FWIW : I have a GTX 1070 ( Ubuntu 20.04 ) and opencl makes a very
significant difference for the better.

Looks like your system is stable at 2400MHz so I would leave it there.
However, I see you are running a GTX 1660 as am I. The best thing you
could do to speed up processing if you haven't done it already is to
activate opencl in darktable perferences. I run darktable on Ubuntu
20.04 also but with opencl activated and it is noticeably faster than
leaving the processing to the cpu (not all modules have been
opencl-enabled, though).

Hi
It's actually a bit embarrassing to ask a hardware related question
here, I have never bothered much about hardware in the last 20 years ;-)
But ok, I recently checked my memory clock speed in the BIOS, it's set
to "Auto", which results in 2400 MHz. My memory modules should support
up to 3000 MHz. But when I set to 3000 MHz manually, the machine does
not boot, and I have set it back to "Auto" now.
.
Question: Is it worth to play around with some settings between 2400 MHz
and 3000 MHz? Is there any downside if, say, 2800 MHz works?
And most of all: Does it make any difference for darktable? Darktable is
the only program which challenges my hardware, I'm not a gamer or so.
For the records, my machine is an
ASUS PRIME B450M-A
AMD Ryzen 7 2700X, 8x 3700 MHz
GeForce GTX 1660 StormX OC
4 x 8 GB DDR4 ("Ballistix Sport", 3000 MHz)
running Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS
Thanks in advance, best regards,
Michael
