I recently stumbled my way through building a PC. i got the Intel Core i7-14700k with TEAMGROUP RAM (32GB [2x 16GB]; speed 6000, 38 CL [clock latency])
after looking into adding additional RAM, I learned a little bit about CAS/CL. My question, did I make a big mistake getting 38 CL? I focused on speed, but just learned about CL. Am I greatly missing out on performance with 38, or its not that big of a deal? Is there is big mismatch here between CPU and RAM?
thanks!
Realistically, probably not. If your workload is highly memory bound, and sensitive to latency, you would be leaving a little performance on the table. But, I wouldn't stress over it. It's certainly not going to bottleneck your CPU.
oh great! thanks for response
