Choosing between DDR4 single and dual ranks involves deciding between Micron B-die and E-die options.
Choosing between DDR4 single and dual ranks involves deciding between Micron B-die and E-die options.
Requested Crucial Ballistix 2x16GB 3200Mhz CL16 single rank (B die) which has shown 10-20% lower performance compared to dual rank (E die). I’ve been struggling with decisions and feeling really lost, so I’m reaching out for guidance. Should I stick with the 2x16GB dual rank RAM or try the 4x8GB single rank option? I want my answer clear, as this is really frustrating. EDIT: think this addressed my question, but I can’t find a way to delete the topic option.
With a 32GB kit you'll automatically get dual rank memory, just like me. My setup uses a 32GB E-die kit.
4x 1R 8GB works just like 2x 2R 16GB. It doesn't matter much.
