JayGau You can't evaluate the performance gain with RAM speed by only looking at the average fps. 1% and 0.1% lows have to be taken into account. Pretty much every test I have seen in the last few years shows very little improvement on the average fps, but the 1% low can benefit much more from the RAM speed. That's relevant even at higher resolution, where the average fps is mostly limited by the GPU, but the 1% low fps is still affected by the CPU performance. And fluctuating 1% low is something you absolutely want to avoid (if the word "stuttering" means anything to you). Reply
thestryker AMD marketing isn't doing the company any favors lately. First they made a hilariously awful slide comparing PTL to their offerings and now this. As mentioned above lows are where DRAM differences tend to be most notable. They also don't mention the latency for either kit which makes the comparison even more useless. Most DDR5-4800 kits have rather high latency out of the box. Reply
Gururu The pain is in the ddr5 leap. Reply
