Is it worth upgrading 3200 CL16 RAM?
Check if 3200 MHz CL16 with 16-18-18-36 tuning works well for gaming.
It's personal, improvements are possible. The cost of 3600MHz kits isn't too high, so I'd choose them.
Optimize for the 8700K with peak performance, even at 4000+ Trident G skill level.
It depends on your specific situation, but generally upgrading from 3200 to 4000 MHz RAM can boost performance noticeably. You might see a 5-10% improvement in FPS, especially if you're already running at higher settings.
It depends on the specific changes; let me know what you're referring to so I can give you an accurate answer.
That price feels quite steep for just a minor FPS boost. It’s especially noticeable compared to what I’m getting with my 8700K setup, which already performs well across the board—except for AC: Odyssey.
It wouldn't really change much, considering we're discussing gaming FPS. You might see up to five more frames per second at most. Ignoring that expensive 4000MHz rigs, they're way pricier than a standard RAM upgrade. It doesn't seem worth it unless you're already running something around 3200MHz.
I’ve got a 32GB system with 3200 MHz RAM, and I’ve already invested around $200 on Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB RAM paired with the latest Capellix lighting. Those lights are reportedly the cutting-edge RGB options available.
