You're welcome. I've not tried any OC on my RAM yet as I've been super busy with study and life in general. The new rig is sat on my desk unsused as I've only recently installed Windows 10 LTSC since I went down a rabbit hole of finding a right (and clean) ISO and ridding the OS of all Microsoft telemetry. Next I need to decide on a suite of benchmark tests as I'd like to properly test the difference of 92mm vs 120mm fan and heatspreaders on the VLP RAM.


I can't say exactly how much better the e-die will perform over d-die but the resultant performance increase over most tasks will be negligible. I'd certainly rather e-die since the 3600 MHz 1:1 with IF will be more easily achieved with the weaker memory controller of Ryzen+ compared to Ryzen 2 or 3 but honestly, you're looking at a difference of 1 or 2 FPS in games.


TLDR: If you can get guaranteed e-die for the same or less money delivered, do it. If postage of e-die is considerably higher then maybe have a think if that money might be better spent on a GPU/CPU.
