Hey guys! I am wondering if I would benefit from upgrading my ram from PC2-6400 to PC2-8500?
My motherboard has a FSB of 1333MHz so it should be able to accept PC2-10600 ram, correct? (1333 x 8=10664).
Will I notice any benefit from upgrading to PC2-10600 ram or PC2-8500 and will it be worth the $80-$150 CAN it will probably cost for 2x1GB?
I was thinking of this here: http://www.directcanada.com/products/?sku=11180BD8996&vpn=TWIN2X2048-8500C5DF&manufacture=CORSAIR
I am still running windows XP 32-bit... So would there be any reason to get 2x2gb instead since it won't make use of all the ram anyways? I would like to stay with a dual channel setup.
