      Wow! Even cheaper.

        Wow you've been beaten! How do you feel.

      Nice but for $1.38 difference I would pick Amazon AU for delivery speed and warranty.

  • Not bad, cheapest I got was 3600 C18 for $200 a few months ago with a wireless 1 coupon.

    • 3200/C16 = 3600/C18 anyway

      • Apparently 3600 is best on AMD but I am sure difference IRL is negligible.

        • Yeah, that's what I read too. I currently have 4 x 8GB sticks of 4000Mhz RAM running on my 3900X system, but clocked down to 3600Mhz.

          I've actually been looking to upgrade to 128GB and wasn't sure whether or not to get 3600Mhz again or if 3200Mhz would be OK.

          Anyone know if there Is there any deals for 128GB or 64GB 3600Mhz RAM going? Anything around $400 AUD.

          Also, is it better to buy a 128GB kit (4 x 32GB) or would it be fine to buy two 64GB kits, or could there be compatibility issues running to separate kits even if they are the same model?

        Latency is the same but data transfer rate is less @ 3200

  • Why do you guys need so much?

    • +5

      Because it feels good when you have more

      I use this in my server. I don’t use all of it but on average I use around 32gigs at idle so I have another 32 spare for more docker containers or VMS!

      • What is using so much ram? I bought a 32GB stick recently to use as a ramdisk for transcoding, but at idle it was only sitting at 2GB (excluding the unused memory cache that linux keeps around)

        $ free —giga
        total used free shared buff/cache available
        Mem: 58 2 22 0 33 55
        Swap: 0 0 0

        • Am I missing something? Why use a RAM disk for transcoding and not just RAM? It's not 1987 and we're booting off a 360k floppy and jumping around the room because we turned 32k of our 512k RAM into a RAM disk so we now have a C: drive for the first time.

        • I run a few minecraft servers, a DayZ server, Jellyfin and associated containers, Immich, ollama… probably a few more I’m missing

          • @sombreserotonin: Do you use an actual server system with ECC memory or just a regular desktop?

            • +1

              @DeToxin: Any computer can be used as a server :)

              But yeah I get what you’re saying - both.

              I have an actual server that I recently got secondhand for pretty cheap - looking at migrating my home lab setup onto that or at least partially onto that. The rack mount server has ECC and my home lab server that uses the ram in this deal, does not have ECC support.

      Chrome

      • Lol

        • I kid, I kid. Everyone should be using Firefox these days. Personally I never quit even when Chrome came out.

      I'm compensating

    • Machine learning, just holding data in RAM while training rather than reading from the disk each time it's needed can shave a few minutes off each iteration, which adds up over hundreds of iterations.

  • The cheapest I got was $171 for 3600 C18 from Amazon AU in October last year, but it was limited to a strange maximum order of 3 kits per account.

  • Question for tech experts. Which do you think is more useful? Faster RAM, e.g. DDR5 vs DDR4, or more ram, e.g. 32GB vs 16GB (assuming you had to choose faster or more, but not both).

    • +6

      It's important to highlight that you can't just swap out DDR4 for DDR5. The motherboards and CPUs are compatible with either DDR4 or DDR5 generally.
      But in terms of clock speed versus capacity, it depends what you're doing really. If you're only playing games and you're worried about every possible frame you might care about picking a decently high clock rate and wouldn't need much capacity. If you work on the PC and you like to have a bunch of apps open and 200 tabs in Chrome then the extra capacity is likely to be helpful

    • +1

      This depends entirely on what you are doing so it's impossible to answer simply. Memory speed/timings are probably the most complex aspect of all PC enthusiast topics that affect mainstream users.

      • +3

        The size matters mate. Doesn't matter what your Mrs tells you about your speed.

        • I have a mat who says he's small but like a sewing machine LOL

    • If you don't know then more RAM would be better than faster

    • More RAM is more useful up to the limit your tasks need (otherwise the performance degradation due to swap used instead may be very significant).

      So if your task uses 20GB, 32 GB of RAM would work much better, if tasks fit to 12GB at most, for example, 16GB of faster RAM would be slightly better.

    • A good deal on X for Y would be awesome.

    • a good deal on 13900k for am4 would be great.

      • -3

        Is that meant to be funny.

  • Thanks got a set, huge upgrade from my 16gb 2600hz set

  • +1

    I can finally switch my default browser to Chrome.

  • I've already got G.Skill Ripjaws V 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 - should I just swap these out for the 2 x 32gb? or buy another 16gb set kind of thing?

    • +1

      If you're able to try it out and test if it's all compatible you can just purchase another 16gig set, if it works great, if not return it and buy this i guess.
      Make sure the returns policy from the store you buy from allows that type of return though.

  • Careful if you run a Ryzen system, I had some of the lower Mhz LPX sticks and they gave me random bluescreens on my 5900x. It might be better these days with BIOS updates etc but just a warning.

    • Yeah i have issues with my patriot viper

      and i got a new corsair vengence 3200mhz 32gb kit

      still feel like it aint stable at xmp settings.

    • I'm using this with a 5600G at the moment and I haven't had any stability issues, been around 23 days of system uptime so far

    • Could you elaborate on the bluescreens with your 5900x? I have similar ram and my 5900x gets random blue screens or freezes, but with a 5500 installed it's perfectly fine. Trying to figure out if it's the ram compatibility or the CPU.
