What is the max mhz ram speed?

Technically the official DDR4 spec caps out at 3600 MHz, but even today (in 2022), the limits of DDR4 kits are regularly being pushed to even higher frequencies. Additionally, most DDR4 kits start being sold at around 2133 or 2400 MHz rather than 1600 MHz, which is still within the range of DDR3 speeds.

What is the highest ram speed?
Frequencies of RAM typically range from 800MHz in older DDR2 modules up to 5200MHz in DDR5. Current gen DDR4 modules usually run at 3200MHz.

Does ram speed matter?
The CPU will inevitably ask the RAM for some data, and when that happens, the RAM becomes the bottleneck, so in theory, faster RAM means better performance.

Does intel limit ram speed?
For example, The Intel® Xeon® Silver Processors support DDR4 memory with a maximum speed of 2400 MHz. DDR4-2666 memory may be used with these processors but will be used at a maximum speed of 2400 MHz if supported by both the memory and motherboard.

Does ssd affect ram speed?
The theoretical maximum speed of RAM is in its PC number, so a module of PC3-12800 memory can transfer 12,800MB/sec--roughly 30 times faster than the real world performance of an SSD. Directly substituting an SSD for RAM would end up significantly slowing down your system.
