Hey everyone! I just got my hands on a Lexar Thor DDR4 3200MHz CL16 memory kit, and I'm curious about its overclocking potential. Also, I'd like to know how it might relate to my CPU and GPU setup:
- CPU: Ryzen 7 5700X (with an Asus Ryujin 360 cooler, which seems a bit excessive)
- GPU: Gigabyte RX 7600 8GB
My motherboard is an MSI B550 Gaming Plus and I'm using a 650W 80+ Bronze power supply. Any insights or tips would be greatly appreciated!

Honestly, overclocking RAM isn't always necessary. You typically want to do it if you're trying to squeeze out that last bit of performance for gaming or intensive tasks. Otherwise, it might not be worth the hassle.
Overclocking RAM can be a bit of a gamble. Each kit can behave differently, so you’ll need to experiment yourself to see how far you can push it. Just make sure you keep an eye on temperatures and system stability!

Got it! I just thought it might help with optimization for my setup.
