GTX 1070Ti and 3200 or 2666 ram bus ?!

[mrvithan]

I am planning to buy a GTX 1070Ti with i8700 or i8700k. I just want to build a system that can run in the maximum capacity on all H/Ws. In this youtube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhhqtBlXPzY&t=4s), it quite shows that the GTX 1060 can drive only 2666 ram bus speed max. So my question is what ram bus does GTX 1070Ti can run in max ?!

I have see that with GTX1080ti can drive 3200 or even 3600. But i have not seen ant 1070Ti test and 1080Ti would be a little too much for me.

If 3200 ram bus is required, then i might go with Z370 board and i8700k o/c, or only 2666 then i would buy only H370 and save my $$$ for better AIO cooler.

As far as I know, ram speed doesn't matter when it comes to GPU performance (within its limits obviously very old slow ram will bottleneck a GPU) a 1070 ti should be just fine running with 2933 or 3000mhz memory, I would advise you to buy a 3000mhz or 3200mhz memory in the amount you need and run it as fast as you can, your memory may not be running at 100% load, but you don't want it to as it may hurt your memory performance in the future.

I think you didn't understand the video you watched as your RAM speed and what GPU you have have nothing to do with eachother.

The point of the video is that RAM speed with intel systems has a minimal affect on gaming performance. To use anything over DDR4 2400 you need a Z370 motherboard. Honestly for Intel anything over DDR4 3000 is a waste of money, unless you get it cheap. The performance difference in gaming is minimal. On AMD Ryzen it makes a big difference but not Intel.

Old slow ram will not bottleneck a GPU, your system ram has little to do with your GPU performance, The actual system which is old and slow will bottleneck a GPU.

Actually, i don't argue with u. i saw on another video on 8700k with 1080Ti and 3666 rambus and with these combination it can gains ~5 - 10% fps when compared to 2666 rambus. So my point of view is if i go alone with Z370, 3200 rambus, and 1070Ti and i can get like ~ +3 - +5% fps i would go for my joy. but if it like 0 - +1% fps when compared to 2666 rambus, i would go only with H370 board and 2666 rambus.

The GPU doesn't matter in this equation. The RAM speed directly affects the CPU.

As you can see there there is a VERY minimal difference in speed from 2400 and higher. This is a legit site, not some youtuber.

Your pointed article is loud and clear. You just save my buck. Thx and respect.

I agree, and disagree. While the ram speed doesn't directly effect the GPU, it still has an effect on it's performance. Let me explain, the CPU stores it's information in the memory, the faster the memory the faster the CPU can get to processing. So the CPU processes mouse clicks and keyboards presses which correspond to an action in the game. So if having faster memory allows the CPU to process things faster wouldn't that mean it would allow the CPU to process mouse clicks and such faster, and the CPU is what tells the GPU what to render when a mouse movement or keyboard click happens, so if the memory speed is faster it allows the CPU to process the information to send to the GPU faster.

So if the memory speed is faster, this allows the CPU to render a mouse click faster which the CPU can then tell the GPU to render that mouse click faster than if the memory had been slower. (Don't quote me on this )

Nice story but the proof is in the benchmarks. You are at the point of talking about less than nanoseconds, which is no perceptible difference to even the most sensitive person in the world.

Thanks, and I know we are talking about small differences in latency, but as tested above, 2666 mhz VS 3666 mhz shows. Also, to competitive CS Go players, they don't care if they can tell the difference, they want the lowest latency possible.
