What's the best DDR4 at 2666mhz?

[jaymes2015]

I wasn't sure what memory ram is good on the market right now so I ordered these Vengeance LPX 2400mhz 16gb from Best Buy.

I'll be building the MSI B450 Tomahawk soon and I think the motherboard supports 2667Mhz maximum for non-overclock.

Well, let me know what ram is good on the market at 2667mhz. I feel like these Vengeance LPX 2400mhz is going to make my pc run slow.

You would not notice any difference from 2400 to 2667.

 

[jaymes2015]

Are you sure? I did a comparison and it says about 10% difference.

 

[alexoiu]

Maybe in benchmark. But, in real life... no difference. Excepting the price

 

[jaymes2015]

Okay. Can someone notice the speed difference from 2666mhz down to 2133mhz?

You can check https://techbuyersguru.com/gaming-ddr4-memory-2133-vs-26663200mhz-8gb-vs-16gb?page=4
Again, it's just about numbers. In real life... costs do not justify the gain in performance.

Best 2666 ram is HyperX Predator, the model with 13 cas
Product number : HX426C13PB3
Low cas =faster
If you find one with 12 cas, that is either hyperx, corsair lpx or G.Skill, go for it.
