A data XPG Spectrix D45G RGB: review of a set of modules with a frequency of 3600 MHz

Prices for DDR4 today are not just at comfortable levels, but at such levels that all DIMM slots on the motherboard can be clogged with memory modules, as long as they are not empty. If you are not planning to upgrade the platform to AMD with DDR5 support in the near future, you can install the maximum amount of supported memory in your computer, overclock it to a substantial 3.6 GHz and, most likely, not worry about a lack of RAM in the coming years. Prices for DDR4 today are not just at ...

Adata Falcon plus Goodram PX500 - testing RAID from cheap NVME drives

What happens if you take two NVME disks: one faster, the other slower, and build a simple RAID from them? Will a faster SSD be able to pull off the speed of a slower one? We will check in working office loads. In general, if we look at hard drives from the point of view of performance, then everything is simple and clear, and even the slow "green" models at 5400 RPM do not differ much from the server ones at 10 and 15 thousand RPM, unless of course the manufacturer is clever with ...

Do you need fast DDR4-3600 memory in tasks for a workstation on the example of XPG Spectrix D50

The main question we are looking for an answer to is whether memory speed will affect the performance of tasks, and if so, to what extent. To answer it, we will use real-world application tasks that require large-scale calculations of 32 cores. A modern workstation is always an AMD processor, most likely a Threadripper or EPYC series, but in extreme cases - Ryzen 7, and as you know, these CPUs are very sensitive to RAM performance. Old-school PC builders may recommend that you use ECC ...

Impact of memory settings on server performance using the example of Transcend DDR4-2400 ECC modules (TS1GHR72V4H)

There is an opinion that in the server all BIOS settings that relate to RAM should be left in the "Auto" value, install modules in pairs, of the same manufacturer and the same size, buy only one manufacturer and even one series. We received two Transcend DDR4-2400 ECC RDIMMs for testing, and today we will test ancient myths and see what memory actually affects when it comes to two types of virtual machines: VDI (virtual desktop) and SQL. There is an opinion that in the server all ...
