What does ddr4-3000+ mean

[Triflexer]

Is my motherboard says ddr4-3000+, does that simply mean I can use ddr4-3000, 3200, 3300, etc.?

 

[Saberus]

Yes

It would be a little easier to post the actual motherboard.

But to describe RAM. DDR4 is the type. There is DDR, DDR2, DDR3 and DDR4, DDR4 being the latest revision. The 3000+ is the speed that the motherboard natively supports where that's a default speed or an overclocked speed.

DDR4 3000+ means that the motherboard is able to support up to around 3600 MHz of ram speed ( at the moment) and that means that you could also over clock your memory speed even higher if you want.

the motherboard is a ASRock X99 Extreme6 ATX: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157541&AID=10657534&PID=3938566&SID=&nm_mc=AFC-C8JunctionCA&cm_mmc=AFC-C8JunctionCA-_-na-_-na-_-na&utm_medium=affiliates&utm_source=afc-%zn

Right.
DDR4 3000+(OC) / 2933+(OC) / 2800(OC) / 2400(OC) / 2133 / 1866 / 1600 / 1333 / 1066

So your motherboard supports default RAM speeds of up to 2133. However, you can purchase faster RAM speeds and overclock them to the higher speeds including up to 3400 Mhz.

can overclocking damage anything (ill probably google it)? also do u think this is a good ram (srry bout all the random questions).

It can if not done correctly. Overclocking anything increases the speed of the component typically creating additional heat and can cause instability. However if done correctly, it's pretty cool and not very difficult.

For gaming purposes, faster RAM doesn't really do much. There are a handful of games that may see a 5-10% increase but most games you won't see any benefit. Faster RAM helps in other applications. Same with overclocking a CPU.

it has been proven by Jayztwocents on youtube that faster am would give you more FPS. He tested in battlefield that 1600mhz DDR3 would give you around 50 frames with the setup he was using. he then overclocked to 1866 and got him to around 55 frames. with DDR4 3000+ memory that would give you about 75 frames becuase you are using a 2011 cpu as well.

As with your other posts. you're going to have to post legitimate reviews and benchmarks. Not Youtube videos.

Sigh. Once again, Youtube videos are useless because they never tell the whole story. Funny enough, even your video states that you're wrong.

Again, RAM speed does not affect gaming performance.

It does, but it isn't really worth getting a larger speed of ram unless you are doing rendering or something like that. The performance is so small that it really doesn't count so it really is just a "sorta maybe...no?"

No it doesn't. Like I said, professional reviews with documented testing processes show it doesn't.
