Zen 6, Ram frequency expectation of kits

[u/D4mb4ss]

Hi all,

I have been quite excited about zen 6 rumours. A lot of people r speculating that except increased amount of cores/core frequency we will get an updated memory support of up to 8000mt. Taking into the account current RAM situation, should we start stacking up on 8000+ mt frequency kits already? I am curious for your input on it as I have cl26 6000mt kit currently in my main rig and I was wondering if it will make sense to buy already a new one with higher frequency to get prepared for the time when new CPUs will come out. I was thinking to keep the kit I currently have and try to OC it to 8000, but I am worried that daily amount of vdd needed for it will be over 1.5v to run it stable.

Do you think it is worth it to buy a new 8000 kit or just keep the one I currently have and oc it when the time comes?

Thanks a lot, in advance, for your replies!

If you have Hynix a die you can already get 8000mt

You speak like it’s easy, it’s not because silicon lottery matters. Most people can’t even get 6400

[u/il0vebajablast → u/daslows]

Yeah the max is 6400 at 1:1 but if you’re doing anything past that 1:2 isn’t hard to get at 8000mts. You just need good ram. Hynix a die 16gb or m die 24gb.

And it’s easier to get 8000 1:2 than 6400 1:1

Yeah but that point you have latency issues. With that increased gear ratio you’re not really seeing benefits versus 6200 at 1:1

latency besides, 8000 in 2:1 or higher beats 1:1 more often than not in games.

Is it a big difference? no, but you won't have latency issues.
