Makes fuck all difference, the speed of the main RAM hardly contributes anything towards performance.

huh what lol

Exactly what I said. RAM speed makes very little difference - if any to system performance in this context.

With the speed of RAM 10 years ago, yes it makes a difference because it's a bottleneck. With consoles 5 years ago that bottleneck didn't exist.

RAM speed makes hardly any difference.

For example, on PC DDR3 RAM at 1333Mhz Vs 2133Mhz....we're talking about 3-4% tops in terms of raw performance where RAM is important. In gaming, it would likely be even less than that.

Actually the speed of RAM matters more nowadays than it did 10 years ago. RAM has gotten slower relative to the performance of the CPU/GPU and a lot of silicon in the CPU/GPU is there simply to overcome this problem. If RAM had evolved as fast as everything else then we would have faster computers with quite different architectures.

Nothing to do with RAM, you're thinking of on die memory controllers as with latest Intel chips and with with AMD chips where it first started.

That's getting round the problem of the motherboard interconnect bus speed, nothing to do with the speed of the RAM itself.

With RAM and gaming, you need enough of it and that's it. Speed of RAM +/- negligible.
