Want to upgrade my PC, but is considering to upgrade/change RAM first. Reason to upgrade RAM cos I game with chrome and other apps open and the upon checking task manager, the memory is taking 60%-65% most of the time and my PC freezes sometimes.
Few questions to ask:
- Should I add on to my current RAM or buy other RAM? E.g. Buy 2x8GB same brand and same speed.
- If I were to buy other RAM, will G.Skill Trident Z Neo 3600Mhz CL14 cause any error for my intel build as it is optimised for AMD build?
- Any other RAMs to recommend? Budget around $400. (Was told that CL14 is better than CL16 & CL18 so would prefer to have CL14/CL16. Please also recommend where to get it, thanks)
Thanks all in advance for guiding me.
