Hey, I was wondering what RAM you recommend for a 3d Rendering workstation. I'm looking at 1600 ram with CL10 or 9 vs 1866 RAM with CL10/11. As far as i understand it, since my 4930k doesnt have a integrated graphics unit, everything above 1866 doesn't really make sense. 1866 with cl 10 should be better than 1600 cl9 for programs that benefit from the higher bandwith but updates slower if i got that right? so 1600 cl9 can update faster when being confronted with tons of small data, while 1866 is slower but can be fed with larger packets simultaneously?
also i was wondering if running my mem at a lower frequency eg. 1600 (1866 is recommended for the 4930k) will have any effect on my cpu performance? i guess not since there is no such thing as fsb anymore, but what do I know
these are the kits that i was looking at:
4x8gb Mushkin Blackline Frostbyte 1600, CL 10 (255€)
4x8gb Corsair Vengeance low profile 1600, CL9 (280€)
4x8gb Corsair Vengeance Dominator 1866 CL9 (350€)
4x8gb Mushkin Blackline Ridgeback 1866 CL11 (308€)
4x8gb Mushkin Blackline Ridgeback 2133 CL11 (290€)
