May be a novice question but is there that much difference with ddr3 and ddr4 ram?

 

[Nikolas Killa]

Yes

 

[Jadon Castro]

Mainly clock speed

 

[Iskandar Mok]

yeah.. ddr4 is more faster than ddr3

 

[Iskandar Mok]

better with ddr4 to play a game or anything ..thats a good choices

So 8gb ddr4 is better that 32gb ddr3? Just trying to get a base line.

 

[Scott Pooler]

same cpu, slowest ddr4, or fastest ddr3? and go!

 

[Andrew Cobb]

If you subtract ddr3 from ddr4 you’re left with ddr

 

[Chris McAlpin]

Gotcha

 

[Ragnar C Ragnar]

some motherboards and cpu have different requirements, the newer boards usually use ddr4

 

[Ragnar C Ragnar]

Oh, forgot to say, they are not interchangeable

 

[Chris McAlpin]

Just looked at the board I'm going to get, ddr4 only... Makes it easier now

 

[Chris McAlpin]

Anyone have any info on high density and low density ram?

 

[Siddharth A Gupta]

hello there..
the difference between DDr3(1366-2400) mhz and ddr4(2100-3600) is in nanoseconds.So if u can feel a difference between 20Ns and 8 ns then yes there is a difference,but not big....

 

[Sean Wilson]

Honestly, there’s no real difference if just games playing.

DDR4 is more ‘future proof’ as it’s newer.

 

[Furat Al Furqan]

in games,you wont notice the difference.but ddr4 should be the choice as the newer cpu/mobo supports it ( ik you wont be able to use ddr3 with these xD)

 

[Brice Coleman]

short answer, no

 

[Jesse Kiesel]

Yes.
