Enhancing the outdated 2133 RAM module!
Enhancing the outdated 2133 RAM module!
I work with a 3900x now and the question is: 3200 c14 versus 3600 c16 (both priced similarly in my area). If I buy the 3200 c14 kit, I intend to keep overclocking everything at 3600 c15.75 (which is above 3600 c16). My worry is whether this is safe and if it would shorten the lifespan of the RAM compared to using the standard 3600 c16. This offer seems unusually attractive. Note: I'm just starting out with "ram stuff" discussions. I have only a bit of theory from some threads and no real experience, which is why I'm asking these questions.
Ensure dram voltage stays within safe limits and keep SOC below specified thresholds.
Checking the voltage requirements at stock speed for the 3200 C14.
Review the remaining specifications. If you purchase it, verify with Taiphoon Burner. For overclocking enthusiasts, there are probably superior kits available. Patriot Viper Steel 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-4400 CL19 Memory (PVS416G440C9K) - PCPartPicker notes this model is slightly pricier than typical options. With a 3900x you'll need to adjust settings yourself. It operates at 1.35v in stock mode.
