I recently installed AutoCAD 2006 on my computer and have been using it quite frequently on my normal desktop machine. The problem is that it sometimes will slow everything down to a crawl and just eats up resources. So, I want to get some more RAM for my machine. Currently I am running an AMD64 3200+ on this mobo: http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p_spec.asp?model=RS480M2-IL with 512mb of RAM. So, I have been shopping for 2 more 512mb sticks and here is what I came up with:
Originally I was thinking about getting some Crucial memory (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820146577) but newegg is having a sale on OCZ memory (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820227069) for $30 less. I don't overclock my system, and it is mostly used for CAD software and simulation programs with the occasional FPS being played on it every once in awhile. Should I go for the more expensive memory or go cheap and invest the money elsewhere?
