upgrading ram

Go to solution Solved by alatron978,

Try overclocking the kit you have. All most all kits can do 2800-2933 with reasonable timings. If you don't want to overclock, 3200 16-18-18-36 is the best option for ryzen and 3000 15-17-17-35 for intel in terms of value.

I have hyper x fury ddr4 2400 15 15 15 35. as ram speeds are becoming more important whats a decent upgrade from this. would 3200 16 18 18 39 be decent?

I will reccomend micron e die ram for the forseable future. Its cheap ( £36 for 8gb stick ), and can overclock really well. If you buy an 8gb stick of crucial ballistix sport lt (bls8g4d30aesbk) at 3000mhz cl15, you can overclock it to 3600mhz cl16 which is a really good speed. Its cheap too, using the prime day 20% off amazon warehouse deal, I was able to buy an 8gb stick for under £30. Highly reccomend this kit for you.
