RAM TEST

The test was conducted on the base configuration Core i 9 13900K with 32 GB DDR5 6400 MHz pre-installed memory. All used RAM was taken as an indicator. The RAM test on the entire system was carried out on various video cards without running extraneous applications (browsers, etc.). In the graphics, you can add and remove any resolutions and video cards as desired.

At a resolution of  1920x1080 ,  the consumption of RAM for video cards with 8 gigabytes is 8 gigabytes , with 12 gigabytes 8 gigabytes , with 16 gigabytes 9 gigabytes, with 24 gigabytes 8 gigabytes .

At a resolution of  2560x1440  , the consumption of RAM for video cards with 8 gigabytes is 8 gigabytes , with 12 gigabytes 8 gigabytes , with 16 gigabytes 9 gigabytes with 24 gigabytes 8 gigabytes .

At a resolution of  3840x2160  , the consumption of RAM for video cards with 8 gigabytes is 8 gigabytes , with 12 gigabytes 8 gigabytes , with 16 gigabytes 9 gigabytes with 24 gigabytes 8 gigabytes .
