Looking to enhance your system's memory. You're currently using two 8 GB 2400 MHz Corsair Vengeance RAM sticks and are evaluating a upgrade to two 16 GB 3600 MHz Corsair Vengeance RAM units. This should boost performance by about half and double your storage capacity. You're also weighing the option of purchasing four sticks. There are two listings available—one significantly cheaper than the other—and you're questioning which offers better value or if color matters. The first option is $155, while the second is $200.

Both options match in timing, performance, and delay. 64gbs might be too much for gaming and editing unless you need it. 32gbs is typically sufficient.

Likely accurate, though at the moment 9 out of my 16 performances are running solely on idle system.

You should be okay with 32 gbs unless you're doing daily video editing, CAD work, or simulations. Just trying to save some money and support the chip shortage.

The speed will rise noticeably with a 50% boost in frequency. Although it might not hit exactly half the rate, adding more cycles per second will still lead to a substantial improvement. Practical tests confirm that upgrading the 5820k to the 5600X model delivers a 25% performance gain.

The range from 2400 to 3600 Hz isn't double the frequency; it only matters if your system's RAM speed is a constraint. Additionally, using four sticks tends to be more challenging than two for the memory controller.

2400 multiplied by 1.50 equals 3600.
2400 times 2.0 gives 4800.
Your statement was correct.
