Advice on Buying 32gb DDR4 Memory

[Mensy]

Hi Guys.

I currently have Corsair 2x8gb 3600 18 22 22 42

With a X570 MSI Tomahawk, 5800x3d and a 3080.

My question's are

Should i buy another pair of corsair 3600 2x8gb or should i just buy 2x16gb ?

If so what 2x16gb would be a good buy ?

Lastly would I even benefit from doubling my Ram ?

Cheers

4x8Gb vs. 2x16Gb is usually much of a muchness in terms of performance, slightly favouring 4x8 but it's usually easier to get 2x16Gb stable at higher speeds. If you can get matching memory then that's probably the best option, imo, especially if you're not overclocking.



If you've got a second monitor, run Task Manager on it while doing whatever you're doing and see how high your memory use is. If you're consistently close to full memory then you'll see a big benefit, if it occasionally spikes near full you'll see a small benefit, and if it stays comfortable you won't see any benefit.

Do you think i can just add another set of my corsair 3600 ? And be good ?

I dont think im having high memory usage but its getting pretty close in games now and just considering adding another set

Thanks for the input guys, what Ram would you recommend ? Or should i just get another 2 x 8gb of what I have now ?
