[SOLVED] Is Samsung C die any good?

[cfranko]

Hey everyone, Today I got my new ram the Adata XPG D60G 3200 MHz CL16 2x8 kit. Before I bought it I read reviews about it every single review had Hynix M die in it. But mine is Samsung C die. Why did I get Samsung C die and is it any good? Would it perform better than Hynix M Die? Im attaching my Thaipoon Burner. How well would it treat handle overclock?

What is the EXACT model of your memory kit?

With 16-20-20 XMP timings I'd tentatively say that it's somewhat unlikely that those will be worth even trying to overclock, but let's not confuse running your memory at the XMP profile speed with actually "overclocking", because they are not the same thing at all. Overclocking memory is an entirely different, highly intensive, incredibly involved process that requires MANY, MANY HOURS of testing for stability if you don't want to end up with catastrophic data and file system corruption.

C-die sticks seem to be a lot more budget oriented and probably aren't what you want in an overclocking module.

What are your full system specifications?

So, that memory kit should "work" fine at it's advertised settings.

Optimally, if you wanted to see the best memory and CPU performance you would want to run either 3200mhz CL14 sticks or 3600mhz CL16 sticks, which are both very close in terms of true latency and actual performance, but the difference probably isn't significant enough to warrant bothering with a return of the memory you received and likely paying more for a kit that meets either of those criteria, especially considering the region you are from where it is likely somewhat difficult to easily get good hardware to begin with.
