Hey everyone! I'm considering purchasing a pair of 16GB Corsair DDR5 RAM sticks for my upcoming PC build. They run at 6000 MT/s but have a CAS latency of 36. I'm relatively new to RAM shopping, and I've heard that the difference between a CAS of 36 and something like 30 or 32 is pretty minimal. Plus, this deal feels like a steal given the current market prices. What are your thoughts?

Honestly, the difference isn't major. If you're at CL36, you're already in a solid spot. No need to stress over going lower if the price is right.
While lower is generally better, we're talking tiny performance differences here, like 1-3%. If the cost for lower latency is way higher, just grab the cheaper option!
This RAM is perfectly fine for general use. You really won't notice any significant difference in performance with that CAS latency.
Yeah, you probably won’t even feel a difference. Just go for what fits your budget!
I use the same RAM configuration, and it works great for me. No issues at all!
