Hello,
I'm not too familiar with how RAM works in regards to channels and speed. Right now I have 4 GB of DDR3 1600 MHz dual channel RAM from Corsair. I have a friend who is getting new RAM and wants to sell me his old RAM which is 8 GB of generic RAM which is triple channel but only 1033 MHz. He wants a cheap amount for it and I am thinking about purchasing it, but I just want to know if I'm lowering my possible performance by going from 1600 MHz to 1033 MHz.
All information is appreciated.
Thanks
