** Please note, my knowledge with memory is very limited, hope I can back simplified answers!
Hi all, I'm getting a new build soon and I'm going with i9 13900KS on it with RTX 4090 on ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z790 HERO DDR5.
I know, many won't advice with overclocking the 13900KS but what if I want to be an overclocking freak and do it ?? I'd aim to try to overclock the CPU ONLY, not overclocking RAM at all beyond enabling XMP.
My question here is what RAM capacity / frequency should I be using the the 13900KS? My motherboard is advertised to support up to 7800mhz.
32GB sticks of DOMINATOR® PLATINUM RGB 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5 DRAM 7200MHz C34
OR
64GB sticks of DOMINATOR® PLATINUM RGB 64GB (2x32GB) DDR5 DRAM 6000MHz C40

- Does 64GB result in better CPU clocking over 32GB ?
- Why are people advising me to use only 2 sticks of RAM? So, if I wanted to use 4X16GB 7200MHz C34 module listed above for 64GB, what's the downside to that?
