Enhancing RAM capacity to 32GB for MoGraph
Enhancing RAM capacity to 32GB for MoGraph
Hey! You're thinking about a RAM upgrade for After Effects, Cinema4D, and Premiere. Right now you're using a 16GB stick (G.Skill Trident Z RGB 16GB) and are eyeing the 32GB options from G.Skill and HyperX. Your budget is tight—around 85€ for the new sticks—and you're considering prices like 198€ and 170€.
The 32GB sticks you mentioned have similar speeds (3200Mhz CL16), but differences between brands can matter. G.Skill and HyperX both offer high-performance options, though they may vary slightly in build quality, cooling, or compatibility nuances. Performance gains from switching to a 32GB stick are usually minimal unless you're running very memory-heavy projects.
Between the two, HyperX and G.Skill are both reputable, but HyperX often has better thermal management and sleeker designs. However, for most users, the jump from 16GB to 32GB won’t be dramatic. If you want peace of mind, go with a reliable 32GB stick in CL16 or CL14—both will work well with your Ryzen and CPUs.
If you're open to alternatives, consider 4GB LPDDR5 RAM for even better speed, but that's a bigger investment. Let me know what you decide!
