Posted November 15, 2019 looking to pair it with a 3400g. does the mhz and the "c" number matter for engineering softwares? no gaming involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't matter for that software exactly. But you should have at least 3000-3200mhz RAM for that CPU, because it'll make the graphics much faster, and the CPU a fair bit faster in general. Are you building a new PC? If so what budget/country? I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly... Spoiler What is your budget/country for your new PC? what monitor resolution/refresh rate? What games or other software do you need to run?

Posted November 15, 2019 That depends on how memory intensive the app is. Does it just reserve a lot of memory and/or does it perform a large number of reads/writes? The MHz determine how quickly you can read/write to/from memory and the c-number (CAS latency) determines how long it takes to address a particular part of that memory.

Posted November 15, 2019 AutoCAD isnt very memory intensive in my experience. Faster RAM with a lower C number is always better, with diminishing returns around 3600MHz and C14 Brands I wholeheartedly reccomend (though do have flawed products): Apple, Razer, Corsair, Asus, Gigabyte, bequiet!, Noctua, Fractal, GSkill (RAM only) Wall Of Fame (Informative people/People I like): @Glenwing @DrMacintosh @Schnoz @TempestCatto @LogicalDrm @Dan Castellaneta Useful threads: How To Make Your Own Cloud Storage Spoiler Guide to Display Cables/Adapters Spoiler PSU Tier List (Latest)- Spoiler Main PC: See spoiler tag Laptop: 2020 iPad Pro 12.9" with Magic Keyboard Spoiler PCPartPicker Part List: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/gKh8zN CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 3.8 GHz 12-Core OEM/Tray Processor (Purchased For $419.99) Motherboard: Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Formula ATX AM4 Motherboard (Purchased For $356.99) Memory: G.Skill Trident Z RGB 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-3000 Memory (Purchased For $130.00) Storage: Kingston Predator 240 GB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive (Purchased For $40.00) Storage: Crucial MX300 1.05 TB 2.5" Solid State Drive (Purchased For $100.00) Storage: Western Digital Red 8 TB 3.5" 5400RPM Internal Hard Drive (Purchased For $180.00) Video Card: Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2070 8 GB WINDFORCE Video Card (Purchased For $370.00) Case: Fractal Design Define R6 USB-C ATX Mid Tower Case (Purchased For $100.00) Power Supply: Corsair RMi 1000 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply (Purchased For $120.00) Optical Drive: Asus DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD Writer (Purchased For $75.00) Total: $1891.98 Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available Generated by PCPartPicker 2020-04-02 19:59 EDT-0400 身のなわたしはる果てぞ 悲しわたしはかりけるわたしは Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted November 15, 2019 If you are using the integrated graphics, yes the speed will matter. Also make sure to use two modules, using a single module will cut graphics performance approximately in half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
