Question about G.Skill Trident Z5 RGB
is 6400mhz with 32 cas better or 6000mhz with 30 cas?
Helpful answer
It depends on what you have in mind. There is no general better or worse. What you can say in general, however, is that if you work a lot with sequential reading and writing (compression/decompression, for example), then more Mhz would be better, for random access lower latencies would be better (gaming). But only up to a certain point, because the actual latency is formed from CAS and Mhz.
In this case, even the 6400s would be better in both, though not noticeably for you most likely:
CAS Latency CL
32 (corresponds to ~10.00ns)
Row-to-Column Delay tRCD
39 (corresponds to ~12.19ns)
Row Precharge Time tRP
39 (corresponds to ~12.19ns)
Active-to-Precharge Time tRAS
102 (corresponds to ~31.88ns)
vs. the 6000 CL30:
CAS Latency CL
30 (corresponds to ~10.00ns)
Row-to-Column Delay tRCD
38 (corresponds to ~12.67ns)
Row Precharge Time tRP
38 (corresponds to ~12.67ns)
Active-to-Precharge Time tRAS
96 (corresponds to ~32.00ns)

Depending on cpu and MB I have 6400 cl32 2x32gb
