I have a setup with an i5-9600K processor, 16 GB of HyperX 2933 RAM (two 8 GB modules), and a 2070 Ultra HD monitor at 1080P with 144 Hz. Would adding more RAM—like 32 or even 64 GB—make a noticeable difference? I’m curious about the impact on performance. Thanks, Corey.

Only additional storage will be added, and occasionally this might need lowering the frequency, which can affect performance.

A near dual-rank setup offers minor advantages, likely achieved with 4x8 single-rank chips.
