Does Ram Speed REALLY matter? You might be surprised

Today I decided to show you whether or not ram speed can matter when it comes to gaming computers... but I didn't expect this level of result

Hey guys. The number for SOTTR is missing in the first chart and should be “136” sorry about that.

[thsense]

thumbs up for having my exact motherboard, my exact processor, and testing exactly what i searched for.

[slade]

3:48 That could not have been timed better.

[morfigasoulslayer]

I did this and now my computer is so fast that its running around the house and i cant catch it

[brucietv]

The same tests @1440p would have been really nice to see to visualise the diminishing returns you spoke of :)

[peterfreund]

You should have said “now we are going to take a trip down memory lane.”

[Belladas]

I think it would have been good to show the 1% and 0.1% Lows. It seems like in a lot of benchmarks the faster ram speed can help bring up the FPS lows more than just a straight FPS increase.

Hey Jay and team, I've been building computers for a long time and enjoy watching your content. My go to tests for a long time has been Geekbench (CPU) and performance test by Passmark (muti test suite) for all the overclocking and ram tuning. maybe you can include that or just a subset of it. like the memory benchmark.

Phil's personality brings a smile to my face each time he goes into one of his editing humor :)

Same test with AMD.
Also, a test with different rated ram speeds and same speed ram with different timings.

[sacredsock]

I was all ready to start typing 'what about AMD, that is RAM speed critical', glad I watched to the end.
Please repeat the tests with Ryzen, and see which is more dependant on ram speed these days.

I watch alot of videos but for some reason I find your videos more reliable keep it up, I look for your videos when I have questions

10:51. "If you haven't already gone into your BIOS and said 'Oh, I should probably enable that XMP Profile", and you didn't even know it was there, then 'You're welcome'"

Me: Yup - thank you, Jay. Finally gathered up the courage to turn mine on - and saw an immediate improvement in many of high-computing tasks..

[SyBaR_]

Please test on a Ryzen 3000 too, maybe show 1% lows to see if they're affected.

[CyberCPU]

I think AMD would be a better test bed for this. AMD benefits a lot from memory speed. I may be wrong but I don't think Intel would show as much benefit.

[DanielBascom]

I really love your video for learning stuff. You are a great teacher

[mikeorion]

I've learned so much from this channel and Linus and TechSource. You have all helped me so much since 2 months ago I didn't even know what the components of a PC included. Now I have built 3 from scratch all tested thoroughly and functioning perfectly so thank you Jay!

Jay: "We're assuming people's computers are WORKING, Phil-"
Test bench: X(

[lampsalot]

3:53 @Phil, your laugh is the best! Makes me laugh every time you do.

Love the honesty of leaving the outtakes/mistakes in-line with the video
