From what I gather reading this great post/thread, having higher memory clocks as opposed to tighter memory timings does not always translate into better performance. In the scenario described here, CL6@1600MHz might be better than CL10@2133MHz because the former represents 3.75ns of latency in contrast to 4.68ns, which is significantly less latency.
Hence, I am aware that clock speed also affects latency, but what about bandwidth or throughput? Is memory bandwidth only tied to clock speeds, or latency as well? I thought this was more of a matter of how wide the memory bus is in relation to the frequency at which the memory is operating.
Thanks!
