[SOLVED] G.Skill TridentZ or Corsair Vengeance ?

[katulen]

Hi,

I am looking to upgrade to 32GB in my system, with also a higher speed.

I have mainly been looking at:
G.Skill TridentZ RGB 3200 MHz
CL14 (14-14-14-34)

Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO 3200 MHz
CL14 (14-14-14-34)

Those 2 solutions should be B-Die right?

Corsair is general 25% more expensive than G.Skill. I don't mind paying that, if it turns out Corsair is the better solution.

• I have been told, I should go with 3200 MHz and CL14 and then overclock myself to 3600 MHz, instead of buying 3600 MHz directly. What do you think of that?
• Another thing, I would prefer to have 4x8GB for the looks, but I think I have read, that 4x8 might be slower than 2x16 - Thoughts?

Also, if you have any other suggestions to what I should go for, please don't hesitate to let me know.

Thanks.

I have the Corsair Veneganve RGB Pro and I like them! If its in your budget pick it up, but up to you.

2x16GB vs. 4x8GB
I think its whether you want the ability to upgrade in the future vs aesthetics tbh.

Okay, so either 2x16 or 4x8 will result in same performance yes?

Do you have 4 or 2 sticks?

I have 4x8GB. They will preform both in dual channel. This seems to be a debatable topic for some people.

The thing about going 4x8 or 2x16 is that it is likely both are going to be 2 rank per channel, and therefore perform the same.

You wont see a difference... Just depends if you want future upgrade ability to 64GB.

Okay. Ive heard that it also depends on your mobo, wether its daisy chain or t-topology.
4x8 if you're T-Topology and 2x16 if you're daisy chain.

But cant seem to find any info on what my asus z390-f is.
