hello, looking to upgrade ram to something faster. pc is mostly used for gaming.  curent set up is useing

ram G.Skill Trident Z RGB Series 288-Pin SDRAM (PC4 24000) DDR4 3000 CL16-18-18-38 1.35V (4 sticks 8 gb 32 gb total)

Motherboard MSI MEG X570 ACE

CPU AMD Ryzen 9 5900X

 

speed of games loading seems to have slowed over the years and only things old in pc atm are ram and video card (rtx 2070) so i am thinking between there speed and age the ram is just not keeping up. someone also advised me that smaller sticks, may help as well. i do have minor ascetic requirements but in current market dont think will be a issue.  they need to be black, rgb a plus but not required.

What is your storage device? This may be a drive problem not a memory one. 32 GB should be plenty and even at 3000 mHz, which is a bit slow these days, there should not be a noticeable performance drop.
