Hello! Is there any goal in use a 32 bit SDRAM memory VS the 16 bit SDRAM memory on STM32F439 device? I want to transfer a 30 fps video from DCMI to 4.3 LCD. Wich SDRAM will be faster? 16 or 32 bit?

4.3 LCD

That doesn't really impart a resolution, which is what would be critical here.

You'd want to look at the SDRAM controller implementation, and the depth of the buffers on it, if nothing else the 32-bit would double the burst bandwidth over a 16-bit part.
