Adjusting overclock settings for cl13 ram without sacrificing original timing parameters
Adjusting overclock settings for cl13 ram without sacrificing original timing parameters
Hey everyone,
I'm checking out a 32GB Corsair Lpx RAM kit with CL13 timing, 2133MHz, and 1.2 volts. My question is, can I increase the frequency without adjusting the default timings just by changing the voltage? I'm running Ryzen and want to maximize performance. Also, my motherboard will be an ASUS Croshair Vll with a Ryzen 7 2700X. Would 3000MHz be too much for it? A few users have managed 2666MHz at 1.35V without changing timings.
First time receiving a downvote, thank you
My suggestion would be to choose a 2666 MHz Kit and try to increase it to 3000 MHz (what I've done on my system) or opt for a 3000 MHz model to be certain it meets your requirements.
As mentioned, adjusting the RAM speed can be quite challenging when trying to maintain stability.

Hi novajetfire333,
Your memory kit is designed for a specific frequency.
Overclocking can be successful yet challenging, and RAM overclocking requires careful handling.
You'll need to experiment on your own, but I think going from 2133MHz to 3000MHz in the kit is quite ambitious.

Overclocking RAM can be tricky, so it might not always work.
It’s a delicate process—best done yourself, though I think going to 3000 MHz from a 2133MHz kit is quite a challenge.

Oh man... I didn’t mean to downvote your answer. I was just curious about the arrows. Sorry.
I’m looking for a fast kit with 3000mz or higher and minimal clash, without breaking the bank. I want to build a powerful workstation for data science without getting into expensive hardware like Threadripper or Xeon. Thanks for your quick reply... sorry again for the downvote.
This is the first time I received a downvote, but thank you.
