Legion 5 Pro Ryzen 5800H RTX3060 Memory

Go to solution Solved by Kilrah,

No, they're pretty much equivalent. Timings are specified in clock cycles, the faster memory having faster clocks means the CL number gets higher for the same actual latency in terms of time.

 

17/2400 * 3200 = 22.66.

I have ordered the Lenovo Legion 5 Pro. I saw online that it comes with 2×8 CL22 3200MHz memory. I have my old laptop with 2×8 CL17 2400MHz memory. If I swap the new memory with my old one will it perform better due to timings?

Oh OK. I did not know that. Thank you!
