Thread 106231546

Why haven't you upgraded to DDR5 yet?

i'm still on ddr3

>>106231546 (OP)
use case?

>>106231557
5ms less latency when watching VR shota

>>106231546 (OP)
i dont think my 2015 mobo supports also ive grown up quote a while ago so i dont care as long as the computer works

I am still comfy with DDR4, I guess. As long as the motherboard is fine I will gonna keep using it.

>>106231546 (OP)
are those cringe metal covers necessary for cooling or something?

>>106231599
They are to house the RGB lights that zoom zooms like so much

>>106231546 (OP)
ECC speeds are barely faster than what I have with 128GB of 3200MT/s DDR4, it only now has doubled to 6400MT/s. I'm just waiting to see if CAMM2 and DDR6 improves the situations but shit kinda sucks right now in terms of options, I may wait out the entirety of AM5.

>>106231546 (OP)
No reason to upgrade. I'm still on a i7-6700T

>>106231546 (OP)
DDR6 is coming in 2 years. my 128GB 3600mt/s kit was $200

>>106231546 (OP)
(((They))) won't let me.

>>106231546 (OP)
my i9-10900k only supports ddr4 so

may as well just buy 4 sticks

You're like a little baby, watch this.

my motherboard doesn't support it

can this 'DDR5' come over to my house and suck on my nuts?

I did

>>106231638
>DDR6 is coming in 2 years
So is AM6, so I guess another reason for them to change.

Thanks, genius.
>>106231733
I cannot do this.
>ECC
;_; I am weakling man, with tiny RAM hands.

Here is what I can work with:
4x DDR5, Maximum Memory Capacity 256GB
Memory Support 7000+(OC)/ 6800(OC)/ 6600(OC)/ 6400(OC)/ 6200(OC)/ 6000(OC)/ 5800(OC)/ 5600(JEDEC)/ 5400(JEDEC)/ 5200(JEDEC)/ 5000(JEDEC)/ 4800(JEDEC) MHz
Max. overclocking frequency:
• 1DPC 1R Max speed up to 7000+ MHz
• 1DPC 2R Max speed up to 6400+ MHz
• 2DPC 1R Max speed up to 6000+ MHz
• 2DPC 2R Max speed up to 5600+ MHz

Supports Intel® XMP 3.0 OC
Supports Dual-Controller Dual-Channel mode
Supports non-ECC, un-buffered memory

>>106231546 (OP)
sure bro let me wait 3 minutes for a boot like it's 2007

>>106231809
Intel really needs to match AMD here with providing unofficial support on Linux for their desktop platform. It's a pretty bad time all around when they still have low hanging fruit like this they aren't willing to give up and they can't compete.

DDR5 just hasn't been as meaningful an upgrade over DDR4, as DDR4 over DDR3. I'll wait for DDR6.

>>106231546 (OP)
I'll stick with my 5700x and just wait for am6. Not being able to pop in another 2 sticks of ram is completely unacceptable. So is memory speed limitations from the memory controllers on top of that. Ddr5 is an abortion. The next gen will have memory controllers in the ram.

>>106231830
Intel is done for

I upgraded to SSD to shrink the booting times. I'm not going to regress back to before with ram training

>>106231793
I think I'll just wait haha

my 12400f and 3200 ddr4 is doing just fine and if I have to wait until 27/28 for am6/ddr6 then so be it

>>106232353
The odds your 12400f and 3200 ddr4 will be doing just fine in 27/28 are pretty good.

>got one of the last intel cpus that wasn't stuffed with cuck cores and rust
pheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew

>>106231546 (OP)
I have the upper end of AM4 on my system and use an X3D CPU, so RAM speeds don’t really matter. Also, I have yet to fully saturate my 64GB of RAM.

I still don't know what faster RAM does.
Linus did a DDR3 ram test a long time ago and the result is using single channel ram doesn't even affect FPS all that much, let alone higher frequency dual channel ram

>>106232856
good for you man. still have my 10100 sitting in my storage box. good times.
