Top 10th Best Ram For Ryzen 1700

 

So: if you want the best, take some RAM that reaches high frequencies (the B-Die we are talking about below, for example), but if you want to make a reasonable investment what is called the sweet spot (or the number which gives the best performance / price ratio) is between 2400 and 2666 Mhz.

Keep in mind that a frequency of 3000Mhz, compared to an example of 2400, will give you a very low performance increase, below 5%, in terms of frames taken (speaking of video games). Worth it? Okay.

Not forgetting latency!

If we want to be picky, we must also consider latency when evaluating a RAM memory.

The latency is expressed in the technical specifications of the RAM memory with a number close to the initials CL (CAS latency) and is a parameter that indicates the number of cycles used between sending a request and the "response": to make it ultra -simple, how much time elapses between the moment the processor tells the memory to access a data, and the moment this data is available.

Therefore, latency is just as important as frequency, and these two values ​​must be considered simultaneously to better assess the best RAM for our needs. The low latency, that is, a low CL value, and the high frequency make for excellent RAM.

RAM with Ryzen "sticker"

Given the difficulty of matching Best Ram For Ryzen 1700 and processor to Ryzen's output, the manufacturers had a good idea: put a check mark on their volatile memory packages to indicate that yes, it was good for newer AMD processors. And above all, that the frequency written on the package - as long as the motherboard can handle it - is similar to the real one.

But then things fell apart, and the memories with the Ryzen stamp rose in price. Ok, take some memory specified in the package as compatible with the different Zen processors, but mostly trust AMD who has published a compatibility list!

In short, as always: we do not fall into the traps (voluntary or not) of marketing.
