EVGA 3090
I9-9900k
Rm1000x PSU
32gb ddr4 ram (3200mhz xmp 1)
I recently overclocked my ram and ran memtest to ensure stability. Four passes and no errors. I looked into overclocking my i9 but haven’t done so yet because I’m a tad confused by the process (I’ll get to it eventually)
but my question is whether or not my ram will work sufficiently without overclocking my i9-9900k… The weird part is that intel states their cpu supports up to 2666 MHz yet I’ve heard from others that your ram can still reach higher speeds with this cpu. Can anyone enlighten me on this. Do I need to overclock my cpu to enjoy my ram oc? Should I put ram oc back to default until I upgrade my cpu?
