I just picked up a Ryzen 7 1700 for a bargain. I currently have one 8gb 2400mhz crucial ballistix sport lt ram stick, but since Ryzen benefits so much from dual channel and higher ram speeds I want to buy another stick. The thing is, 3000mhz sticks are really cheap, just as cheap as 2400mhz ram right now. I am willing to overclock my ram, so my options are:
- buy 3000mhz stick, and overclock 2400mhz to match (is this even possible?), This way in the future I can replace the 2400 stick and still have one 3000mhz.
- or buy another 2400mhz stick and overclock them both
What should I do?
