Hello I would like to change my ram memory any advice.
-
Hello I have a computer that is very good but the ram is a bit short compared to the pc not to mention that the poor thing is struggling there. I'll tell you the motherboard I have and the CPU and from there help me choose a good ram.
Motherboard: GA-X79-UD5 from Gygabyte and socket 2011
CPU: I7-3820 with OC to 4.3GHZ.The ram I currently have are 2 modules of 4gb Kingston Hyperx at 1600ghz within the hyperx they are the most basic modules of all. I think they are no longer manufactured.
I would be interested in something with good speed that is well priced. If possible in modules of 8gb in case I never want to expand capacity without having to remove the modules that I would now take to be able to get the maximum performance out of the motherboard and the CPU.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ANSWERS
P.D: Mention that the motherboard has 8 sockets for cam and that it accepts up to 4 channel and up to 64GB of ram

Well, since you didn't explain what you want it for and how much budget you have, I'm afraid we can't help you :nono:

Hello, the team basically uses it to play and move virtual machines. Occasionally I do some video. And as soon as I have some time I want to start learning how to use autocad
-
- Games usually have between 8 and 16Gb to be on the safe side and depending on the game… or so they say, I don't play.
- Virtual machines I have no idea but I think from 16Gb all the RAM you can afford.
- AUTOCAD as software requires very little, I think with 2Gb or 4Gb you have more than enough because it's 32bits and therefore you are limited by software.
You forgot to say how much money you want to spend but personally I wouldn't invest a lot of money in a quadcore from two generations ago… or memory with many Mhz that is more expensive... it's a bit of throwing money away to gain maybe 1 or 2 FPS in games.

For now I intend to squeeze everything out of the current computer. That's why I don't mind investing in ram. When I change I think I'll make the full jump and go to 2011 v3 with DDR4 or stick with whatever comes next. The idea is to spend about 100€ but if it's worth it to get 8 more good gb and later get another 8gb the same or get 16gb not as good.
The change of CPU taking advantage of the platform for now I'm not even considering it although if I found a deal on something with 6 cores or so maybe I would consider it

Yes they are still on sale.
In fact, the 8 GB modules (same brand, model and frequency) are around 40 €, with little difference between the CL9 and CL10.
Just make sure the latencies are the same.Regarding the amount of RAM, and considering how much I usually stretch the equipment, I would put in as much as I could. It's better to be safe… :ugly:
Edit: With 16 GB I think you'll have a computer until you decide to change it.

Do you recommend any particular model for that?
I have talked to the boss and he said that if I wanted he would give it to me as a Christmas basket
Now I am waiting for the distributor to pass me a list of what he has and at what price -
The best thing as whoololon said is to get a couple of the same ones.Kingston HyperX Fury Blue DDR3 1600MHz PC3-12800 2x4GB CL10 DDR3 Memory
Buy the kit and for less than 49€ (which is what it will cost you with shipping) you already have 16Gb for a minimum price and on top of that you have quadchannel.
If not, instead of one, get 3 more kits that for 139€ you have 32Gb… any other option is more expensive because you won't be able to take advantage of the modules you already have (45€ that you save).
It all depends on whether you want to stay within the budget or stretch a little... RAM never hurts and for now you can take advantage of your modules... maybe in a few months or a year this type of upgrade is not possible... because DDR3 has already started to stop being manufactured and to adapt the production and assembly lines for DDR4... what's left is Stock in distribution channels and what's left to the manufacturers without packaging or labeling.
It's not that it's going to be impossible but stores will stop buying and therefore finding a specific model of memory will be either on eBay second-hand or New at a gold price like what happens with DDR or DDR2.
What I mean is that you shouldn't worry about leaving slots free for a possible future in which you can put more modules... my experience is that this is unlikely for various reasons that will happen before you change platforms. (different would be if it were a new computer with DDR4 of course)

hello everyone, the distributor has given me a price and these are very well priced, in fact, the boss would give them to me for free lol the problem is that I don't know which of the 2 to choose. Which are better? natively the motherboard says it accepts up to 2133mhz and for the moment I have no intention of doing oc to the bus.
Which of these 2 do you recommend
