I saw a video comparing standard CXMT ram vs high end Kingston and Crucial I think, with faster speeds etc.

Very comparable was the Chinese one.

So I think a lot of buzz (from the before times) about the higher speeds and lower latency etc was for a very small niche market of people. Everyone else including gamers wouldn’t see a difference except in capacity.

Therefore, I welcome our Chinese saviours.

even if it was significantly lower performing many folks don't have the economic situation to pay current prices and would rather have something.
