Oh the reason why is because by default, it's just setting it to 2666, but there's obviously room for more there on this mobo.

Hey there. Total newbie here to overclocking. I recently won a RAM kit through a giveaway (V-Color Skywalker Plus 64GB (32x2) 4400MHz 19-26-26-46) and want to put it into my PC. My current mobo (MSI MS-7B86 "B450 Gaming Plus") only supports OC up to 3466MHz. I was curious if any more experienced overclockers could give some recommendations on timing settings (outside of just clicking XMP) for my mobo? Would 3200 at a certain timing setting be better than maxing out to 3466? As you can tell, this will be a massive upgrade from what I had, but a bit overkill for the rest of my system. Haha. (Plans to upgrade mobo and CPU in the future) but for now would like the best performance I can get out of this new RAM. Any thoughts? Full PC Specs: CPU: Ryzen 3600X RAM: V-Color 64GB (32x2) @ 4400MHz (previously 16GB (8x2) @ 2666MHz) Mobo: MSI B450 Gaming Plus (MS-7B86) OS SSD: WD_Black SN850 500GB (+ other storage SSDs) GPU: GTX1650 Super PSU: 450W

Thanks for your response! Can you give a brief explanation as to why you picked those items? I feel like the 2060 is a worse choice for video production, and having a slightly worse processor but better GPU would be more beneficial. But like I said, I don't know the video world as much as music, so I could be way off.

Hey everyone. My brother has asked me to put together a PC for him to do his video editing and music production for him. He does not do any 3D rendering, or really much VFX stuff, and he isn't working with anything more than 4k. For music production, he could have anywhere from 20-30 plugins and as many as 50 channels for a project. Now the music side of things I know and can build around that, but I don't know much about video production (he uses Adobe Premier, by the way). For Premier, what have you found to be the best options for GPU/CPU combos? I have seen a lot that Premier really likes Nvidia and their CUDA cores and doesn't play well with AMD. So I'm at that point now. I've attached a potential build list for what I have come up with, but wondering if anyone could give any more insight into best options for the best price. (Looking to stay under $2500). My biggest question really is if it will be more beneficial to have dual smaller GPUs (1660 SUPERS, giving a total of 12GB VRAM) or a single beefier GPU (2070ti or 2080, probably)? If the files don't load properly, here is the build: MOBO: MSI B450-A PRO w/ DDR4-2666, 7.1 Audio, Gigabit LAN, CrossFire CPU: Ryzen™ 7 3800X Processor, 3.9GHz w/ 40MB Cache RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 64GB DDR4 2666MHz CL16 Dual Channel Kit (4x 16GB), Black Storage: 860 EVO 2.5" SATA III 2.5in SSD, 250GB + BarraCuda 3.5in SATA III HDD w/ 256MB Cache, 2TB PSU: Toughpower Grand RGB Fully Modular Power Supply, 80+ Gold, 850W GPU: ROG STRIX GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER Advanced Edition 6GB PCI-E w/ Dual HDMI, Dual DP X2 TOTAL: $1994.91 pre-tax. OR have two sets of Viper RGB 16GB DDR4 2666MHz Dual Channel Kit (2x 8GB), Black for 32GB of RAM to save a little money. Kelly build 32.pdf Kelly Build 64 CORRECT.pdf
