For some reason, all of the high-frequency (4000 MHz+) and tightly-timed (e.g. 3600 MHz CAS 16) 32GB kits are sold in the 4x8GB configuration, and there are very few mentions of  < ="text/">UpToDate 2x16GB kits in motherboard QVL lists.< ="text/">MapQuest

It makes me wonder: Is the 2x16GB configuration sub-optimal? Are DIMM manufacturers just taking the easy out and doubling up 2x8GB kits whenever possible, where they are focusing all their R&D? Are the 4x8GB kits getting higher-binned B-Die?[s 32GB @ 4000 MHz with the lowest latency possible, would I be better served overclocking a DDR4 3733/3866 2x16GB kit, or by tightening the timings on a DDR4 4000 4x8GB kit?Rufus
