Alright champs,
Refusing to buy RAM at current prices, so I had to improvise a bit.
My homelab needed my 2×16GB kit (F4-3600C18D-32GVK), so now my gaming PC is running a mix of random sticks:
- 2×8GB Crucial Ballistix Sport DDR4-2400
- 1×8GB Kingston DDR4-2666 (from a Dell prebuilt if I remember correctly)
- 1×8GB Samsung DDR4-3000
CPU: i5-12400F
Mobo: Asus b760 plus d4
I’ve only ever used XMP before, so this is my first time actually messing with RAM tuning.
So far I’ve just set Gear 1 (1:1). Command Rate is at 2T, which I’m guessing is because of the 4 mixed sticks. And I have made sure to put the crucial pair in the 2 and 4 position and the rest in the other slots.
I had a quick look at the wiki and will be trying to do it with that in mind. I’m at school right now, but I’d love to hear what you guys would try first when dealing with a setup like this — frequency vs timings, what’s realistic, etc.
