latency doesn't matter. could be cl20 and it wouldn't matter. mhz is what matters, and 3200mhz is perfectly fine.

Been building PCs since before you were born. Ryzen only cares that you're above 3000mhz. Everything after that is is so minimal it doesn't matter.

Now its minimal? I thought you said it doesn't matter. You could have been building PC's wrong your whole life unfortunately.

I added a youtube video explaining the insignificance of cas latency in my original post.

Pretty good deal honestly. 32gb of 3200mhz will be more than enough for most the population, and CAS 16 is not horrible timings. CAS 14 would be preferred but also more expensive. Latencies do matter- but they are not the end all be all. They do make a difference in performance a low CAS 3200 can compete w/ 3600 CAS 18+. Also has 1 TB Sata SSD added into the equation I think it's a good deal for MOST people. if you're fine with having good stuff at a good price w/o needing the best of the best for everything. Think what your getting for the price is pretty decent imo.

Both of your replies are dismissive yet lacking in information. If you want a respectful response, maybe provide us your 2 cents on the topic.

In the case of CL 16 - 20, the difference in price is anywhere from $75 to $125. Can you justify why it would be worth spending that extra amount to buy CL 16 over CL 20 for that extra amount and not spend the difference on a higher class GPU?

Instead of saying, "You're wrong," maybe begin with answering my question.

If these are dual rank sticks, that in and of itself will provide a performance boost over single rank RAM, and largely negate the mediocre timings.

If you're a baller and can afford a 20/3080, then by all means, get the most tricked out RAM kit you can find. Otherwise, save your money.

LOL! Funny seeing these you kiddos think you know a thing or two about builds just because you kids watch linustechtips and YouTube videos. 90% of you don't even need 32GB's of ram but think it makes you cool if you have it. Smh

One, dual-rank RAM performs better than single rank. Two, some people like to multi-task and have lots of programs/windows open at the same time. Three, there's something to be said for wanting to future proof your system.

I only have 16GB of RAM in my machine, but I'm not going to put someone down for opting for 32GB. You can never be too rich, too thin, or have too much RAM.

Exactly my thoughts.
