Hey

I can buy 2X32GB Ram sticks and it costs 100$ more than Quality 2X16GB of RAM.
What is better you think?

32GB RAM - 3600 C16
64GB RAM - 3200 C16

5900X with X570 Taichi.
I can pay 100$ more for doubled the density of the ram.
For future proofing and maybe video editing in the future.

Thanks.

It should work fine. Are you looking for a 2 stick set or are you going to go with 4 sticks?

I guess in the end it depends on your use case scenario and if faster ram would help or not. Somewhere around 3600MHz C16 would be what I'd look for most likely.

2sticks I think.. and it is daisy chain so better install 2 sticks.
but I see some videos that other timings improve the fps a lot..

You will want higher speeds and lower cas latency as a starting point. If you are doing 3200, then CL14 or 3600/CL16.

I updated the thread.
Thanks.
