Is DDR4 still good in 2022?
Is DDR4 still good in 2022? Most titles perform similarly on either memory standard. This makes the newer memory stick entirely pointless, at least for now. Based on the benchmark results, most gamers will get DDR4 for gaming in 2022.
Will DDR5 prices go down?
Due to slowdowns with PC component demand, DDR5 prices have been steadily declining in the past few months. Industry insiders believe that the downward trend will continue into 2023, when the gap between DDR4 and DDR5 prices could be significantly reduced.
Is more sticks of RAM better?
2 Sticks of RAM are generally less expensive than 4 Sticks. It’s easier to push higher memory speeds and lower CAS latencies with fewer sticks. Dual Channel support is a guarantee; Quad Channel support is not. You can add more Modules at a later date if you find you need higher RAM capacity (read this first)
Is DDR4 future proof?
No such thing as future proofing on a first generation new arch. My first gen DDR4 setup (5960x/5930k, X99 Classified, 4×8 DDR4) you could say it was semi-future proof thanks to quad channel, but this mainstream stuff right now will be obsolete within one or two generations max for sure.
