Ram upgrade causes fps drop

[yon vannucci]

Hello, i just upgraded my sp 3200 mhz ram to patriot viper 4400mhz ram and i am experiencing 10-30 fps drop in both games i tested (warzone, cyberpunk)

specs:

ryzen 5 5800x

msi rx 6600

500w antex ps

water cooling cooling master

ssd drivers

patriot viper 4400mhz

lenovo monitor 165 hz

what might the problem be?

try something lower like 3600 or 3800...

 

problem could be the infinity fabric (tm) isnt synced, or even just simply regression,  just because the Ram can run at that speed doesn't necessarily mean the memory controller can handle it.

 

ps: also can you confirm the Ram actually runs at 4400 or did you just plug it in without XMP, etc? (no information was given about that)

Xmp was activates it runs on 3244mhz 1.35v

When I lowered the speed to 3200 it didn't make any difference

Is this something new or did this already happen before you changed the Ram?

Ok, check if there are different XMP profiles or presets, something like 4000mhz, 4200mhz...

The only other profile is 4400mhz 1.45 v and it was still the same
