Crucial Ballistix MAX 4000 MHz DDR4 DRAM Desktop Gaming Memory Kit 16GB (8GBx2) CL18 (BLACK) $107.99 ATL

Is this better than 3600mhz cl16 that I got for 105.77? https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B083V93HJG
I haven't decided on the CPU yet. Going to see if 12400 will be affordable.

I have no idea. That's why I'm asking. From quick googling, it seem any benefits would probably not be worth the hassle to return / repurchase.

I stand corrected since you've already purchased the CL16 RAM, there would be a minimal difference in benefits. It would be considered by some a hassle to return them and purchase another set. A disadvantage with this RAM would be that you might need to fiddle around with the timings and voltage depending on which motherboard and processor e.g. AMD you're using. An advantage would be that the CL18 4000 Mhz performs slightly better in terms of OCing based off of what I've read from forums and from tech expert websites compared to what you currently have.

There was 1 left. Now OOS from Amazon. Weird back in stock now.

see if it disappears again. I added that last one to my cart (ships from and sold by amazon.ca). in cart it allowed me to change quantity to two and I checked out. main page still shows one in stock but won't add to cart.

not sure if it will be an improvement over the stock ram in the dell 8940 but the crucial memory finder tells me that it's compatible.

by the time I finished typing the above. oos now

first pair arrived yesterday. second pair out for delivery today.

not sure what I'm going to do with it yet but at least they shipped lol

if anyone still looking for something in the Ballistic MAX .. the RGB 16GB 4000Mhz (8GB x2) just dropped to $139. says one left but may let you order more as it did with the non-RGB one. I did end up getting the second pair Jan 6th.
