The odds results are because of latency. In some cases, a single stick adds performance due to quicker access times. In other cases, the latency and interleaving balance each other out. In more demanding situations, and moving forward, the lower latency for small amounts of data will become irrelevant. Same principle as ring vs mesh bus.

[@AncientGameplays]

Makes sense, forgot about that

[@remypascal4872]

What is about dual channel between two different ram chips, when internal on a notebook logic board is soldered and the second port has other producer company, a bit other clocks? Maybe two different kind of DDR5...

[@billybbob18]

@@remypascal4872 You can match two sticks of different speeds. My computer has a 1600MHz stick and the other is 1766MHz I think. They run fine in the dual channel configuration. It's been that way for at least since the SDRAM days(mid 90's or even earlier). AFIK you can mix any combination of size and speed as long as it follows the motherboard specification for maximum possible RAM and type(SDRAM, DDR, DDR2 etc.).

[@zaren910]

Cool to see these results, in the past have seen a lot of conflicting information on whether Single Rank or Dual Rank was better, adding 2 sticks vs 4 to the mix was great too.

[@Embreh89]

in the past we did not have ddr5. ddr5 is already runing in dual channel on its own, thats why we dont see much gains from adding a second stick. if you do this test with ddr4 only the differences would be bigger.

[@RobBCactive]

When Zen3 came out reviewers benchmarks split into 2 different groups, the difference discovered was DDR rank to general surprise. The 2xdual or 4xsingle showed significantly higher performance, but it hadn't mattered much before. Things change with time but unfortunately the net is full of undated over general statements without reasoning that become cargo cult "it is known" persistent myths. Dual DDR5 module (as Fabio recommended) is now the best bet to reach the rated EXPO RAM speeds on a mobo. Everything is pushed nearer limits and the BIOS memory tuning harder to get right. The supported speed for 4x configs is much lower.

The info was presented in a way that allows for quick learning. Clear terminology with no amount of unneeded jargon. Even my attention deficit behaved. I'm subbed now. Keep it up. I just took a stick of 8GB out of a throwaway dell micro workstation and added it to my HP laptop. It recognizes it as 16GB dual channel and the map load times for Liftoff Drone Simulator were cut in half. A noticeable graphics improvement was just icing on the cake. Running 720p low settings getting 60FPS with 30FPS dips. Not bad for Intel UHD620 integrated graphics. lol I think I was so memory bottle-necked that the GPU was not allocating enough RAM to act as VRAM. The performance difference between 8GB and 16GB on a modern system can be huge(a cheap upgrade these days).

Enjoying the subject, I once did a small overclock in my computer. After running fine for like, more than 1 week at least, I'm positive sure, I ran into a Video Internal-sumth' error. Found out it can be related to faulty hardware, O.S. errors, outdated drivers, or overclocking. The point, however, is that I also ran into a RAM issue once, while using Opera GX browser, and I constantly have some small lag spikes while gaming (at least into pretty much 70% of the games I play). Could it be I have either a faulty RAM or SSD? Or is it that AMD gpu-drivers are still kinda buggy to this date?

[@LautaroQ2812]

Suggestion: Notations on screen should be bundled up. I LOVE that you put the RAM picture, the GPU picture with its own voltage and clock speeds. That is awesome. But the fact they're all separated far away in different corners makes it hard to look for the information unless you're 100% actively watching the video in fullscreen, maybe. Perhaps you can do the same as now but put them all closer on the same side so it's easily readable. Amazing video!! Also another thing, how do you know if it's dual rank or single rank if they all have heatsinks installed? You can't see that.

[@yurisucupira]

I can't explain in too many details since I'm still in the beginning of my System Analysis' graduation course (just finished the 1st semester), but, based on what I've learned so far, these performance differences are mostly related to 2 things: instruction fetching and CPU caching through the buses. On a single channel RAM, only 1 stack of instructions can be searched within the RAM cell addresses and then copied to the L3 cache through the data, address and control buses that connect the CPU and its L3 caches to the RAM, but on a dual channel structure a couple of fetching processes occur in parallel and travel in parallel trough the buses. Finally, even though the 4x8GB scheme operates on 2 buses instead of 4, a speculative fetching technique reduces the time required to find a specific stack of instructions on RAM when the module is split in 2, i.e. the first set of (control, address and data) buses send electrical signals (sent by the CPU's internal control unit) to fetch instructions on the 1st and 2nd modules through speculative analysis (the analysis increases the likelihood that the required stack is going to be searched on the right RAM module on the 1st instance/attempt) while the same process occurs in parallel from the 2nd set of buses to the 3rd and 4th RAM modules. Hence, the tendency overall is that 1x32GB takes more time to provide stacks of instructions to the CPU's L3 cache than the 2x16GB scheme, and, compared to the 2x16GB scheme, the 4x8GB scheme tends to slightly reduce the amount of time required to find the stack of instructions on the RAM that need to be copied to the L3 cache. Anyway, this may be more or less relevant to each type of program, e.g. programs that require a lot of array processing (like 3D games) are probably going to benefit from the 4x8GB scheme more than a text processing application (whose instructions are mostly scalar data and some conditional loops i.e. simpler instructions that don't really need parallelism as much as graphics processing instructions do). There are other factors at work, too, like if the GPU is embedded on the CPU (i.e. the CPU is a SoC) or if the GPU is a separate unit, how the Front Side Bus is organized on the motherboard in relation with the CPU, RAM and GPU, and so on. Anyway, because the instructions are aggregated in stacks that are later fetched by the CPU and GPU, what I described in the paragraphs above plays a major role, performance-wise.

[@AncientGameplays]

Thanks for this better explanation of ranks and channels as well

[@yurisucupira]

@@AncientGameplays No prob. Nice vídeo. Very informative. 👏🏻🙂

[@yurisucupira]

10:22 This game's instructions are probably too long or aggregated in too big stacks, so they need a larger RAM module to fit in (they occupy a lot of memory cells at once) and, apparently, 16GB is the ideal (multiple) size for this game's instructions (i.e. both 32GB and 8GB tend to cause some fragmentation on the stacks, with the highest fragmentation severity happening on the 8GB modules). Apparently, the 4x8GB scheme is causing so much fragmentation that it's forcing the CPU to recurrently search and collect fragments through 2 or more RAM modules and then reconstruct them on the L3 cache (which is shared among all the CPU cores). Because these tasks (fragment fetching and reconstruction) require extra time, performance drops on the 4x8GB scheme. Increasing image density (like in the 4k case) adds more weight to GPU processing (i.e. it reduces the weight/relevance of the fetching and reconstruction effect in relation with this other factor of influence, because in this case the amount of time spent with image processing increases), thus making the module distribution/scheme less relevant (performance-wise) in this scenario. I mean: instruction fragmentation and image density compete in terms of which one is more relevant for overall processing performance, so the more you reduce the relevance of image density (by lowering it from 4k to e.g. 1080p) the more you increase the relevance of the other factor of influence (instruction fragmentation) performance-wise, and then the ideal scheme (which in this case is the 2x16GB one) performs better at lower image densities. There are many other variables at work at the same time in these scenarios, like e.g. how and in which order the program (game) sends its instructions to the operating system, how the operating system (re)organizes and allocates these instructions as system processes, how it physically organizes them on the RAM through its kernel (which provides the HAL - Hardware Abstraction Layer) and so on.

Very interesting results! As you explained in the beginning, 1x16GB DIMM is typically single rank in DDR5, quite surprised that it has a measurable performance penalty. When 1x64GB or 2x32GB becomes mainstream in the distant future then the picture might look different.

I'll miss moving from quad channel on my old X99 HEDT platform later this year. But at least performance elsewhere has moved on nicely.

[@AncientGameplays]

[@dystopia-usa]

I ended up with 4x16GB (64GB) mainly because the two empty memory slots looked oddly incomplete to me on my ATX board when I initially built my latest system earlier this year with 2x16GB (32GB). Guess some latent OCD kicked in. 😆

[@Euronius]

I did the same thing with 4x8GB sticks, for a total of 32. Had only two initially, but my board looked weird, so I ended up doubling it. Thought I wasted money on what was essentially just a quirk, but noticing how 16GB is slowly becoming inadequate for today's gaming needs, I don't regret it one bit.

What was the speed and timing you set? Couldn't see it in the video, unless I missed it.

Or were you forced to run more like 6000cl32-38-38-96?

[@AncientGameplays]

Thank you

[@Parzival1702]

Thanks for the video. Really enjoy watching these. You barely mentioned that four slots of 8GB ram VS two 16GB ram there is also a noticeable price difference between the two which also makes it less ideal (e.g. the increase of performance vs the difference in price will not match. The price is going to be higher than the difference in performance so 4 sticks will loose on a performance per dollar value as well and will also be the case because there are more sticks of ram to produce therefore the costs to manufacture go up even if they are less capacity than the two 16GB ram sticks). Just my observation.

[@AncientGameplays]

Thanks, here the price is basically the same, the 4x8 us barely more expensive, BUT, once again, you're running out of slots and it is way harder to OC

In the 13 Games Average you have the Witcher 3 Blood & Wine in the background but you rarely test the 7900 xtx in this game. Could you please tell me how many fps you get in this game on 4k resolution + TAAU + ultra settings? I can barely manage to go over 60 in some areas of the game despite 1 year old footage from the game on youtube showing better fps. Maybe the game got broken by some updates?

4 sticks ram was a nightmare on DDR5. 2 fixed tons of instability issues. No issue ddr4.

[@AncientGameplays]

8gg sticks were fine here

What speed though? Frequency can't be achieved as well on majority of boards with all four slots occupied. ​@@AncientGameplays

[@1984Captive]

@@AncientGameplays I think it was my mobo. b650 msi tomahawk. Seen tons of complaints on forums regarding that board.

Could resolve itself over time and BIOS updates…but who knows how long that would take if that’s even what it is

[@1984Captive]

@@kenshirogenjuro873 The AM4 tomahawk was a champ, this one is a cash grab riding the old reputation. Hard to tell what to do since you can't buy asus. Won't touch gigabyte since it's flakey... Don't see any particular compnay besides sapphire or EVGA (non mobo) as trustworthy.

Say that I want to use all 4 sticks of RAM 4x48 GB (192GB) i9 12900k CPU for 3d/animation/filmmaking. Will I get a better performance or will get the same performance as 2 sticks of RAM?

[@Chuuchuu0]

Nice video bro .. I luky I have 4x16 ddr5 6400mt .. on a unify z690 .. I have managed to tweak the ram to cas 30 ... Basically tweak timings instead of going for higher mt .. and tweaked ram can be just as good as a higher speed ram .. nice video 😊😊thnks

Is it possible in laptop 8 gb 4800 ram and 16 gb 4800 ram both use at same time in??

[@Riztard]

does 3 ram will have different result from 4 ram configuration? for example 4x8 vs 2x8+1x16. also will the position matter for that 3 ram configuration. im curious

[@enriconapolitano4321]

Are you confusing or is a typo between the words Rank and or Bank or are both words interchangeable?

[@AncientGameplays]

Banks are one thing ranks are another

[@Nintenboy01]

On AM4 either 2x dual rank sticks or 4x single rank sticks saw a performance impovement as well
