passive cooling is provided in the form of low-profile aluminium radiators painted in red or black. To quickly automatically set the speed mode claimed by the manufacturer (DDR4-3200 with CL16-18-18-38 at 1.35V), you need a motherboard that supports XMP 2.0 technology (without it, you will need to manually configure the UEFI BIOS settings).

Series Patriot Memory Viper (gaming)
Model overview based on user reviews  
The Patriot Memory Viper 4 DDR4 2x8Gb is praised for its affordable price and good performance, especially at higher frequencies like 3600MHz. Users appreciate its overclocking potential, although some have noted that XMP profiles may not work optimally on AMD Ryzen systems, requiring manual adjustments. The RAM is generally considered reliable and durable, with one user mentioning it could last over 20 years at 1.35v. However, there are concerns about chip variability, as different revisions may contain different chips, affecting performance. Some users have experienced issues with achieving the advertised frequencies, particularly with certain chip types. Despite these challenges, the RAM is recommended for those willing to manually configure settings, and it offers good value for gaming PCs when paired with compatible components.

One of the best kits for Ryzen 3600/3800 in terms of price-quality.
17 May 2021 
I manually set the frequency to 3600 MHz with timings 18-19-19-19-38. I came across Hynix C-Die memory with good overclocking potential.
Started immediately at 3600 frequency
XMP 3733 MHz does not work on Ryzen 3600

good model, liked it
7 September 2019 
I took 4 sticks of 8GB 3733 MHz 17-21-21. A bit of theory for Ryzen owners. Infinity Fabric (the processor bus) always operates at the memory frequency. Infinity Fabric has its own frequency limit. In most processors, this is 3600MHz (although you might get lucky). In Zen2 (Ryzen 3000), you can set a divider so that Infinity Fabric operates at half the memory speed, but this greatly increases latency and is only worth it with very expensive sticks that go way beyond 4000MHz. By default, the divider is off. If your computer doesn't start at all when you run memory on an XMP profile at 3733MHz, it's a sure sign that the processor can't handle it, and the memory frequency needs to be lowered to 3600. On my Ryzen 3600, the memory runs at 3600MHz 16-19-19-39 CR1 with 1.4V. 3600MHz 16-18-18-38 CR1 results in a blue screen, 3733 MHz doesn't boot BIOS.
P.S Modification to 3600 MHz is the same memory with a different XMP.
Price. 3600MHz 16-19-19-39 CR1 for 6k RUB for a set of 2 sticks of 8GB each. This is not a bad price.
XMP doesn't work on AMD Ryzen. Need to manually overclock. They say Crucial Ballistix Sport LT DDR4 3200 MHz at the same price gets up to 16-18-18-38 CR1 at 3600 frequency. However, maybe they just got lucky. There are several revisions of this memory with different chips. You can't know the chip manufacturer before purchase. After purchase, without removing the heatsink, it might also be impossible. No program detects them. I got sticks with an XMP profile of 17-21-21, although the site says 17-19-19. Don't fall for the provocation. Although 3733 MHz 17-19-19 is typical for Samsung b-die, and 3733 MHz 17-21-21 for Hynix-CJR, no one will put such expensive memory here. It's not possible to overclock much higher than XMP.

Take 3000+ and don’t worry
11 July 2019 
Guys, those who say it only works at stock or base frequencies - I have no idea how you're trying to overclock it, amateur overclockers, but on a fresh Z390 paired with an 8600K, a 3200mhz kit reached 3466mhz with timings of 16-18-18-36 at a voltage of 1.35V without any problems, everything works perfectly. If you are pairing modules with an xmp-profile with budget motherboards that don't support overclocking in principle, then it won't work. If you're building a gaming PC - be prepared to spend the money on appropriate components.
If you pair it with processors with an unlocked multiplier and Z-series motherboards, get kits from 3000+mhz, it will be quite enough for a comfortable experience.
Great memory for its price
You can boost it by an average of +200mhz without deteriorating timings and unnecessary hassle
