[SOLVED] Confusing Question

[zrs0505]

Whats up guys,

So I have been playing a game called Escape From Tarkov a lot recently and the game has a problem with ram leaks. The thing is I have 16 Gb (4x4x4x4) of DDR4 2400 MHz rams. 2 of the sticks are from one brand and the other two are from another brand (bad I know)
I just ordered a new kit of 16GB (8x2) of DDR4 3200 MHz ram. The question is,
Should I take out all of the sticks and install the new ram I received or should I Install the new ram but put in the 2 of the 4gb of the DDR4 2400MHz and downclock the 16GB to 2400mhz.


So Option 1: Remove the previous ram and install a new kit so I have 16GB of DDR4 3200MHz ram or
Option 2: Install new ram kit as well as keep the 4x2 GB 2400mhz ram and downclock the new ram to 2400mhz.

Specs: Ryzen 5 2600x RTX 2070
With Tarkov, My usage normally goes up to 98% usage but I installed a program that auto clears cache ever 5 minutes and brings it below 80%.

2600x is sensitive to RAM speed. Use the 3200mhz only if you do not want to loose performance. 16gb is plenty for most games and background ops. If you have high RAM load, you need to monitor your usage and identify the issue.

Use only new ram and run them at 3200mhz. Ryzen cpu's dont like slow ram. The faster, the better
