I've been looking over some RAM to purchase, and I've gotten a bit uncertain after the latest info regarding dual rank RAM for the Ryzen 5xxx line CPU's.
Would a dual rank 3200mzh CL16 2x16 GB be in a better spot than 3600mhz C17 4x8 GB (two single channel sets)? This is the best CAS latencies I can find within my budget, unless I go lower for something like 3000mhz CL15 2x16 GB, but that particular kit is a corsair running at 1.35 V so I'd perhaps imagine that the 3000mhz would be the max. (havent really done any OC before on RAM)
I also recall seeing a benchmark video where it was said that 3600mhz CL16 is an ideal sweet spot. But I'm sort of curious where best function transforms into diminishing returns and bragging privileges. That being said the rig would be used for gaming and video/audio editing. Which is why I'm thinking about going 32GB rather than 16. My current 6 year old rig for the same purpose is using a single 8GB 1600mhz RAM, due to the fact that I forgot to upgrade it. So I'd imagine anything I pick would feel better on the new rig.
