Planning to purchase a collection of rams for Cyber Monday, but the 4 x 8GB model is unavailable. Two bundles of 2 x 8GB are in stock. Does the difference really count? Also, the listing specifies it's for AMD, which isn't a big deal. Would you like to buy: G.SKILL Trident Z Neo (Designed for AMD Ryzen) 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3600 (PC4 28800) Desktop Memory Model F4-3600C16D-16GTZNC? Currently using: i7 8700K ROG STRIX Z370-E Gaming (Dual Channel Memory Architecture)

Both options produce identical outcomes since quad channels are only available on servers. They will operate in dual channel mode.

You're using an Intel setup and picking RAM according to your Ryzen configuration. Since Intel doesn't require high-speed RAM, its design allows solid performance at 3000MHz or lower. In contrast, Ryzen processors benefit more from higher clock speeds, so increasing the frequency can boost their efficiency.

Yes, you're suggesting a performance improvement by using 3000 instead of 3600.

Some desktop platforms support quad-channel processing, such as the AMD Threadripper series.
