PRESENT
Was building a new PC. This ram is the best price I have seen.
It is even cheaper than AMAZON.
Other 3466MHz Ram are all over $500….

High end DDR4 ram is not cheap. And these are 8GB sticks, four of them.
But why do u need high end ddr4 ram? Ram is just ram isn't it? More ram means more applications can be stored. Speed pretty sure don't matter
No not all RAMs are the same. A $50 RAM stick isn't the same quality as a $100 stick in the same capacity. High end RAM sticks have been manufactured to a much higher standard and gone through a lot of quality testing. They only pick the best quality RAM memory chips on high end RAM sticks and put the low quality chips on the cheap RAM sticks. And speed does matter, try running Windows 10 on a DDR2 ram stick and see how it goes compared to a DDR3 or DDR4 ram stick.
RAM can run at different speeds but in most cases, a normal user will not notice it at all. However, I would certainly pay more for higher end RAM chips for reliability and aesthetic reasons.
Speed actually does matter, and has noticeable gains. Especially with Ryzen, as it's directly linked to the speed of the interconnect between the separate 4 core modules.
reliability - ALL desktop Ram should last longer then any other part of the PC in my experience.
Been working on ( in an office ) and building PC's since 1996 up until now.. I've never had a stick of ram fail. i have had faulty ram DOA out of the packaging back in the late 90's and early 2000's but never had a stick fail or become faulty. They are faulty from the start and were never 100% or they are perfect for the 5+ years you end up using them.
The only benefit to faster ram at the moment is in the high end were every % in performance makes a difference
8 core AMD Ryzen 1700-1800X or Intel i7 7820X would see the most benefit from 3000Mhz+ ram vs 2133Mhz
6 core AMD Ryzen 1600X or intel i7 7800X would also see a benefit from 3000Mhz+ ram vs 2133Mhz
The high end AMD systems are seeing close to a 10% frames per second improvement in games when making the jump from 2133Mhz to 3200Mhz RAM
You should always spend the money on a CPU and GPU first before looking at RAM… as those first two will always net you the most performance for your money.
Having more Ram compared to the speed of ram has always been more important for demanding applications that require it. Only now are we seeing the need for speed with these latest CPU's from AMD and intel.
over clocking.
This is the cheapest you'll ever find for the moment well for this set of RAM.
If you are using Ryzen or ThreadRipper, CPU's, and you're doing things other than gaming (productivity) then faster the RAM the better performance you will get.
In the past RAM speeds didn't matter much, platforms like Intel's Haswell or Skylake didn't see much improvement going beyond native speeds but Ryzen changes this however

https://www.eteknix.com/memory-speed-large-impact-ryzen-perf…However, that doesn't mean you should go out and splurge on RAM — if you've already got the best of everything for your build (most importantly CPU, GPU, Storage) then go ahead, buy expensive RAM but if you're gunning for a mid-end build it's probably best to leave the RGB RAM aside.
Linus say all rams same same same speed
Yes because more speed = more latency so ends up cancelling itself out the only benefit is a better benchmark score apparently
Speed should be judged by both CAS and MHz. Using the formula CAS/MHz = x, the lower the value the x the better.
So a CAS 10* RAM @ 2133MHz is faster than a CAS 12* @ 1600 MHz while you can have RAM with CAS 7* @ 1600MHz that will be faster than all the aforementioned. More speed != more latency*Just a random number for this example.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
CAS is 10% ram Mhz is 90% these numbers are not the SAME.. the Mhz is always more important
A good example is the xbox1 vs PS4
Xbox1 DDR3 2133Mhz 68GB/s bandwidth
PS4 GDDR5 5500Mhz 172GB/s bandwidthThe typical CAS latency of DDR3 is between 7 and 9
GDDR5 RAM meanwhile has a typical latency of about 15Something like Ryzen benefits much more from high speed memory than it does from tight timings/lower latency. With a Ryzen processor, 3200 MHz C16 is pretty much always going to beat out 2666 MHz C14 or tighter if you're gaming with a high performance GPU. This is because the interface that Ryzen uses to communicate between different clusters of cores is bound to the clockspeed of the memory. Higher speeds means faster data transfer, both in terms of cluster-to-cluster communication as well as out to the system memory itself.
not always and in the case of ryzen the ram speed seems to make more of a difference than tight timings, Im running my 1700 at 3.9ghz at 1.35v and my gskill 16gb x2 sticks at 3200mhz 16-15-15-15-34 instead of 2933 14-14-14-14 because I get better benches and a bit more stability too.
however on my 3930k running at 4.4ghz 1600mhz with tight timings was faster though i cant remember the exact timings because I oc'ed it years ago and my Asus RIVE just shit the bed recently
Hey kind of off topic but I don't suppose you could tell me what ram I can order for one of these HP Elitedesk 800 G2 Intel i5 6500. All I know is it says DDR4-2133 SDRAM , I have been trying to download the manual for the last few days to try to find out but it just times out.
I'll have it in my hands soon enough but was hoping to order ASAP.
You should be able to use any 1.2 volt DDR4 2133mhz memory.
An example.
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Crucial-8GB-DDR4-2133MHz-PC4-1700…I don't know how many slots free you would have in that system. It could be fully populated already, or it might have one slot free.
Edit: I can't download the manual either. The server that hosts the file must be down.
Thank you so much! 3 slots free, I checked with the seller.
RGB IS LIFE
No but seriously the only reason these are discounted is because they're not RGB
and thank god for that, my PC doesn't need to look like a clown threw up in it.
I'm sorry to hear that
You mean you wish you had lights so you can change the look of your dull boring pc
Corsaaaaaaair Gaming!
Wow, has gone up in price a bit. Paid $318.20 after the last 20% off sale in June from gaming-city eBay store for this same kit.
SDRAM Starting to become so expensive you could probably barter it for a house in Sydney.
Smartphone companies buying up all the RAM, apparently. That plus the GPU prices make it a pricey to build a PC just now…
Seems expensive
