Solaer@lemmy.world 5 days agoThe i9-10900 has 4 channels (Quadro-Channel DDR4-2933 (PC4-23466, 93.9GB/s). would this be better in this way than an i9-14xxx (Dual-Channel DDR5-5600 (PC5-44800, 89.6GB/s))?
does the numbers (93 GB/s and 89GB/s) mean the speed for a RAM-stick or the speed all together? maybe an old i9-10xxx with 4channel-ram was better than a new dual-channel.

Seems to mean all together. (5600MT/s / 1000) x 2 sticks x 64bit / 8bits/Byte = 89.6 GB/s
or 2933/1000 x 4 x 64bit / 8 = 93.9 GB/s
so they calculated with double the DDR bus width, or 4times the bus width.
