Only months ago, you could get 16GB of 3200mhz top-tier brand RAM for $69
LOL, you poor young people. I remember buying 16 MEGS (not gigs) for my Amiga 500 back in the day and it cost $800 just for the RAM, and another $350 for the board to plug it into. You folks today have no idea how good you've really got it. And that was when the Minimum wage was $2.85 an hour, not when it was $7.25 an hour. And that's not accounting for inflation. In today's dollars, that 16 megs would've cost around $1,500. Enjoy your "fucking expensive" RAM! ;)
Anyone else not know wtf was goin on in the graphs
Noob Prophet I are also stupid
stoopid*
They flashed by too fast, and honestly didn't make too much sense :/
pause the video idiots
Basically what the graphs show is that overclocking your memory can improve FPS to a significant level for gaming (on one graph it was a jump from 23 average FPS from 2133 speed to 3600 on an i7-7700k), but it can hurt performance in other areas such encoding whether it be unzipping a file, or computing a hash for an encryption algorithm. However, as Linus said, if you're not willing to suffer the pain of figuring out the right frequency to overclock at it's not worth it.
That guy got scammed, Linus only gave him one stick.😂

Can you make a video on keyboard over-clocking?
Adam Danilowicz i overclocked a keyboard once and noticed a huge difference in fps games, my player was running faster and smoother
Once I overcloced my keyboard too much, so when I pressed W for 10 seconds my cpu could not handle it and exploded.
Adam Danilowicz i pressed S and my W key exploded
Adam Danilowicz after OC my car was way faster in Dirt, really worth it
Thats what I did. The difference is quite overwhelming. I went from 1kmhz to 2kmhz. Now it recognizes the key way before i even press it. Pretty impressive boost IMO.
The CPU eats 1's and 0's and poops out games, etc. Interesting way to look at it.....
nah, the cpu does poop out 1's and 0's.. sorry..
your monitor then does poop-out analog information, a visible picture, when it has eaten also these 0's and 1's
Sooo much poop!!
i like my poop atleast at 60fps
Kiran the the anus can't feel more than 24 fps

@@xXJeReMiAhXx99 you must have a potatoe as a computer if you think like that! One thing I have learned building PC's since the 90s, is that upgradability, modularity and construction are the most important.

Thanks for the info, even it's been an old video, it was helpful info!!!
I tried to explain to an old friend that faster ram doesn't really make a difference but he didn't believe me. This is the same guy who's buying two 1080ti for his 1920*1080 60hz display though...
James well, if he going to use SSAA in games or will try maining then that's okay, otherwise he idiot.
Alex Morgan well that's right, but anyway you should agree that running 2x1080Ti on 1080p it's nonsense, okay if there was 144 or even 240Hz but on 60Hz? Really?!
Andyys he should just educate him on monitor refresh rates, the guy surely has money for that as well.
neocodex3 well if it's an good monitor, then you can overclock it from 60hz to 95-120 pretty easy)

Remember when RAM was the cheapest component? Ah, those were the days.
*Cries in 1600mhz*
RAM can now cost more than a Z390 quality board (looking at the MSI Tomahawk) and even 80+ Platinum PSU, but at least the CPU and GPU will still cost you more =D
**cries in 800MHz**
Yep, that's the speed of my RAM.
You can get 16gb ddr4 2600 or faster for like 70 bucks. A z390 is minimum like $110
I remember when ram was purchased in MBs and it was THE most expensive upgrade. In fact it was mostly the only other than HD. Like being excited to go to a 100mb hd.... So yeah....I remember when it dropped way in price too. I maxed my build to 16 Mb. 33mghz if I remember. I'm old. :(
I guess I'm saying the circle is complete. And it's sad. Be happy though. It'll come back around. You might be old by then. Lol
I paid like $220 for my DDR4 3000Mhz and about a month later they dropped to like $140. their currently around $95 ~ $120 now for 2x8GB

Speed matters, but it is dependant on CAS latency.
3200mhz DDR4 CAS-14 is pretty much the best thing commercially available right now.
As speed increases, typically CAS latency increases as well, so much so that something like 4266mhz DDR4 CAS-19 is actually SLOWER than 3200 CAS-14 memory.
You can do the math: [L/(0.5*S)]*1000=E
L= Latency (CAS),
S= Speed (in Mhz),
E= Effective Rating (lower E value = better)
So for 3200mhz CAS-14 ram the equation would be:
[14/(0.5*3200)]*1000=8.750
For 4266mhz CAS-19 it's:
[19/(0.5*4266)*1000=8.907
If you could get 4266mhz ram with a CAS latency of 18 THEN it would be slightly faster than 3200mhz CAS-14 RAM... unfortunately it doesn't exist (or is not actually available for purchase).
It's freaking crazy that 95% of people subbed to linustechtips dont see that comment. This explanation is 100x better than any video, and you are correct, it's seems the people is not friendly IT related knowledge or real interest.

I love the scene with Linus breaking the keyboard XD
A few tips for over clocking,.. 1) minimize the number of slots per channel. If your system has two slots per channel, populate only one, using the furthermost slot 2) use the smallest memory stick you can. Being unbuffered, the more memory on a stick, the higher the loading and less chance of tolerating higher speeds.
This is a great tip.
In summary, the amount of RAM depends on your computer build which is based on the job (gaming, video editing, general office work) that your computer will serve.
"closelier"

HeilEvalionMeinFührer eBay.com you download it by clicking the purchase button.
I've always wanted to see a latency vs mhz comparison. In the end,high performance RAM is little more than increased ability to handle data throughput with greater efficiency and lower temps. What happens when you keep 4k ram at 2666, and start dropping latency clocks? After all, if you want a TRUE speed boost, latency is where it's at, not sheer throughput.
Linus, glad you did not hurt yourself killing the keyboard.
Linus the ram performance differentiates based on more aspects like the cas latency, look up ram cas latency chart for more information thats why certain higher sped ram has lower performance then a lower sped ram based on Cas Latency.

WROOONG, go check some tests with a older CPU, i5 2500K for example and a modern GPU, RAM speed can make a 20FPS difference there. If you upgrade your GPU regularly but not your CPU you will totally profit from spending a bit more on fast RAM.

I updated my previous pc's motherboard driver, which included speeding up the RAM speed from 32GB@1333MHz to 32GB@1600MHz. Yes, a long time ago on a motherboard far, far away...
There was a marked improvement in the Star Swarm Stress Test, from only that driver update. I think RAM speed does make a difference in operation. Up to a point it improves, as shown in the video.
Till 2666 you will see improvement but later it is very less improvement.
Better to go for moderate ram speed & increase no of ram will boost performance more than what you get in actual.

Not really. As long as your RAM's maximum speed (Combined) can at least match or overcome your CPU speed, then the RAM speed won't make any difference.

I didn't believe it either.. but it does help, a lot. Especially if your CPU is the bottleneck.

Should definitely go over this again, since memory has changed a bit since
The destruction of the keyboard sequence look really, really satisfying!
If what you're working on can't fit completely in the L3 cache, and capacity misses can't be solved by prefetch, then memory access time is your primary bottleneck.
Yall talkin about expensive ram while I'm remember paying $250 for 2GB of DDR2 Kingston in 2004

thanks linus!
They should revisit this in 2019/2020. As newer ddr4 ram supports similar frequencies with tighter timings. Better support with newer platforms too, on intel and especially amd.
Short answer: barely any difference, so no.
Thanks, I really didn't want to watch a 9 minute video when it instead could be summed up so succinctly.
It's not a correct summary though. There are pretty considerable performance boosts when going from 2133 to 2666 or 3200 MHz, particularly on AMD CPUs.
Look at the benchmarks. Games like Rise of the Tom Raider has a FPS increase of 12 when going from 2133 to 3200 MHz on AMD and and increase of 22 on Intel. That's a meaningful difference. To say RAM speed doesn't matter is disingenuous, it's not as simple as that. Hence, watch the video.
I tried OCing my 1600Mhz RAM to 2400 (which it's supposed to do) and all hell broke loose. Finally had to clear CMOS.
I ain't touching that again!
I know.. I'm weak. ༼ つ ಥ_ಥ ༽つ
HairlessHare look for bios updates or maybe your motherboard cant handle it
BIOS update seems like a solid option atm. How old is the mobo?
I got mine too: HyperX Savage DDR3 2400Mhz OC. Sometimes it crashes my PC, sometimes it crashes the games but still... Now that's some boot speed, navigation velocity and game load improvement!

This video hits the spot so hard. Well done.
Hi, does the supported speed indicated at 2:12 mean minimum speed supported and i can still use anything higher? I was thinking of upgrading from 1 stick to running 4 sticks rated at 2666Mhz each and wondering if it would cause the rams to run at 2133 each instead of 2666. Thanks in advance
Requesting a remake for current gens & ddr4 too!!
