    Conclusion : If you have lots of money that you want to spend for a very small performance boost go for it. But If you are a clever person and dont fall in marketing tactics then settle with your current ddr4 ram.

    Recently upgraded my 8700k -> 13700k, 16gb ddr4 3200mhz -> 32gb ddr5 6400mhz and 3080 -> 4090. Not gonna think about upgrading for a long while now.

    By the time your video came out, the highest frequency (not speed) already was 8000 mhz without it being overclocked. 8400 mhz is technically the theoretical limit, but so is 3200 mhz for ddr4. The reason we see higher frequencies is because of the effective speed which gets doubled (DDR = *Double* Data Rate). This also explains verified overclocks of over 11000 mhz. The speed of ram depends as much on Cache Latency as it does on the frequency. One other important fact about DDR5 is, that unlike DDR4, it has double the burst length, which in short allows it to read double the data at once.

    • @shinama
      @shinama Рік тому +2

      Oh and DDR4 has, so far, way lower latencies which still makes it a valid consideration.

    I have i9 13900k/RTX4080/128GB DDR4 3600 @ CL18 and i9 13900ks/RTX4090/128GB DDR4 3600 @ CL18 - both running gear 1 (my 128GB RAM 4000 sticks didn't play well at gear 1). Comparing my benchmarks to videos on here and I hold or exceed their numbers so have zero motivation to move to DDR5.

    Great video. Also, I have ryzen 5 3400g and rtx 4060 and the cpu is probably bottlenecking the gpu. I wanna buy ryzen 7 5700x, is it good combo?

    • @tech-techover
      @tech-techover  Рік тому

      In my opinion both combinations are great. But you will definitely need the extra power from the 3070 irregardless of whether you pair it with DDR5 or DDR4

    • @sartajkhan6175
      @sartajkhan6175 Рік тому +1

      What a joke!😂 How can you ask such question? You are comparing 3060 with 3070?😂 Dont do that plz 3070 is the powerhouse for gaming and 3060 is just a 1080p card that cant even give you 60fps constant on ultra settings for some heavy weight games. That doesnt matter whether you have ddr4,ddr5 ram or a different cpu. For example An i5 12400f+3070+ddr4 ram can easily beat i7 12700f+3060+ddr5 ram system in gaming with a very big difference. So when its gaming dont even think about ram ddr4/ddr5, cpu blah blah blah only think about graphic card.

    honestly its just a waste of time and money. sure it will be faster but to upgrade to DDR5 i would need to upgrade my mobo and find one compatible with my current processor. im sure im gonna have to replace the motherboard at some point but for now its still running strong and i dont see why i would switch from 3k+ MHZ 32gb -> 4k+ MHZ 16-32gb.
