Processor vs RAM?
<< < (3/3)
kelemvor:
Well, for now this is my wife's primary PC so it now has 768 in it since my 512 got here already.  But we'll be getting her a new laptop once the BF deals come out and then this PC will become my MAME PC (barring any unfortunate last minute changes).

So I think we'll be fine for now.

Make sure the frequency of your new memory is the same as the old one that you had in your computer.  If your old memory is rated at a lower frequency, your new memory will run at that speed also.  In that case I would recommend removing the old one, so the new RAM will run at the full speed (assuming your mobo can support it, of course).

The difference in such a situation is so miniscule as to be irrelevant unless his PC spends its days running floating point mathematics in some physics simulation.  Even then it wouldn't matter much in the power genre of a desktop.
