What platform are you using? What capacity do you need? Are you willing to enable one-click overclocking?

After the wild price swings of 2025, the price gap between DDR5 and DDR4 has narrowed to just 20%–30%. For new PC builds, DDR5 is the smarter choice; for legacy platform upgrades, DDR4 still holds practical value.

“The bigger the RAM, the faster your computer.” This is easily one of the most misunderstood tech myths ever. Countless PC builders follow this rule blindly: they push for 32GB even on tight budgets, feel their 16GB is lacking when friends use 64GB, and even treat fully populated RAM slots as a symbol of ultimate performance.
