Hi, you're considering memory speeds for a Core i7-10700K build. Your Ryzen system has 32GB of 5800X chips and you're weighing 3600CL16 vs 3200MHz RAM. It might make sense to save a bit over $40 if the higher speed doesn’t significantly boost performance on that processor.

A 3600 and particularly a 3200G (which is really Zen+) is essentially a step back compared to a 10700K. Opt for a 5800X instead, as it performs slightly better, or stick with the 10700K.

I was discussing memory speeds and added more details to the original entry.

Yeah, that's likely to have little impact on Intel, particularly for gaming. Intel doesn't rely as much on memory as Ryzen does. Speed remains the best advantage, though returns slow down at higher performance levels.

I believe a refresh would help, but here’s the update. If you need more clarity, feel free to share the details. For your setup, using 3600MHz on a Core i7-10700K might not boost performance noticeably compared to a 3200MHz option. The extra $40 could be worth it depending on your needs.

I see the adjustment after sharing. It seemed identical until I reviewed again. I've updated my response above.
