how much difference does faster ram make?
your board probably won't support 4000 even though the specs say otherwise. The best you'd go is 3600 or 3866. I usually stick to 3600 for booting, maybe 1.1v is needed just to start up. For 3600/3866, 1.2v could be necessary, and 1.25v might be required for DDR4000. It really depends on your specific model and setup. For your case, I recommend going with 3600.
This setting isn't suitable for extended periods, it's not useful.
The review mentioned needing 1.35 volts at 4000 MHz for optimal performance.
Don't rely on them, just stay under the limit. Every IC has unique features, and it also varies by the RAM modules used. VCPO and SA? If yes, skip that. This unit isn't designed for such frequencies, so it'll need more adjustments. The 3200 model is meant for 3200.
Sure, I'll aim for 4000. If needed, I can push it up to 3600. After watching the videos, I was impressed by how many games saw a significant jump in FPS from 2400 to 3200.
Typically, as long as the CPU's memory controller is solid, it can handle any RAM you install within normal limits. The speeds Intel lists are their intended rates, and on secured boards, that’s the top performance. Your RAM should operate smoothly at around 3200MHz.
