Every RAM Speed Explained. Which One Should You Buy?

Every RAM speed explained, from DDR4-2133 to DDR5-8000 — what the numbers really mean and when you're just paying for a bigger number.

Is DDR5-6000 worth it over 5600, and is 8000 MT/s RAM faster for gaming? We go through every DDR4 and DDR5 speed: why 6000 MHz RAM really runs a 3000 MHz clock, bandwidth vs latency, dual channel, Ryzen's Infinity Fabric at 3600, the AM5 sweet spot of DDR5-6000 CL30, Intel Gear modes and 1:1 vs 1:2 memory controller ratios. Plus how to check your RAM speed in Task Manager, how to enable XMP or EXPO in the BIOS, two sticks vs four, and which RAM speed you should buy for your PC.

What RAM speed are you using right now? And have you enabled XMP or EXPO? Let me know in the comments.
