You pay for color, not speed.

It appears the cost of RAM is dropping on Amazon lately.

Did you test Ryzen Master? Your RAM is 3000MHz E-DIE and it works smoothly at 3200.

I wouldn't upgrade your RAM unless you achieve better speed with similar or lower latency. I'm using a 3700x and 3200MHz C16 chip, and I haven't noticed any major performance drop. A 3600MHz C14 would be a noticeable improvement, but unless you're ready to invest in top-tier RAM, it's not worth the effort.

But this matches what you expect. A standard ram costs around 80 euros here, while the same model from Bdie is priced at 150 euros. I attempted to install the Corsair version, but it didn’t work—only the XMP profile ended up being recognized. The GSKILL setup took me about an hour, with times between 3200 and 3600, almost identical. Of course, it doesn’t significantly improve performance (I was aware of that), but I was interested in its stability, which it provides. Great!
