Don't you want 3600mhz for infinity fabric or something though?
You gotta pump up the IF clock to 1800Mhz to run 3600Mhz optimally. 3200Mhz lets you run the IF stock.
Imagine using ddr4 in 2032
We'll probably be on DDR7 by then.
It'll run you $7000 by then.
CAS 2032
but that was 2yrs 6months ago
il just hop in my timemachine, 1 min
You need a time machine even for a day old deal.
I got this but the amz listing said its the older model. Do these two work together well?
Really as long as all the sticks are the same c rating and MHz they should work fine together
This.is.so.wrong.
Reason: Corsair have version numbers. Every RAM manufacturer(including corsair) will use all different brand of memory IC as long as the IC would OC to XMP freq' and timing.
For 3200c16, just about every single IC can achieve this OC. Which means you can almost end up with ANY memory IC under the sun.
You still think it's no big issue?
for example, even if they use the same IC, Samsung C-Die (v4.32) may not play well other other Samsung C-Dies
for another example, I've seen v3.41 (Micron 16Gbit chip), v3.31 (Micron 8Gbit), v4.32 (Samsung 8Gbit), v8.31 (Nanya 8Gbit) and more…… Tell me what's going to happen when you mix them? Please refer to page 9 of this sheet and ralate your answer with addressing difference between 8Gb/16Gb chip.
TL;DR is you aim to only use RAM coming from 1 package, wither the package contains 1, 2 or 4 sticks.
@OMGJL: Sorry, didn't know that. My bad.
My comment came from my experience with using 2 diff kits and them working fine. Guess it isn't recommended.
Only get LPX if you really need the low profile clearance, Corsair run slack CL16-20-20-38 timings because they rotate the cheapest Micron, Hynix or Nanya IC's for the Vengeance line
I'm assuming this won't affect Cities Skylines noticeably if that's my purpose?
I haven't play cities skyline before, but I do know that this game has a lot of props, cars etc all roaming around and is calculating in real time, games with a lot of props usually have way too much data to fit into the L1,L2,L3 cache…
TL;DR is although I don't know for sure, but I do think this game is likely to be RAM tminig sensitive.
I've just searched this and apparently it's not uncommon to use more than 30GB ram on a heavily modded Cities Skyline (game is a ram hog) so long as your board has 4 RAM slots and you are just adding this onto what you already have then you should be fine. The game is only designed to use 4 CPU cores too so when planning your build the CPU clockspeed will trump core count.
I bought some Corsair Vengeance 32gb last year to run alongside some expensive G.Skill I imported from the states like 5yrs ago and I have to run CL21 to keep my machine stable, my G.Skill is some very low timing ram which is why it was so expensive and I figured worst case I'd just have to run it at the same timings as the Corsair but apparently not.
Don't think there's really much difference in timings in the real world outside of benchmarks though thankfully. Clockspeed still beats timings.
I have the same set - has run 100% reliably at stock settings 24/7 for close to 3 years now with an AMD Asrock B450 Pro4/3700X setup.
Later Ryzens might benefit from faster RAM, Intel's less so. It will be marginal in the real world though and that is a good price!
