Memory Speed Tests

With more CPU cores and threads on tap, there's always the possibility that your CPU could outstrip your memory amount or speed in some circumstances. We switched between 2,400MHz, 2,666MHz and 3,200MHz to perform a few quick tests to see how using 10 cores benefits from faster memory in a few of our usual tests.
