1600Mhz vs 1866vs 2133Mhz RAM

[seamon]

What is the difference between
1600Mhz CL11, 1866Mhz CL10 and 2133 Mhz CL11 RAM? Which one is the best among the 3?

ALl of them are DDR3 and 8x2GB

I think it depends on how much your CPU supports.

 

[Faun]

2133 Mhz CL11 if your processor supports it natively.

Otherwise 1866Mhz CL10 as second option.

 

[seamon]

My CPU supports 2133Mhz.

How much difference are we looking at here? Difference in gaming/booting/Matlab/ C/Java/vPython programming.

DDR3: 2133MHz vs 1866MHz vs 1600MHz vs 1333MHz

It won't be more than 2-5%.

I currently have 1600Mhz memory in my laptop, 1866Mhz chips are lying in my desk and just ordered 2133Mhz memory. I will just return the 1866Mhz memory. Electronics are cheaper in the US btw

In short
Gaming: No difference
Programming: Negligible difference
Video Editing/Rendering: Visible small difference
CPU intensive applications: Visible small difference

Spend the money for 2133 MHz memory only if you are into video editing, animation, 3D rendering or any CPU intensive application. Otherwise just go for 1600MHz memory sticks and save the money for GPU.

Already have a GTX 980Ti in my gaming laptop.

Are you considering it from the pay standards present there ?

Pani Puri I can see why because it's not popular there. Demand and supply.

A McDonald meal is cheaper than vegetables. The economics of large scale commodity crops, standardization and subsidies keep the price lower.

I used to get processed food for cheap while I was in NZ. It's the fresh vegetables and fruits which were costly.

Pretty important stuff about food we eat.

 

[anirbandd]

good quality food is wayyyy more expensive in US/abroad.

on the other hand, junk food like kfc, McD, subway etc are dirt cheap.

[MENTION=20614]Faun[/MENTION] I desperately want to eat pani puris lol.

So, 2133Mhz RAM good?

2133MHz is good. Newegg ?

I'd rather buy a game. Besides, American college food is nothing short of legendary.
