This helps lots of tasks such as gaming (especially low 1% & 0.1% FPS) and latency-sensitive workloads. If you have more than 2 sticks, mainstream motherboards from both Intel and AMD allow you to run them in “Dual Channel” where not only you’ll have the full capacity of the sticks but also double the bandwidth.Making sure your RAM sticks run in Dual Channel. PremiumBuilds will soon feature an article on RAM tweaking so stay tuned!ģ. If you want to go further than running your RAM at stock speeds then there are tools out there like the Ryzen DRAM Calculator which help with calculating all the timings and frequencies needed for pushing your memory sticks to the edge.It usually takes 1 minute and 2 clicks to save you from sluggish performance and getting your money’s worth of performance out of your RAM modules. Don’t make the mistake of getting superior RAM (like 3000MHz) and letting it run at inferior speeds go into your BIOS and set XMP in your memory profiles.
In reality, lets take DDR4 RAM for example its base speed is 2133MHz and everything above that is technically an overclock.
Once the testing is done (usually takes 1-2 minutes max), you’ll be taken to a webpage where you can see a report of each of your components.When running this tool make sure that your system is as idle as possible (close background apps) to reduce margins of errors (bad results for CPU/storage/etc).In reality, UserBenchmark is really a great way to start diagnosing if something’s not working right. Many people will dismiss this tool because of its way of ranking together all the stock and overclocked components.Checking if you are getting the advertised performance out of your new build the easy way for everyone: UserBenchmark 4.1 Related * Most Important* Tips to Optimise PC Performanceġ.
