Does RAM speed matter for gaming?

[jm-april20]

Build:

cpu: i3 8100
mobo: h310m pro vd
memory: ddr4 [?]
storage: 120gb a400 ssd
1tb BarraCuda hdd
gpu: rx 580 4gb

I'm going to be gaming and I'm wondering if ram mhz affects performance so I can maybe save a few bucks

Since you will be using a discrete graphics card and an intel processor, the answer is that ram speed is mostly not that important.
