Question Is my memory bottlenecking my pc?

[fantik322]

I've the spec detailed below:

i7 8700k 4.9ghz
RTX 2060 Asus Dual OC
Hyperx 2 x 8gb DDR4 2400mhz
Mobo: Aorus z370 Gaming 3
Nvme2 Samsung 960 250gb
SSD Samsung 860 500gb

I'd like to know if changing ram to 3200mhz would have a high impact in gpu performance.

I think it will have very little impact.
I'm just going by my experiences with upping RAM speed.
Plus....I don't think RAM typically causes much of a bottleneck provided you have enough...and I think you have enough (for gaming at least).

If you already have the RAM, no need to change it. Sure faster RAM is better, but its not worth spending the money on an entirely new kit.
If you hadnt already bought it, I would spring for some 3000MHz+, but since intel does not have the same RAM dependency that Ryzen does, its fine to leave.

I do have 2 sticks of 8gb , but i upped the memory to 2600 for example, and in a game i had a boost of 10 - 15 fps avg . That's what made me think if going for the 3k range would boost it more .

Thats honestly way more of an FPS jump than I would normally expect, but I doubt it would scale in a linear fashion. More than likely that move gained most of the FPS to be had.
