So right now i have 16GB Gskill Ripjaws V 2400, and i want to buy another kit. Should i buy the 3000 CL15 one, even though it is going to get downgraded to 2400 in case i can sell my old kit and then buy another 3000 one or just go with another 2400?

Then you might as well. Or, overclock your current kit of ram and see if it lives up to your standards.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

I got my 2400 kit to 2800 without much effort. You should definitely try OCing before getting a faster kit.

You want to run both kits or swapping one for the other?

The problem is that this is an nVidia product and scoring any nVidia product a "zero" is also highly predictive of the number of nVidia products the reviewer will receive for review in the future.

I wasn't wrong. It's extremely rare that I am. I provided sources as well. Different devs can disagree. Further, we now have confirmed discrepancy from Twitter about he use of the pre-release 1080 driver in AMD's demo despite the release 1080 driver having been out a week prior.

You apparently haven't seen his responses to questions on YouTube. He is very condescending and aggressive in his comments with which there is little justification. He acts totally different in his videos. I don't necessarily care for this content style and there is nothing really unique about him or his channel. His endless dick jokes and toilet humor are annoying as well.

They will run at their slowest EDIT: compatible speeds and timings, so not worth it unless you want to swap your existing 2400 kit too.

I know that they will both run at CL15 2400, but im just saying in case i can resell the kit i have, which shouldn't be too hard, and then buy another one at 3000, will it be worth it?

Sure. Memory speeds impact Ryzen a lot, but do expect to see small to medium gains overall in most applications.

I'd say buy the 3000 kit and OC the 2400. Replace the 2400 only if it refuses to get higher than the 2800 you've gotten before. I went ahead and got the 3000 kit of Trident Z because it was $5 more for the kit to jump from 2400mhz to 3000mhz. Started playing some Cities Skylines and maxed out the 2x8g kit in no time. Added a random 8g stick of kingston 2400 and was able to get them all running at 2933 with no effort really. Although it became unstable at 3000 but I just wanted to get back to the game without shutting everything down every time I play so I Didn't bother trying to get the little bump to 3000.

I'm not so sure about that statement. I have a ryzen, and running on 2133 or 3000 doesn't seem to change a whole lot in most applications. Maybe this is because of the games i'm playing, cities for instance or total war...
