Is 2400 or 2133 RAM better?
The 2133 speed that Intel lists is only the officially supported speed. Faster memory will work just fine, but will faster memory, like DDR4-2400 improve the performance of your gaming PC over DDR4-2133 memory? They also say that more memory is always better.
Can I use 2400mhz instead of 2133MHz?
Betreff: Can I use 2400mhz ram with 2133mhz (on board soldered) ddr4 ram. Yes, you can. When the BIOS detects that the RAM is too fast for the memory controller or faster than the rest of the system memory, the fastest RAM will be clocked down to the speed of the lowest RAM.
Why is my RAM speed 2133 instead of 2400?
The validated RAM speed for your system is DDR4 2400. DDR4 3200 is default at 2133 unless you have XMP in the BIOS settings. If you do not see XMP in the settings and a new BIOS does not add that additional setting than you will continue to run at 2133.
Can you use 2133 and 2666 Ram together?
yes, everything will work fine only your ram wont work at 2666mhz but at 2133mhz instead..
Can a 2666mhz ram in 2133mhz motherboard?
What is BIOS XMP?
Intel XMP (Extreme Memory Profile) allows users to easily overclock XPG memory by modifying settings in the BIOS, by that achieving. even better performance than factory defaults without complex and often risky changes to memory voltages or frequencies.
Is 2133 RAM a bottleneck?
On Intel I’d suggest getting something in the DDR4-3000 range or so, 2133 is actually a pretty decent bottleneck on modern Intel CPU’s. The benefits of extra memory bandwidth are highly game dependent though. Some games will not be bottlenecked at all at 2133, other games get 20 extra frames if you use 3000.
Is 2133MHz RAM good enough?
You’ll be fine with 2133MHz for most games but for others like Fallout 4 RAM speed is a big deal. During the DDR3 era, faster RAM used to cost a fortune for little to no returns and it made no sense to buy more than 1600MHz unless you had specific needs (like AMD’s APUs).
