Hey guys, dose 4x8gb ram 3200MHz CL14 really boost Ryzen 5 5600x by 2-10%, just by having all 4 ram sticks in on a x570 motherboard?

Thx
 
4 sticks of RAM are rarely ever better (speed-wise or bandwidth) than 2, as typically 4 sticks run lower clocks /relaxed timings for stability...

Threadrippers are quad channel, not to be confused with 4 sticks of RAM inserted but running dual channel....; normal 1000-5000 series desktop Ryzens are not.

Actually, 4 sticks of RAM almost always gives a performance boost of at least a couple percent. It's marginal, but it's there.
