Gt ax6000 rog vs ax86u pro

[ronorbar]

What is the best of both, I have seen that the specification is similar and the other has a DDR4

 

[jsz]

Both are DDR4, but may run at a different spec. The FCC certified model of GT-AX6000 had 2666mhz Samsung DDR4, but alt models such as GT-AXE16000 (Flagship) are certified with 2400mhz Samsung chips.

May be RNG.. or run at a custom speed innately. IE: chips are purchased for cost and run at lower/higher speed. I don't know.

Both have same main CPU and 5G radio.

GT-AX6000 has a superior 2.4G radio and second 2.5G Port for WAN/LAN.

Real world performance may be better or worse depending on environment. IE: it's possible that AX86U PRO outperforms GT-AX6000 and vice versa.

The best of both worlds is a setup like I have in my house. GT-AX6000 as the main router and the AX86U as a wired mesh backhaul node. They work great together and they have expanded my WiFi network tremendously.
Having said that..., if you running a mesh system with those two routers, do not upgrade the firmware of the AX6000 to the latest 388 22068, it makes the mesh system completely unreliable with intermittent connectivity at the node, wired or not!

Ax6000 no ddr4

What do you mean? It IS DDR4

For someone asking whats better, it's kind of weird for you to say that.

In the specification it is listed that it has ddr3

Not DDR3. Welcome to the world of Marketing typos.

GT-AX6000's keep showing up "used" on Amazon for less than $225, so I bought a second one. Once again, it appears that someone opened the box, gasped in horror at the size, and returned it. Considering that these things have a fuller range of hardware ports than the RT-AX86U Pro and the RT-AX88U Pro while appearing to have the same or better processor, RAM, and Wi-Fi specs, its hard to not love this router because its so much less expensive than the other two.
