I'm building a new PC and decided to get 48 gb ddr5 ram (24x2). I feel like that's the most balanced in terms of capacity and performance. The 24g sticks are single rank and can have better oc potential than dual rank 64/32x2 kits. So extra capacity with the benefits of a smaller stick. Plus, its easier to have 64gb+ total ram considering the amount of VRAM on GPUs these days (48 system plus 16+ VRAM). I also won't have to worry about performance issues due to having other applications open and be fairly future proofed. Can't wait to get my parts and build/tune it. Hey, PC Centric. For the next RAM video you mentioned, any chance you can do some comparisons between stock, XMP/Expo only, and XMP/Expo + tuned (tighter timings) gaming performance? Maybe that's a lot to ask, but it would be interesting to see the 1% low differences. P.S. - Looks like you guys left the zoo benchmark in your summary chart. It would have been nice to leave that one out as it was an outlier to get a more accurate picture. Cheers man.

@andydbedford 2 ай бұрын

If you want that kind of content just go and watch Buildzoid over at actually hardware overclocking. Basically if you’re building an AMD system, then tinkering with your ram is just a major major headache just enable Expo and leave it at that. Intel are a bit different but come with its own issues too.

what's always running in the background is the answer the more you have multi tasking the more you'll need for example Tech once said he ran video editing software whilst he gamed, so of course he says get 64Gb. I have 32Gb and at worst have Edge running a radio station broadcast, never fill up the RAM unless I add more and more tasks. VRAM might well be the must get 16 or more VRAM for ultra settings in the near future?

Yup. I have an i7-14700k, RTX 4080, 32GB DDR5, Samsung Pro 990 2TB SSD. As a KZfaqr, when I edit even a 30 minute video, Task Manager reports my RAM use is 13GB while PowerDirector 365 is processing that video (expected final video size 13GB, 4K 30fps). And CPU running at 20% and GPU at 40%. 32GB is more safer and future proof than 16, though it depends what programs you use.

@ALxdCr4ftPlays 2 ай бұрын

Not to mention it can have the video processing done in under 12 minutes. My old PC (i7-6700k, 16GB DDR4, GTX 1070, I got in 2016) would take 2 hours to process that kind of video editing.

Now, have a stream on your second monitor (or anime, movie, etc), multiple tabs open in your web browser (ouch if you are using Chrome as its ram use heavy), games downloading in the background from steam etc, while playing your game at 4K 60fps. Not to mention all the background windows OS tasks (prefetch, etc). Then come back and tell me you only need 16GB of RAM memory. 16 GB is fine if the only thing you plan on doing is game. But if you are mulittasking heavily, you will need more than 16GB to have a smooth gaming experience AND be able to multitask effectively on everything else PC.

@@mauricejohnson660 Very well, in benching it performs above expectations (Userbenchmark).. I used the same memory (except DDR5) for my nephews build and it is also great memory..

What is the tool in the top left of screen that is used to see cpu/gpu temp, frame rate etc. new to pc. Just finished my first build and getting my head around everything. Thanks. 👍

I am also wondering this. Just bought my first prebuilt and it is arriving tomorrow. So I want to see how people are using that tool to see their benchmarks lol.

What are the rest of your specs?

I got say, isn’t these tests unfair? Like, one of the things that RAM do (or the only thing it does) is being able to run more stuff on the computer. With other words, if you want to play 8 games at the same time (for some reason) buy more, if you only will use like a game and discord go for less.

Hogwarts likes 20+ gigs of ram. Plus, it seems to play better at 32 GIGS at 6000 MTs CL 30 over 64 GIGS at 5200 MTS CL 38 judging by the 2 Rigs I now own and previously owned. My old Mobo died and took out the ram, so I upgraded.

Do you still experience stutters when playing? I’m considering upgrading from DDR4 to DDR5 and wondering if that would fix or improve the stuttering

@Adam-fz6sj 2 ай бұрын

@@MonkeyMan125431 Small random stutters when something starts in the background or when windows does its check for updates, nothing big so I would go for 32 GIGs CL30 at 6000 MTs over CL38 but only if you can find the ram for a good price and it works with your motherboard.

32GB DDR5. Especially for games which are as demanding as Microsoft Flight Simulator and Cyber Punk if you want to play those in 4k ultra with ray tracing.

I dont build my pc for today, i bet if we looked back so many years 8gb was optimal. Give it next year or year after it will be 32gb.

Recommended for overall stability: 32GB's Minimum: 16GB Overkill: 64GB

@stawsky 2 ай бұрын

At this point 32Gb is absolutely minimum. I watching this video with only 1 tab open and nothing else and of course some apps working in a background and PC use nearly 10gb of ram add a game to it and it seriously can hurt your game performance. I do have 64Gb in my PC because is necessarily. As Big Fan of Skyrim I do have have quite big mod list (3500+) and there are locations (for example outside of Whiterun) where PC while playing taking over 50Gb of ram....

Nice. I went with 48 gbs to mod and play Skyrim again. Figured I'd need more if there's enough mods installed lol.

@stawsky 2 ай бұрын

@@lsik231l I think 48gb for heavy modded Skyrim is absolutely minimum. I just checked and all my mods take 565gb disc spaces…. Originally I wanted to go with 48gb because You can OC better then 64gb but is fine.I was able my from 6400Mhz 32-39-39-102 to 6800Mhz 30-30-40-40 and they are perfectly stable with Intel and Rtx.
