01:42:44 <hyc> that's not a quad-channel board is it? if it's only dual channel there's no reason to populate all 4 slots
01:43:31 <hyc> ah it's only dual channel

01:44:44 <hyc> you want the lowest possible latency. filling the channels will slow it down.
08:00:02 <sech1> pauliouk don't go for the higher "mhz" (which is MT/s actually), go for lower latency. DDR5-6400 CL32 will be perfect, then you will have to tweak all the timings and it should get you to 25+ kh/s
08:00:08 <sech1> 2x16 GB is the best
08:01:04 <sech1> but even without tweaking you should get more than 20 kh/s

08:11:00 <sech1> at the same time, top 2 pools in Monero are only at 44% combined right now
09:02:55 <hyc> 44% is still not that far off of 51% 
11:56:00 <pauliouk> its about 1 or 2 botnets away from the 51% mark :/
