I've been doing some research on RAM upgrades since I play games that require 32GB at 1440p. Currently, I have 32GB of DDR5 CL36 running at 6200MHz (Corsair Vengeance), but I'm considering future-proofing by upgrading to 64GB of DDR5 CL38 at 6000MT/s, which is what's available locally. I've read about CL ratings and latency, and I'm questioning whether this upgrade makes sense or if I'm just overthinking it. I also stick with Corsair Vengeance for compatibility as my AIO cooler limits my options. Any thoughts?

If you're playing the latest games, going for 64GB does make a lot of sense. I've seen RAM usage spike up to 31GB in games like the BF6 beta, especially with multiple tabs and apps running in the background. More RAM means better performance and less swapping to disk, which can really speed things up. If you can get it for a good price, I’d say go for it!
That’s exactly the game I’m interested in too. I was struggling to maintain stable 150 FPS with my setup, so I’m looking into RAM now. Glad to hear your thoughts on this!
