Do I need more RAM or faster RAM? - DIY in 5 Ep 150

You need more RAM! But if you’re going to upgrade, should you also get faster RAM to really give your system a boost? We’ll be discussing the difference between RAM capacity and RAM speeds and learn what you need for your build to get the maximum performance.
Learn more about memory requirements for your PC: www.kingston.com/en/memory/de...
What is RAM? What does it do?
Think of RAM as short-term memory for your CPU. Anything that it needs to access quickly and frequently can be stored here to speed up a multitude of processes. When you don’t have enough RAM, your computer will begin to pull things on and off your hard drive which can make these tasks take a lot longer and make the computer feel sluggish. As applications and games evolve, they may require more memory to run smoothly so over time, a RAM upgrade might be exactly what you need.
RAM Capacity
When looking at buying new RAM, there are a few things to keep in mind. First, the capacity of the RAM, typically measured nowadays between 8-64GB (gigabytes), shows you how much data the RAM is can hold at any given time. Most people think upgrading RAM simply means getting more capacity, and while this is certainly helpful if you do not have enough, at a certain point a speed upgrade might be the better play. You can check out how much of your RAM you are currently using by opening up your Task Manager and selecting the Performance tab. If your Memory utilization is high, you may think about upgrading RAM capacity.
RAM Speed
RAM speed gets a bit more complicated. Modern PCs use RAM based on Double Data Rate Synchronous Dynamic RAM technology with a number after the acronym that shows its generation. For example, DDR4 for the fourth and current generation. After that, there is a number that designates the speed it can perform at, measured in Megahertz, millions of cycles or Mega Transfers, per second. This is our RAM speed and it affects the maximum bandwidth; aka how much data can travel to and from the memory module at a time or per clock cycle. Then there’s also RAM Latency, which indicates how long it takes the for the RAM to respond to a request, measured in a series of 4 numbers. Here, the lower number, the faster the speed. Taking both speed and latency into account is important when trying to determine overall RAM performance.
This makes a difference when it comes to industry standard memory and overclocking. Overlocking is using memory modules capable of operating at faster speeds, using lower timings, and sometimes at higher voltages than industry standard. But we’ll dive more into overclocking in a future DIY episode.
More or Faster?
So, what does this mean for your computer and your specific situation? When it comes to capacity, if you plan on playing more hardware intensive games or multitasking, you’ll want RAM capacity greater than 16GB. If you also want to play those games at higher resolution and framerates, you should also overclock the RAM to get the smoothing gaming experience, especially if you are planning to stream the game off the same PC that you’re are playing it on or create other content around your gameplay.
Should you upgrade or replace what you already have?
If you have more RAM slots on your motherboard than you are currently using, you may be wondering if you can simply add more RAM to what you already have. The short answer is, yes, but not if you want to go faster. Mixing memory of different speeds and timings will always default them to the slower of the two. Sometimes these inconsistencies can even cause stability issues. So, you can but it may be more of a hassle than it’s worth if the newly added RAM is a drastically different speed than the older RAM you already had. So again, you can do it, but most people just buy new to avoid the potential hassle. Now, if you are buying new, be sure to check which type of RAM your motherboard can supports.
Is there a RAM upgrade in your future? A specific type that you’re eyeing? And all importantly, to RGB or not to RGB? I kid, but seriously if you have any questions not answered in this video, please leave ‘em in the comments and the team at Kingston will do our best to help out. Take care everyone and see you next time with more DIY in 5!

    With my setup, Rog Maximus Extreme MB and Corsair Dominator DD5 ram I can run 32GB (16GB x2) at 6200MHZ or 64GB (16Gb x4) at 5400MHZ and they perform the same in benchmarks and in games at 4K. It might be different at lower resolutions but not 4k atleast for me. I ended up keeping mine setup at 64GB as DCS has some servers and maps that have went over 32GB of ram usage. The ram was two sets of Corsair 32GB 6200mhz kits I tried together and not as stock 64GB matched kit set so it was not ideal but works fine with manual setup. So things may be different with DDR5 as for now but the advice is spot on when it came to my older DDR4 rigs.

    Really 32gigs of ddr4 3200 to 3600 is pretty much all you need even for 4k video editing. If you were working with large database files 64 or 128 would be to your benefit but that is a very small fraction of a percent of industry users. You do need to know how to set your RAM speedt in BIOS too, as for a given CPU the BIOS defaults will be 2166 or 2666 typically independent of the speed stated on the kit. Given that none of the advancements from 22nm to 7nm for AMD allowed for stable repeatable faster speeds than the 3200 or 3600 kits, and going to pre-10nm 14+ 10nm circuitry for Intel only just this year got them to 3200 native speed realistically the technology is at a stall. Yes if you were doing advanced animations, AI or other data intensive work you may need more RAM but you'd really be better off using a render server at that point and then you are using a CPU type that is slower than desktop and uses slower memory so again no benefits there. Sure the up and coming DDR5 may save you a watt or two, then you get your hands on an RTX 30xx card and you wont notice that power savings and there are no CPU's out now, and not likely to be any CPU's out any time soon, that will be able to do more speed than what is already done. Not unless, of course, AMD's next gen Ryzen pulls a rabbit out of the hat, wouldn't put it past Lisa to do so :)

    Ensuring your mobo is running ram in dual channel or better is a huge improvement.. I had 16g running in dual channel, added another single stick of matching 8g ram totalling 24g.. mobo switched to single channel mode and everything felt more sluggish than 16g in dual.. not sure if something like this is already in the comments but hope it helps..

    that exact issue is why I added another 16GB in same timing ram from a second kit. still retained dual channel and got extra capacity. I also did this with an older system, but it was a second 8GB kit to total 16GB. both systems retained dual channel as a result of this. so all 4 slots are populated on both boards with basically the same timings across all the ram. sometimes you can mix brands if the timings are close enough as well, I just personally don't do it if I can avoid it since all my ram instabilities came from mixing ram.

    This actually answered almost every question I’ve been having. I built a new PC two years ago with an ASUS ROG Maximus Hero XII. The sticker says it’s rated for RAM up to 4800+ I currently have some 3200 sticks and am wondering if I screwed up not getting 3600 or higher. When I look at a lot of 3600 ram, it says it’s for AMD. Also, when multiply the clock rates by the latency numbers, 3200 appears identical to 3600 on some vendors. Super confusing. I’m tempted to just swap for 3600 and benchmark both.

    LTT had a great shotgun analogy where 1Rx8 would be a single barreled shotgun with 8 pellets in each bullet. The RAM ‘shoots’ this at the CPU, where it is used, and then the RAM has to reload. Expanding on that, 2Rx8 would be like a double barreled shotgun with 8 pellets. This ‘double barrel’ lets the RAM shoot more bullets before reloading. The difference would be of latency, but this is off the top of my head so don’t take my word for it.

    I like the analogy of the info highway with each Channel having lanes depending on the type of ram since every cycle on the clock there is a performance grade that doubled ddr-2 to 3, doubles, ddr3 to 4 it doubles again. 1,2,4, with each new generation we double the ability to transport data to and from the ram.

    Hello, Keep in mind that DDR2 and DDR3 memory cannot be installed on the same given motherboard, they are different physically and therefore will only install on their appropriate motherboard of the same technology. With that being said, DDR3 will be the better performing memory module regardless as it is the next following generation to DDR2.

    No matter how fast the ram you purchased it will go down to 2400mhz if you get 4 slots populated on a non “k” processor, so latency and size are more important if you just want 128gb ram size and performance at the same time but don’t want to spend extra bucks on “k” processor. My ram speed is 2400 and cycle latency is 9-11-11-25 and processor is 11400f

    But most people will not care about this. You would need to be doing intensive tasks to be needing this info. My customers are given the whole truth about RAM. I just bought 3600mhz speed DDR4 ram but I use the speed intensively processing videos at 4-5K very regularly. The Speed of the RAM is felt more during multitasking but how much is it really noticeable unless we are constantly using a stopwatch? If we need to constantly have background applications running, we are using applications like Adobe Premiere or any production apps, then this video would be the very best. I acknowledge that her explanations are very easy so far to understand. I would like it if someone would run two PCs with the same configuration side-by-side and run an app that allocates RAM like Adobe CC or 1-2 VMs and then show the differences in performance. It might be necessary to take ram that is even slower and cheaper because the contrast is easier to recognize. Too many will buy RAM and say to themselves that they can put less money toward the RAM as it is less important than let’s say, a larger SSD. After studying Core 1&2 A+, I now say, if I want to see better production results, then get great quality RAM and Kingston is pretty decent as a brand. It is easier to upgrade RAM later vs spending hours on upgrading SSD or NVMe later down the Road.

It’s supposed to exist but you can’t buy it. Kind of like gen4 optane. It’s supposed to exist, it’s supposed to be the best fastest storage around, but it simply doesn’t exist anywhere for sale. I bet it’s all bought up by massive conglomerates like Facebook and KZread. Technically they are the only people on earth that could actually use it and get any use from it.
