DDR4: is it worth the upgrade? v.2

I just realized about the mouse, but about everything else - no!

What kind of horror are you writing? We say that in any case you need good RAM, maybe not Crucial DDR4, but branded and 8-16 GB. And the mouse Klava ... is a show-off)

Yeah, good RAM, especially ddr4 and crucial. Vidosik recently saw, so there is a computer for 300 thousand rubles and Virtus Pro play on it, and so on it ddr3 costs nothing, the boys play and even win!

Well, in the game, will the RAM or video card be more important to you? But I thought that such teams had already switched to motherboards with socket 2011-3, I even thought that they had RAM from Kingston or Crucial.

It is hardly worth switching to DDR4 trims now. After all, it is necessary that your motherboard supports this type of memory. In addition, if you buy DDR4 strips, you will have to throw out the DDR3 strips. Of course, they are much more productive than DDR3, but still DDR3 4x2 is enough for games so far. Therefore, you should not rush to make a choice, it is better to think 100 times. You can always replace the RAM, don't rush.

I can say one thing about ddr4.
As recently as yesterday I was looking at the sets of ozu - ddr3 in Yulmart and accidentally looked into dd4. I was surprised because they cost the same - a set of 4x4GB cost 11k. The error is within a thousand.
In this situation, it is worth taking ddr4 if the computer is going to be new, and you still need to take something.

Googling is not difficult. There are just cells with a capacitor / transistor. Those who argue the most about the topic do not know exactly this. And I'm more than sure that there are not many more than 10 people in the entire forum who fully know the principle of operation of any type of RAM. And yes, frequency doesn't solve everything.

Once I read a comparison between DDR3 and 4. IMHO, now you shouldn't switch to 4 just because of the price. In DDR4, the bank switching speed is higher, the frequency is higher (so far a controversial advantage), the energy efficiency is better.

yes the prices are almost equal.

for ordinary users zero sense

it is only worth if you assemble a new PC
and then it is better to wait
until the price still falls,

and if there is a working PC,
then it is better to wait
until more impressive results are squeezed out of 4, otherwise an
increase of 5% PERFORMANCE is not always
worth the cost of switching to 4
only if you have nowhere to put the money
my opinion is

Well, if about DDR3, then everything is ok. BUT it seems to me that it is already necessary to slowly move to DDR4, such as crushing sports, elites. Well, this is purely my opinion.

to move to DDR4, you need to completely change all the hardware in the PC, while DDR4 is supported only by intel processors and motherboards, AND NOT THE CHEAPEST.
So what is there to put the question in a different way, but to ask: Should I change the whole PC ???
