As always the gains from better ram is so small that a CPU upgrade is usualy better for MOST aplications.
Of course if the CPU is super high end as in this case, a CPU upgrade is almost impossible or, it can have equal or better bang for buck. The 3dx cpus also has less issues with slow ram because of the extra chache.
I have the CL36 as the store i bought from didn't have CL30 in stock. Does anyone know a roughly the price difference between 64GB CL30 and CL36?
Yeah, I really feel like quantity over quality is the way for ram. Much more improvement adding on GB than increasing speed
Agreed. been building pc's around 2 decades now. RAM is something that really helps longevity of a system build. I ran a 2600k with 16gb of ram for 12 years, when I bought it everyone said it was overkill. New PCs now have about 16gb often lol... enough said. New rig is 64gb 6000 cl30, basically double or quadruple whatever is standard today and you'll be set.
