View Single Post - is ddr2 6400 worth the upgrade?

grumpyboy · Rated PG

Hello everyone thanks for taking the time to read my post.

My System has a Intel e6600 using 2 1gb ddr2 5400 running at 5 5 5 15 command rate 2

Im thinking of buying 2 1 gb 4-4-4-12 PC6400

Now I know this will seem a stupid question since the latter memory is better in everyway.

But would the upgrade really make that much difference in real world terms?

I use my machine a lot for games, and im using a 8800 gtx, would the increase in memory throughput increase my fps in games?

I don't fancy spending a hundred 150 bucks for no reason other than to be flashy.
