Are OC 3200 CL16 identical to 3600 CL 16?
Hello, Since I am new to the pc world I am not too familiar with it all. I've done my homework though and read that 3600 CL16 is the sweet spot for AMD Ryzen. However I see many people say that OC ram is easy especially from 3200 to 3600. I am currently in between two rams that are in the same range for my new PC but cannot decide which is better. The main difference being the specs but also that the 3200 is so much more aesthichly pleasing. I am sure there is more to OC so if anyone can let me know if there would be much of a performance difference and if just getting the 3600 is better. 3200 - Trident Z Royal - https://www.gskill.com/product/165/299/1...B-(2x16GB) 3600 - Crucial Ballistix - https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/bl2k16g36c16u4w Thank you for your help!
The 3600c16 memory will outperform the 3200c16. If you can upgrade the 3200c16 to 3600c16, then moving to 3600c16 through 3600c14 would likely be even better.
The 3600mhz model is quicker than the 3200mhz version, though the difference isn't huge.
Generally, Ryzen CPUs handle speeds up to 3200 MHz well. Going beyond 3200 MHz brings only minor improvements, usually around 1-3% in gaming performance. The choice is yours—it's not that significant. Edit: A 3200 MHz processor versus a 3600 MHz one should offer roughly a 1-3% boost in FPS for most games.
