Hello, I'm curious about how memory affects benchmark results. Previously, I had a 32GB (four slots) Corsair Dominator DDR4 3200CX18 and scored around 20 points with a 13,800 score. Now I own a 64GB (four slots) GSkill Trident Z Neo 3600 C16, which is tuned for Ryzen, and my score has dropped to about 13,200. I'm a bit upset about losing roughly 600 points where you'd expect a slight improvement over the Corsair configuration, especially since the newer setup seems optimized for Ryzen. It's not a major issue but I'm wondering what might have caused this drop. My system specs are: RAM in proper slots, CPU is an AMD Threadripper 3960X, motherboard is ASUS Zenith II Extreme, GPU is 2080 Super, storage includes two Samsung NVMe PCIe 3.0 x4 drives, power supply is 1200W, and cooling is via NZXT Kraken X72.
