Hello and good evening everyone,

So I have been recently upgrading my system, and am at the stage now where I am looking at upgrading the ram. I have currently got Corsair Vengeance 2133 16GB installed. However, I am looking at getting 3000 G skill RGB ram.

I just want to ask will I notice a difference at all, in terms of gaming and also just general pc performance will there be a increase?

Thank you

Generally speaking on Intel systems you won’t notice any real world differences. So with your setup I would say no, just OC what you have. AMD systems is a different matter because the infinity fabric relies heavily on the memory speed / latency for its version of a ring bus. Running tight timings on 32/3400 brings some big gains, up to 17%
