I am surprised to hear the negative sentiment on the memory market as for most users who build computers don't always look for the high-end memory. In fact, I am not sure how much performance gain one get from a high-end RAM on a gaming system.
- posguy 10y agoIIRC it can give a 30% to 40% performance boost on APU based systems, as the increased bandwidth to the GPU allows for much faster processing. Alternatively, Intel decided to put a few hundred megs of cache on their iGPU, which has made their graphics performance much better, and lessened the gains from increased Ram speed. https://semiaccurate.com/2014/01/15/exploring-effect-memory-bandwidth-amds-kaveri/ https://semiaccurate.com/2014/01/15/exploring-effect-memory-...
