I am uprgading my RAM to 32GB. I have now 2 8GB 2400MHz. Is it worth the money to upgrade all 32GB to faster RAM or just add another 16GB? Is there a noticable benefit from faster ram? My MB is MSI Z270-A PRO, it supports up to 3800MHz.

 

Thanks!

Sometimes can be less problematic to dump what you have and get new matching sticks. If you're getting another 2x8GB sticks to add to your 16GB you'll need to try and make sure they're compatible, timings match, etc. or you might run into issues. That being said on my old PC a few years back I added 8GB to bring it to 16GB using 2 new sticks that had the same speed but were different manufacturer and didn't have any issues. Personally I'd prefer to go with getting 2x16GB higher speed now but depends on your budget I guess. If you're gaming at above 1080p there's maybe not a huge difference with the speeds and for flight sims you'd probably get more benefit just out of having the 32GB rather than the speed of the RAM itself.
