Hello, I just completed a benchmark on userbenchmark.com and it indicated my RAM isn't reaching its full capacity. My system specs include an AMD Ryzen 7 3700X, Nvidia RTX 3070, WD Black SN750 SSD, and a G.SKILL Trident Z DDR4 3200 C16 with 4x8GB. I upgraded to a 4x8GB kit a few days later. The RAM is also marked as "Intel XMP 2.0 ready," but I wasn't aware of the differences between AMD and Intel versions at the time. It's worth checking if any BIOS adjustments are needed or if swapping in an AMD-optimized module would help. Also, considering a full 4x8GB upgrade might be better for performance.

benchmark performance varies a lot. if both kits match, enable xmp and proceed.

Use CPU-Z to verify the RAM speed. Once satisfied with your gaming experience, you can relax about these details.

I noticed you checked CPU-Z and are puzzled by its output. Here’s a summary of what it might show based on your description. Let me know if you’d like help interpreting the specific numbers or values.

Are you certain it's CPU-Z? It should resemble one of these screens based on the selected tab.

I concur, Userbenchmark often lacks consistency, affecting result dependability.

Execute AIDA64 via top tools for cache and memory testing. This provides a clearer view of your latency and bandwidth performance.

It seems you haven't used that function before, so the results might not be clear. As long as it's working, you're good to go. If you have concerns, consider following the advice from Shrimp.

I followed your advice and noticed the write speed and latency are lower than what I see on other sites for the RAM I have.
